Small Cap Indexes Rose While the 3 Major Indices Fell

The Russell 2000 outperformed with a +1.1% gain while the S&P 500 (-0.2%), Nasdaq Composite (-0.1%), and Dow Jones Industrial Average (-0.1%) each closed with small losses. Volume reported was lower than the prior session totals on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. Breadth was slightly positive as advancers narrowly led decliners on the NYSE and by 11-9 on the Nasdaq exchange. Leadership improved as there were 93 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, more than doubling the total of 45 on the prior session. New 52-week highs totals expanded and solidly outnumbered new 52-week lows on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. The major indices are in an uptrend that has been encountering pressure (M criteria). Remember that any uptrend requires healthy leadership and it remains important for a countining flow of stocks hitting new highs.

PICTURED: The S&P 500 Index is consolidating after recently reaching new all-time highs.

UPS (UPS -12.06%) was among the losing standouts after missing earnings estimates. NXP Semiconductors (NXPI -7.58%) also was a notable loser following their quarterly results. Spotify (SPOT +11.98%), Lockheed Martin (LMT +5.63%), and Sherwin-Williams (SWH +6.87%) were winning standouts following their reports.

Only three of the S&P 500 sectors rose, materials (+0.4%), financials (+0.1%), and consumer discretionary (+0.02%). The energy (-1.6%), utilities (-0.7%), and consumer staples (-0.3%) sectors registered the largest declines. The 10-yr note yield declined two basis points to 4.24% and the 2-yr note yield settled four basis points lower at 4.48%.

It powered to a new all-time high with today's 4th consecutive volume-driven gain triggering a technical buy signal . It tested its 50-day moving average (DMA) line ($82.59) and has ralllied from an advanced "ascending base".

Through Mar '24 its quarterly earnings growth has been strong and well above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). After years of steadily shrinking losses it has shown great earnings growth in FY '22 and '23. The company has a 98 Earnings Per Share Rating.

The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 287 in Sep '23 to 437 in Jun '24, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria.

Repeatedly noted - "A gain backed by at least +40% above average volume and a close above the new pivot point cited based on its 5/28/24 high plus 10 cents may trigger a proper technical buy signal. Important support is at its 50 DMA line ($54.60)." See the latest FSU analysis for more details and a new annotated graph.
