TODAY'S SPECIAL NOTICE

The Nasdaq Composite Index's solid gain on Friday with higher volume and with an expansion in new highs signaled a new market uptrend (M criteria) confirmed by a follow-through day.  New buying efforts should be made only in stocks meeting all key criteria of the fact-based investment system.


Indices Overcame Early Weakness to Post Gains with Lighter Volume

The major indices overcame early weakness and rallied in the afternoon trade, finishing the session near their highs of the day. The volume totals were lighter than the prior session on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange, revealing lackluster buying demand from the institutional crowd. Advancers led decliners by more than a 2-1 margin on the NYSE but decliners led advancers by a narrow margin on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 22 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit a new 52-week high and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, matching the total of 22 on the prior session. New 52-week lows totals still solidly outnumbered new 52-week highs totals on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. The Nasdaq Composite Index's solid gain on Friday with higher volume and with an expansion in new highs signaled a new market uptrend (M criteria) confirmed by a follow-through day.  New buying efforts should be made only in stocks meeting all key criteria of the fact-based investment system.

PICTURED: The Dow Jones Industrial Average posted a 2nd consecutive gain off of the recent low. It is rebounding toward its 200-day moving average (DMA) line but remains well below its 50 DMA line.

There was uncertainty associated with the Israel-Hamas war. Oil prices traded higher in response to the Israel-Hamas conflict, which some fear could turn into a wider regional conflict. WTI crude oil futures rose 4.1% to $86.42/bbl. The move in oil helped drive a 3.5% gain in the S&P 500 energy sector. The industrials sector (+1.6%) was the next best performer, benefitting from outsized gains in its defense components like Northrop Grumman (NOC +11.43%), L3Harris (LHX +9.96%), and Lockheed Martin (LMT +8.93%).
