Major Indices Were Mixed While Leadership Improved
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
The S&P 500 finished flat and the Nasdaq Composite declined 0.3%, weighed down by underperforming growth and mega cap stocks. The Russell 2000 climbed 1.1% and the S&P Mid Cap 400 rose 1.2%. The volume totals were higher than the prior session on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. Breadth was positive as advancers led decliners by a 4-3 margin on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 27 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit a new 52-week high and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, versus the total of 14 on the prior session. New 52-week lows totals still solidly outnumbered new 52-week highs on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. The market averages are in an uptrend (M criteria). 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 has rebounded above its 200-day moving average (DMA) line but remains below its 50 DMA line.
Most of the S&P 500 sectors registered a gain led by materials (+1.0%) and energy (+1.0%). The information technology sector (-0.8%) saw the biggest decline.
The September Retail Sales Report revealed that total retail sales were up +0.7% month-over-month following an upwardly revised +0.8% increase (from +0.6%) in August. Retail sales, excluding autos, were up +0.6% month-over-month following an upwardly revised +0.9% increase (from +0.6%) in August. That report fueled increased selling in Treasuries. The 2-yr note yield climbed 11 basis points to 5.20%. The 10-yr note yield settled at 4.85%, 14 basis points higher.
NVIDIA (NVDA -4.68%) was an influential laggard after news that the Biden administration will put more restrictions on China's ability to purchase advanced semiconductors, according to The Wall Street Journal. Meanwhile, Bank of America (BAC +2.33%), Goldman Sachs (GS -1.60%), Lockheed Martin (LMT +0.16%), and Johnson & Johnson (JNJ -0.91%) all reported better than expected earnings, but closed with mixed results.
