Leadership Waned and Major Averages Fell With Higher Volume

Stocks retreated on Tuesday. The Dow was down 200 points to 18128. The S&P 500 lost 26 points to 2136 and the Nasdaq Composite fell 81 points to 5246. The S&P 500 Index and the Dow Jones Industrial Average met resistance near their respective 50 DMA lines and then abruptly retreated. The volume totals were higher than the prior session on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange, revealing an increase in institutional selling pressure. Decliners led advancers by nearly 7-1 on the NYSE and 5-1 on the Nasdaq exchange. There were only 13 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that made new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, versus 60 on the prior session.  New 52-week highs outnumbered new 52-week lows on the NYSE but new lows outnumbered new highs on the Nasdaq exchange.
