Dow Industrials Ended Higher While Other Indices Ended Lower

The S&P 500 closed less than one point higher after being down as much as -1.0%. The Nasdaq Composite traded as low as -1.4% yet it closed only -0.1% lower. The Dow Jones Industrial Average traded down as much as -0.4%, then closed +0.3% higher Volume totals reported were lighter than the prior session total on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange, indicative of lackluster institutional conviction. Decliners led advancers by a narrow margin on the Nasdaq exchange and on the NYSE. There were 38 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, versus the total of 21 on the prior session. New 52-week highs outnumbered new 52-week lows on the NYSE but new lows outnumbered new highs on the Nasdaq exchange for the 5th consecutive session. 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 pulled back for a 4th consecutive loss on Tuesday.

Retailers were noticeably weak after Target's (TGT -21.4%) disappointing guidance. However, many stocks participated in the market's afternoon improvement. 

A fresh $16 billion 20-yr bond auction met weak demand. The 10-yr yield settled four basis points higher at 4.41% and the 2-yr yield settled three basis points higher at 4.30%. Treasury yields initially moved lower after reports indicated that Ukraine fired UK-made missiles into Russia. Fed Governor Bowman (FOMC voter) indicated that she would like to proceed cautiously in bringing down the policy rate.

S&P 500 sector performance was mixed. Health care (+1.2%) and the energy (+1.0%) sector rose, meanwhile the consumer discretionary (-0.6%), financials (-0.3%), and information technology (-0.2%) sectors fell.

Y - Finished strong today with above average volume behind its 4th consecutive gain. Color code was changed to yellow with pivot point cited based on its 10/15/24 high plus 10 cents. Found support recently at its 50 DMA line ($127.73). Subsequent volume-driven gains above the pivot point may trigger a proper technical buy signal. Reported earnings +36% on +37% sales revenues for the Sep '24 quarter versus the year ago period, its 4th quarterly comparison above the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria). Annual earnings history has been strong since its $27 IPO on 4/04/19 and an additional Public Offerings on 10/17/19 and 4/24/20.
