Major Indices Rose Slightly With Lighter Volume Totals

The Dow Jones Industrial Average led as the major indices posted small gains on Wednesday. Volume was lighter than the prior session on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. Advancers led decliners by almost 5-4 on the NYSE and 4-3 on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 87 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, versus the total of 86 on the prior session. New 52-week highs outnumbered new 52-week lows on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. The major indices are in a confirmed uptrend (M criteria). New buying efforts should be only made in stocks fitting all key criteria of the fact-based investment system.

PICTURED: The Dow Jones Industrial Average challenged its August 31st high and closed less than -2% off its 52-week high while posting its 11th gain in the span of 13 sessions. 

The 2-yr note yield rose nine basis points to 4.91% and the 10-yr note yield also rose nine basis points to 4.54%. Hope that the Fed is done raising rates contributed to the positive bias while the latest economic data seemed consistent with a soft landing scenario for the economy.  

Target (TGT +18.01%) gapped up for a considerable volume-driven gain following better-than-expected earnings results. Seven of the 11 S&P 500 sectors rose. Consumer staples (+0.7%), communication services (+0.6%), and financials (+0.6%) led gainers while the energy (-0.3%), utilities (-0.3%), and information technology (-0.1%) sectors fell.

Total retail sales declined 0.1% month-over-month in October and sales, excluding autos, increased just 0.1%. The retail sales data are not adjusted for inflation, so these weak month-over-month changes signify a weakening in demand for goods. The Producer Price Index declined 0.5% month-over-month and was up just 1.3% year-over-year versus 2.1% in September. Excluding food and energy, the index for final demand was unchanged month-over-month and up 2.4% year-over-year versus 2.7% in September.

President Biden and President Xi met at the APEC Summit and gave introductory remarks, but there was no public discussion of policy issues. President Biden will hold a press conference tonight.
