PICTURED: The S&P 500 Index pulled back from a new record high with a loss on higher volume.

Big gains for the major indices were noted in prior commentaries and that bullish action signaled a new "confirmed uptrend" for the market (M criteria). See thFeatured Stocks Pagewhich now lists a few noteworthy candidates that have made headway.

The major averages pulled back from record highs on Tuesday as investors digested mixed updates on the economy. On the data front, a gauge of inflation showed that consumer prices were unchanged in July, in-line with analyst expectations. A separate report showed housing starts increased by 2.1% in July. In Fed news, New York Fed President William Dudley stated an interest rate increase next month is possible.

Nine of 10 sectors in the S&P 500 finished lower on the session. In the consumer space, Hain Celestial (HAIN -26.31%) tumbled as the company delayed its quarterly results release. TJX Companies (TJX -5.80%) fell after its full-year guidance fell short of analyst estimates. Shares of Home Depot (HD -0.61%) fell despite the company raising its full-year profit forecast. On the M&A front, Cintas Corp (CTAS +5.19%) after agreeing to acquire G&K Services (GK +17.74%) for $2.2 billion. Dick Sporting Goods (DKS +7.05%) was a notable gainer after quarterly revenue beat expectations.

Treasuries declined with the benchmark 10-year note down 4/32 to yield 1.57%. In commodities, NYMEX WTI crude gained 1.9% to $46.59/barrel. COMEX gold was up 0.8% to $1350.50/ounce. In FOREX, the yen surged 1% against the dollar.
