Major Indices Suffered Damaging Losses as Leadership Waned
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
The S&P 500 fell 1.4% and the Nasdaq Composite registered a 1.8% loss while the Dow Jones Industrial Average sank 500 points. Volume was reported near the prior session total on the NYSE and lighter on the Nasdaq exchange. Decliners led advancers by more than a 10-1 margin on the NYSE and by more than a 4-1 margin on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 13 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, down abruptly from the total of 128 on the prior session. New 52-week lows totals expanded and outnumbered shrinking new 52-week highs totals 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 S&P 500 Index gapped down retreating from its all-time high.
A hotter than expected CPI (actual 0.3%) and core CPI (actual 0.4%) for January fueled selling interest in both the stock and bond markets.
The Russell 2000 lagged relative to other major indices, dropping 4.0%, due to weakness in regional bank shares that fell under renewed selling pressure today after recent rebound action. This weakness also left the SPDR S&P Regional Banking ETF (KRE) with a 4.2% loss.
Small cap underperformance was also related to worries about growth in a high interest rate environment. The 10-yr note yield, which sat at 4.14% just before the CPI data, settled 14 basis points higher than yesterday at 4.32%. The 2-yr note yield, at 4.44% just before 8:30 ET, jumped 20 basis points today to 4.67%.
Today's robust selling activity left ten of the 11 S&P 500 sectors down at least 1.0%. The rate-sensitive real estate (-1.8%) and utilities (-1.7%) sectors saw some of the largest declines, along with the consumer discretionary sector (-2.0%), which fell under sizable declines in Amazon.com (AMZN 168.64, -3.70, -2.2%) and Tesla (TSLA 184.02, -4.11, -2.2%).
The jump in rates and the hot inflation data created an excuse for profit-taking activity in a market that some participants believe is due for a period of consolidation after a big run that had the S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average set fresh all-time highs.

Bullish action this week came after it reported earnings for the Dec '23 quarter +108% on +16% sales revenues versus the year-ago period. Prior highs in the $49 area define initial support to watch on pullbacks. Prior quarterly and annual earnings history is a good match with the fact-based investment system's fundamental guidelines.

Most Recent Note - 2/12/2024 12:54:30 PM
Y - Hitting a new all-time high with today's 4th consecutive gain backed by ever-increasing volume. Finished strong and managed a best-ever close after highlighted in yellow in the 2/09/24 mid-day report with pivot point cited based on its 1/24/24 high plus 10 cents. Subsequent gains and a close above the pivot point backed by at least +40% above average volume may trigger a conviciing new technical buy signal. Through Dec '23 its quarterly and annual earnings (C and A criteria) history has been strong, a good match with the fact-based investment system's guidelines. Thinly traded firm has only 5.7 million shares outstanding (S criteria), which can contribute to greater price volatility in the event of institutional buying or selling.
