Major Indices Slump With Higher Volume Again
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
The S&P 500 lost 0.9% and capped its worst start to a year since 1970 with an 8.4% monthly decline. The Dow shed 253 points, extending its June drawdown to 6.7%. Both benchmarks notched their largest quarterly losses since the pandemic-induced slump during the start of 2020, falling 16.5% and 11.3%, respectively. Meanwhile, the Nasdaq Composite lost 1.3% for the day and 8.7% for the month, pushing the index to its worst three-month period since 2008 (-22.4%). Volume totals reported were higher than the prior session on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange, indicative of greater institutional selling pressure termed "distribution". Decliners led advancers by a 3-2 margin on the NYSE and by 5-4 on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 3 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, versus the total of 1 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. Solid gains from all major averages last Friday with much higher volume, coupled with an increase in the number of stocks hitting new highs, marked a powerful follow-through day confirming a new market uptrend (M criteria). However, any sustainable rally requires a healthy crop of leading stocks hitting new highs and leadership has been very thin.
Chart courtesy of www.stockcharts.com PICTURED: The Dow Jones Industrial Average suffered a loss with higher volume. It remains well below its 50-day and 200-day moving average (DMA) lines.
U.S. stocks finished firmly lower on Thursday, as a disappointing update on consumer spending renewed recessionary concerns. On the data front, personal spending rose just 0.2% in May, while real personal spending (adjusted for inflation) declined 0.4%. Separately, the MNI Chicago Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) print dipped more than forecasted. Another release revealed weekly initial jobless claims came in at 231,000, near the highest level since January. Offering a bright spot, the core PCE Deflator (the Federal Reserve’s preferred proxy for inflation) climbed 4.7% year-over-year last month, the smallest gain since November. Treasuries strengthened, with the yield on the two-year note settling below 3% for the first time since early June. The benchmark 10-year note yield shed 0.07% to 3.02%.
Eight of 11 S&P 500 sectors finished in negative territory, with Utilities, Industrials and Real Estate bucking the downtrend. Energy lagged with West Texas Intermediate crude falling 3.7% to $105.73/barrel, posting its first monthly decline since November. Adding to downbeat sentiment, luxury furniture retailer RH (RH -10.56%) fell after slashing its 2022 outlook for the second time in less than a month.
