S&P 500 Index Hits New Record High
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam

The Dow added 132 points, while the S&P 500 rose 0.6%. The Nasdaq Composite was up 1%. Monday's volume totals reported were mixed, higher than the prior session total on the Nasdaq exchange but lighter on the NYSE. Advancers led decliners by an 8-7 margin on the NYSE and 3-2 on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 79 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 62 on the prior session. New 52-week highs outnumbered new 52-week lows on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. The major indices (M criteria) are in a "confirmed uptrend" after enduring distributional pressure in recent weeks. The Featured Stocks Page provides the most timely analysis on high-ranked leaders.

PICTURED: The S&P 500 Index hit a new record high.

Stocks advanced Monday, with the S&P 500 notching a fresh record closing high. Positive developments on the U.S.-China trade front and generally strong corporate earnings results helped boost risk sentiment, sending Treasury yields to six-week highs. President Trump commented that Washington is “ahead of schedule” in working to solidify part of a trade deal with Beijing.

In corporate news, Microsoft (MSFT +2.46%) rose after beating out Amazon (AMZN +0.89%) to win a $10 billion cloud computing contract with the Department of Defense. Tiffany & Co. (TIF +31.63%) rose following reports that the luxury retailer has been in merger discussions with Louis Vuitton parent LVMH. In earnings, HSBC (HSBC -3.62%) fell after the lender missed Wall Street profit estimates and slashed its forward guidance. AT&T (T +4.28%) rose after topping analyst expectations for monthly bill-paying subscribers.

Treasuries weakened, with the yield on the 10-year note up four basis points to 1.84%. In commodities, WTI crude lost 1.5% to $55.81/barrel, snapping a four-day winning streak as weak industrial profit data out of China overshadowed trade optimism. COMEX gold fell 0.6% to $1,490.40/ounce.

On the data front, wholesale inventories declined by 0.3% in September, missing projections for a slight uptick. Separate releases revealed the Chicago Fed’s National Activity Index worsened last month, as did manufacturing activity in the Dallas Fed region. An additional report showed the advance goods trade deficit narrowed in September.
