Major Averages Edge Higher With Lighter Volume Totals

The S&P 500 inched 0.1% higher, while the Dow added 90 points. The Nasdaq Composite retreated 0.4%, as Tech shares underperformed. All three indexes remain on track for their best month of the year. The volume totals reported were lighter than the prior session on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange, revealing lackluster institutional buying demand. Breadth was positive as advancers led decliners by a 3-2 margin on the NYSE. however, decliners narrowly outnumbered advancers on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 10 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit new 52-week high and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, versus the total of 7 on the prior session. New 52-week lows totals expanded and outnumbered new 52-week highs totals on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. The market uptrend is under pressure (M criteria). Any sustainable rally requires a healthy crop of leading stocks hitting new highs, but leadership has been very thin.

PICTURED: The S&P 500 Index recently rebounded above its 50-day moving average (DMA) line. It remains well below its 200 DMA line.

U.S. stocks fluctuated on Monday as investors braced for a busy week of earnings and the Federal Reserve’s (Fed) upcoming meeting. The Fed is expected to hike rates by 75-basis points (0.75%) on Wednesday, as officials aim to combat inflation. On the data front, the Chicago Fed National Activity Index came in unchanged at -0.19 in June. On Thursday, an update on second-quarter U.S. Gross Domestic Product should garner attention as a looming recession remains front of mind. Treasuries weakened, with the yield on the 10-year note up five basis points (0.05%) to 2.81%. The two-year note yield rose four basis points (0.04%) to 3.02%. Notably, the inversion between the two yields is near its most negative territory since 2000.

In earnings, roughly a third of S&P 500 companies will report this week. Newmont Corp. (NEM -13.23%) fell after posting a quarterly loss that was down nearly 41% from last year. Eight of 11 S&P 500 sectors closed in positive territory, with Energy outperforming amid a back-up in oil prices. West Texas Intermediate crude climbed 2.2% to $96.78/barrel.

Last Friday, all three averages posted their best weekly performance in a month. Contrarian buy signals supported risk assets, while better-than-feared profit tallies aided sentiment. Still, an inversion of the yield curve persisted as the European Central Bank’s rate hike and disappointing economic data fueled recessionary worries. However, a retreating U.S. dollar offered a bright spot.

G - Suffered a 3rd volume-driven loss in the span of 4 sessions and its color code is changed to green after slumping back below its 50 DMA line ($116). A prompt rebound above the 50 DMA line is needed for its outlook to improve. Subsequent volume-driven gains above the pivot point may trigger a technical buy signal. Reported Jun '22 quarterly earnings +34% on -2% sales revenues versus the year ago period. Faces some resistance due to overhead supply up to the $133 level.
