Major Indices Slumped as Leadership Remained Thin

The major indices lost ground on Thursday. The volume totals were higher than the prior session on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. Breadth was negative as decliners led advancers by more than a 4-1 margin on the NYSE and more than a 3-1 margin on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 5 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 10 on the prior session. New 52-week lows totals expanded and solidly outnumbered shrinking new 52-week highs on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. The market averages are in an uptrend under pressure (M criteria). New buying efforts should be made only in stocks meeting all key criteria of the fact-based investment system.

PICTURED: The Nasdaq Composite Index met resistance near its 50-day moving average (DMA) line and has slumped back toward the prior low.

Ten of the 11 S&P 500 sectors logged a decline with real estate (-2.4%) showing the biggest loss. Treasuries had a volatile reaction to Fed Chair Powell's comments, which drove some turbulent action in equities, too. The 10-yr note yield ultimately settled at a new cycle high yield of 4.99%. The 2-yr note yield declined five basis points to 5.17%.

On the earnings front, Tesla (TSLA -9.30%) gapped down after missing earnings and revenue estimates. Netflix (NLFX +16.05%) posted a large gain after blowing past subscriber addition estimates.
