Stocks Reversed Early Gains to End Lower
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
The S&P 500 shed 1.1%, settling back below the psychologically important 4,000 level to log a weekly slide of 3.3%. The Nasdaq Composite slipped 1.3% to decline for the sixth straight day--its longest losing streak since August 2019. The tech-heavy index weathered a five-session drawdown of 4.2%. The Dow wiped out a 370-point advance to end 337 points lower, bringing the blue chip index’s weekly drop to 3%. The volume totals reported were lighter than the prior session on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. Breadth was negative as decliners led advancers by almost a 3-2 margin on the NYSE and by 5-3 on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 0 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, for the 4th consecutive session. New 52-week lows totals solidly outnumbered new 52-week highs on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. The market uptrend is now under pressure (M criteria). Any sustainable rally requires a healthy crop of leading stocks hitting new highs.
Chart courtesy of www.stockcharts.comPICTURED: The S&P 500 Index recently violated its 50-day moving average (DMA) line. Its rebound met resistance near its 200 DMA line in recent weeks.
U.S. equities reversed early session gains to finish lower on Friday as Wall Street closed out a third consecutive downbeat week. Investors assessed the latest jobs report for clues surrounding the size of the Federal Reserve’s (Fed) next rate hike later this month. Meanwhile, news of an extended shutdown of the Nord Stream pipeline--a key European gas conduit--pressured overall sentiment heading into the long holiday weekend.
On the data front, early read-throughs on the Labor Department’s monthly jobs report characterized it as a “Goldilocks” release, neither spurring more aggressive Fed action, nor inciting worries about economic growth. The U.S. economy added 315,000 non-farm payrolls in August, while the unemployment rate unexpectedly climbed to 3.7%. Furthermore, an uptick in the labor force participation rate helped wage inflation steady at 5.2% year-over-year, providing a sign that the jobs market could be softening somewhat, potentially easing pressure on central bank officials to maintain the current pace of jumbo rate hikes.
Treasuries rallied, with the yield on the more Fed-sensitive two-year note down 12 basis points (0.12%) to 3.39% after hitting a fresh 14-year high yesterday. The yield on benchmark 10-year note slipped seven basis points (0.07%) to 3.19%.

Commodity-Linked Groups Rose While Other Groups Fell
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
The Broker/Dealer Index ($XBD -0.91%), Bank Index ($BKX -0.61%), and Retail Index ($RLX -0.33%) each suffered modest losses. Meanwhile, commodity-linked groups rebounded and were big gainers on Friday as the Oil Services Index ($OSX +4.24%), Integrated Oil Index ($XOI +2.28%), and Gold & Silver Index ($XAU +3.55%) each posted solid gains. The tech sector had a negative bias as the Semiconductor Index ($SOX -1.02%) and Biotech Index ($BTK -1.25%) both outpaced the Networking Index ($NWX -0.33%) to the downside.
PICTURED: The Retail Index ($RLX -0.33%) is sputtering back near its 50-day moving average (DMA) line.

Near-term support to watch is at its 50 DMA line ($277).

Y - Testing its 50 DMA line ($36.41) with today's 5th consecutive loss on lighter than average volume while slumping below prior resistance in the $39 area. Confirming gains above the pivot point backed by at least +40% above average volume would be a reassuring sign of fresh institutional buying. See the latest FSU analysis for more details and a new annotated graph.

Y - Posted a small gain today with light volume. Volume totals have been below average while recently wedging back above its pivot point since encountering some distributional pressure. Confirming volume-driven gains for new highs would be a reassuring sign of serious institutional buying demand. Its 50 DMA line ($135.50) defines important near-term support to watch. Fundamentals remain strong.
