TODAY'S SPECIAL NOTICE

The solid +1.62% gain from the Nasdaq Composite Index with slightly higher volume narrowly registered as a follow-through day confirming a new uptrend (M criteria). New buying may be justified only in stocks meeting all key criteria as they rise from sound bases. Patience and discipline are always important.   


Nasdaq Composite Index Led Major Indices in New Rally

The Nasdaq Composite rallied 1.6%, while the Dow advanced 194 points. The S&P 500 climbed 1.0%, on track for a weekly gain of 3.3%. Still, the broad benchmark remains poised for its worst first half of a year since 1970 (-20.4%).Volume totals reported were mixed, lighter than the prior session on the NYSE and higher on the Nasdaq exchange. Advancers led decliners by a 3-2 margin on the NYSE and 5-3 on the Nasdaq exchange. Leadership remained thin as 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 3 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 Nasdaq Composite Index posted a +1.62% gain with slightly higher volume, and coupled with an increase in the number of stocks hitting new highs, the action marked a follow-through on Day 4 of the new rally attempt. The action was not extremely bullish, yet it may serve as an early confirmation day for a new market uptrend (M criteria). A sustainable rally will require an expansion in the number of stocks hitting new highs, so the days ahead still require great caution and discipline behind any new buying efforts.

U.S. stocks ended higher during a volatile session on Thursday as investors weighed the risk of a looming recession.  Concerns surrounding persistent inflation, aggressive Federal Reserve (Fed) policy tightening, and slowing economic growth are among the contributors to this year’s steep sell-off. 

Additional comments from Fed Chair Jerome Powell were in focus during his second day of congressional testimony. Powell reiterated the Fed’s “unconditional” commitment to battling the highest inflation in over four decades, and noted officials would be hesitant to lower rates until there was clear evidence of easing price pressures. Yesterday, the Fed chief acknowledged the risk of a recession as engineering a soft landing was proving to be “significantly more challenging,” and that policymakers would continue to make decisions on a meeting-by-meeting basis.

Treasuries rallied, with the 10-year note yield falling six basis points (0.06%) to 3.09%. On the data front, weekly initial jobless claims came in at 229,000, still underscoring a tight labor market. Separately, preliminary readings of U.S. business activity from S&P Global revealed growth in the manufacturing and services sectors slowed more than anticipated in June. However, both updates showed some signs of softening input price inflation.

Seven of 11 S&P 500 sectors finished in positive territory with defensive-oriented groups outperforming. Energy lagged as West Texas Intermediate crude slid 2.1% to $103.93/barrel.

G - Today's loss is retesting support near its 200 DMA line ($103.59) and prior low ($101.79 on 6/16/22. More damaging losses would be a worrisome sign. A rebound and close above the 50 DMA line ($108.86) is needed for its outlook to improve.
