Distributional Pressure Weighs on Market

The Dow gained 92 points, to hit a fresh all-time high, while the S&P 500 ticked up 0.1% to also reach a new record level. The Nasdaq Composite lost less than 0.1%.  Decliners led advancers by an 8-7 margin on the NYSE and 3-2 on the Nasdaq exchange. Volume totals reported were higher than the prior session on both major exchanges, indicative of distributional pressure. Leadership thinned as there were 38 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 64 on the prior session. New 52-week highs totals solidly outnumbered new 52-week lows totals on the NYSE but new lows outnumbered new highs 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 is perched at its record high. 

U.S. equities finished mixed Wednesday as investors digested central bank news and trade uncertainty. In central bank news, Fed Chair Jerome Powell reiterated that the current state of monetary policy is likely to remain unchanged, contingent on the economy’s ability to sustain growth. However, investor sentiment was dented by reports that U.S.-China trade talks hit a roadblock over agricultural purchases, intellectual property, and tariff roll backs.

Treasuries advanced, with the yield on the 10-year note losing three basis points to 1.88%. On the data front, consumer prices rose 0.4% last month, jumping the highest level in seven months. Core CPI (excluding food and energy) gained 2.3% year-over-year in October, slowing slightly from the previous 2.4% pace. In commodities, WTI crude rose 0.8% to $57.25/barrel, while COMEX gold gained 0.8% to $1,464.50/ounce despite the U.S. dollar climbing to the highest point in a month.

Six of 11 S&P 500 sectors ended the session in positive territory with Utilities and Real Estate outperforming. Shares of Walt Disney Co. (DIS +7.32%) jumped to record levels after its new streaming service Disney+ topped 10 million subscribers. In earnings, Skyworks Solutions (SWKS -0.44%) edged lower despite the chipmaker exceeding Wall Street earnings and revenue expectations. Energizer Holdings (ENR +15.19%) rallied following its top and bottom line beat. Canada Goose (GOOS -10.84%) fell after releasing warnings of lower wholesale revenues.

Commodity-linked groups were mixed as the Oil Services Index ($OSX -2.35%) outpaced the Integrated Oil Index ($XOI -0.56%) to the downside while the Gold & Silver Index ($XAU +0.71%) notched a standout gain.
