Major Averages Ended Mixed as Tech Strength Helped Nasdaq Lead

The Dow dropped 232 points (0.7%) while the S&P 500 rose 0.1% and the Nasdaq Composite increased 0.4%. Volume totals reported were higher on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange versus the prior session. Breadth was negative with decliners leading advancers by about a 3-2 margin on the NYSE and by more than 3-2 on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 61 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit a new 52-week high and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, versus the total of 100 on the prior session. New 52-week highs totals contracted but still solidly outnumbered new 52-week lows totals on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. The major indices are in a confirmed uptrend (M criteria). Appropriate new buying efforts may be considered under the fact-based investment system.

PICTURED: The Nasdaq Composite Index hit a new 2023 high and it is up +30.2% year-to-date. It is still -15.9% off its record high hit on 11/22/21.

Four of 11 sectors ended higher after U.S. equities whipsawed in the final hours of trading on Wednesday. The Federal Reserve (Fed) announced they were pausing interest rate hikes in June but indicated potential hikes in future months as the Fed assesses more economic data. On the data front, the monthly U.S. Producer Price Index (PPI) fell more than expected due to cheaper gasoline prices, pointing to continued easing in supply-side inflation.

Treasury yields were mixed today. The yield on the benchmark 10-year note dropped three basis points (0.03%) to 3.80%, while the 30-year bond yield decreased five basis points (0.05%) to 3.88%. The yield on the two-year note, which is more sensitive to changes in Fed policy, increased by three basis points (0.03%) to 4.70%. In commodities, West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude dropped to $68.74/barrel. U.S. crude stockpiles increased by 7.9 million barrels signaling that there is no imminent shortage of supplies.

PICTURED: The Retail ($RLX -0.33%) edged lower on Wednesday, but recent gains helped it hit new 2023 highs.

Fell Below Pivot Point With Recent Volume-Driven Losses

Coca-Cola Consolidated (COKE -$6.76 or -1.03% to $646.89) pulled back below its pivot point with today's 4th consecutive volume-driven loss. Recent lows in the $625 area define important near-term support above its 50-day moving average (DMA) line ($613). Fundamentals remain strong.

COKE was highlighted in yellow in the 5/04/23 mid-day report and covered in more detail that evening with an annotated graph under the headline "COKE is Showing Real Strength".Bullish action came after it reported Mar '23 quarterly earnings +93% on +12% sales revenues versus the year-ago period, continuing its strong earnings track record. COKE has a 99 Earnings Per Share Rating, well above the 80+ minimum for buy candidates. The 5 latest quarterly comparisons were well above the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria). Annual earnings (A criteria) growth has been very strong after a slight downturn in FY '18.

The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 379 in Jun '21 to 480 in Mar '23, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. Its current Up/Down Volume Ratio of 1.0 is an unbiased indication its shares have been under distributional pressure over the past 50 days. It has a Timeliness Rating of A and a Sponsorship Rating of C. There are only 5.8 million shares in the public float which can contribute to greater price volatility due to any buying or selling by the institutional crowd.
