Losses Signal Deeper Correction for Major Indices
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
The major indices lost ground and ended near their lows of the day. The volume totals were mixed, higher than the prior session on the NYSE and lower on the Nasdaq exchange. Breadth was negative as decliners led advancers by more than a 3-1 margin on the NYSE and by a 5-2 margin on the Nasdaq exchange. There were only 4 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, versus the total of 2 on the prior session. New 52-week lows totals expanded and solidly outnumbered new 52-week highs on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. The market averages are in a correction (M criteria). New buying efforts should be avoided until a solid follow-through day signals a new confirmed rally.
PICTURED: The Dow Jones Industrial Average has slumped below its 50-day and 200-day moving average (DMA) lines.
Nine of the 11 S&P 500 sectors declined. The communication services sector (-5.9%) was the worst performer by a wide margin, weighed down by Alphabet. The utilities (+0.5%) and consumer staples (+0.3%) sectors were alone in positive territory at the close. The mood of the market was impacted by a big loss in Alphabet (GOOG -9.60%) following an earnings report that contained some relatively disappointing growth for its cloud business. Meanwhile, Microsoft (MSFT +3.07%) was a winning standout after reporting some impressive growth for its Azure business.
General Dynamics (GD +4.03%), Visa (V +0.94%) and Waste Management (WM +6.10%) each posted gains after impressing with their quarterly results. Boeing (BA -2.54%) and Texas Instruments (TXN -3.49%) both saw sizable declines.
The 10-yr note yield climbed 11 basis points to 4.95% and the 2-yr note yield rose two basis points to 5.12%. The September New Home Sales report showed the strongest annual rate of sales (759,000) since February 2022. Another wave of selling hit the Treasury market following a $52 billion 5-yr note sale that met dismal demand.
In other news, Rep. Mike Johnson (R-LA) was elected Speaker of the House after receiving unanimous Republican support.
