Major Averages Rose With Leadership Expanding
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
The S&P 500 climbed 1.2%, on course for its best month since November 2020 (+7.6%). The Dow added 332 points, while the Nasdaq Composite rose 1.1%. The volume totals reported were mixed, slightly lower than the prior session on the NYSE and higher on the Nasdaq exchange. Breadth was positive as advancers led decliners by a 3-1 margin on the NYSE and about a 5-3 margin on the Nasdaq exchange. Leadership improved as there were 29 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, up from the total of 18 on the prior session. New 52-week lows totals still outnumbered new 52-week highs on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. The market uptrend has been under some pressure (M criteria). Any sustainable rally requires a healthy crop of leading stocks hitting new highs, so the improvement in leadership was a reassuring sign.

PICTURED: The Dow Jones Industrial Average rebounded further above its 50-day moving average (DMA) line. It remains well below its 200 DMA line.

U.S. stocks rallied for a second day on Thursday to hit a seven-week high as investors weighed the likely path of central bank policy tightening in the wake of a downbeat economic report. An advance reading of second-quarter U.S. GDP (Gross Domestic Product) showed the economy unexpectedly contracted at an annualized 0.9% pace during the April-June period following the first-quarter’s -1.6% annualized print. The back-to-back negative readings are flagging the possibility of a technical recession, or two consecutive quarters of economic contraction.

Ten of 11 S&P 500 sectors closed in positive territory, with Communication Services being the lone laggard. Elsewhere, Treasuries rallied as market participants pared back expectations of aggressive Federal Reserve (Fed) rate hikes. The yield on the 10-year note slid 13 basis points (0.13%) to 2.67%, its lowest level since April.

In earnings, Meta Platforms Inc. (META -5.22%) fell after posting its first-ever revenue decline amid a pullback in digital advertising. Elsewhere, Ford Motor Co. (F +6.14%) rose following a top and bottom line beat and boost to its dividend. In other corporate news, Spirit Airlines Inc. (SAVE +5.60%) after agreeing to be acquired by JetBlue Airways Corp. (JBLU -0.36%) in a cash deal worth approximately $3.8 billion.

In other news, weekly initial jobless claims came in at 256,000, while the prior figure was upwardly revised to 261,000. Rounding out the docket, an update from the Kansas City Fed showed manufacturing activity in the region posted a surprise improvement in July.
