Indices Rose With Higher Volume Totals but Less Leadership
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
The Russell 2000 gained 0.1%, the Dow Jones Industrial Average closed 0.3% higher, the S&P 500 climbed 1.0%, and the Nasdaq Composite settled 1.5% higher. The volume reported was higher than the prior session totals on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange, action indicative of institutional accumulation. Breadth was mixed as advancers led decliners by a narrow margin on the NYSE but decliners led advancers by a narrow margin on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 44 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, versus the total of 62 on the prior session. New 52-week highs totals contracted yet still outnumbered new 52-week lows on the NYSE, however new lows outnumbered new highs on the Nasdaq exchange. The major indices are in a confirmed uptrend (M criteria). Disciplined investors know that new buying efforts are only to be made in stocks meeting all key criteria of the fact-based investment system.
PICTURED: The Dow Jones Industrial Average is consolidating well above its 50-day moving average (DMA) line and near its all-time high.
WTI crude oil futures fell -4.5% to $73.70/bbl. The S&P 500 energy sector was the worst performer, dropping -2.6%. The only other sector to close lower was materials (-0.4%). NVIDIA (NVDA +4.1%) was a top performer based on high demand for artificial intelligence products. The information technology sector rose +2.1%, the communication services sector logged a +1.1% gain, and the consumer discretionary sector settled +1.0% higher.
The 10-yr yield settled one basis higher at 4.03% and the 2-yr yield settled two basis points lower at 3.98%. A fresh $58 billion 3-yr note sale met weak demand. |
