Damage to Major Averages Has Look of a More Serious Correction

Stocks finished lower on Wednesday. The Dow was down 77 points to 17959. The S&P 500 lost 13 points to 2097 and the Nasdaq Composite fell 48 points to 5105. The S&P 500 Index and the Dow Jones Industrial Average both slumped below prior lows having the look of a more serious "correction". The volume totals were reported mixed, lighter than the prior session total on the NYSE and higher on the Nasdaq exchange. Breadth was negative as decliners led advancers by more than 3-1 on the NYSE and nearly 3-1 on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 5 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that made new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, versus 15 on the prior session. New 52-week lows solidly outnumbered new 52-week highs on the NYSE and Nasdaq exchange.

PICTURED: The Dow Jones Industrial Average met resistance at its 50-day moving average (DMA) line and slumped to new lows with a streak of losses.

Recent deterioration in the charts of the major averages (M criteria) and less leadership (fewer stocks hitting new highs) are signs of poor market conditions.  Disciplined investors following the fact-based investment system will have a bias toward reducing exposure until recognized strength returns. ThFeatured Stocks Page lists noteworthy high-ranked leaders.

The S&P 500 declined for a seventh-straight session after Federal Reserve officials signaled the case for a rate hike is getting stronger. As expected, the central bank left the benchmark interest rate unchanged ahead of next week’s U.S. presidential election. Policy makers however made no direct nod to a coming rate increase at the December meeting. On the data front, an ADP report showed that 147,000 workers were added to private payrolls in October, the fewest in five months.

All 11 sectors in the S&P 500 finished in negative territory. In Health Care, Allergan (AGN -5.16%) fell after missing analyst estimates on the top and bottom line. Anthem (ANTM +4.74%) rose as enrollment grew by 1.2 million members from a year earlier. AmerisourceBergen (ABC +8.84%) rose after announcing a $1 billion share repurchase plan. In the consumer space, Estee Lauder (EL -5.45%) fell as the cosmetics maker reported lower retail store traffic. Shares of Clorox (CLX -3.20%) after the company reduced its forward earnings guidance.

Treasuries advanced with the benchmark 10-year note up 8/32 to yield 1.79%. In commodities, NYMEX WTI crude retreated 2.6% to $45.47/barrel. COMEX gold gained 0.9% to $1298.90/ounce.

Y - Pulled back on lighter volume today following 2 big volume-driven gains. Highlighted in yellow with pivot point cited based on its 9/20/16 high plus 10 cents in the 10/27/16 mid-day report. Subsequent volume-driven gains for new highs may trigger a technical buy signal following a base-on-base pattern. Found support above prior highs in the $18 area during its quiet consolidation and little resistance remains due to overhead supply.
