The Nasdaq composite pared a 1.2% intraday gain to xx by the close as sellers maintained the upper hand. The S&P 500 extended its losing streak to three sessions and closed below its 50-day line. JPMorgan and Alamos Gold are pulling back in constructive fashion, while biotech Argenx broke out powerfully.

The JOLTS survey revealed a cooling job market ahead of Friday’s employment report. The new data also raised the odds of a 50–basis-point rate cut by the Federal Reserve at the late-September meeting. MakeMyTrip reclaimed its 50-day with conviction after Tuesday’s selloff; Tyler Technologies is building a new base; DaVita is holding in a buy zone.

The stock market rally sold off after the long holiday. The S&P 500, in a new power trend and on the cusp of a new high, retreated to its 21-day line. The Nasdaq tumbled below its 50-day and 21-day lines, with Nvidia selling off. Freshpet moved back into a buy zone, but slashed gains. CyberArk fell, but held up relatively well.

The stock market rally finished a mixed week with the Nasdaq retreating but trying to regain a key level. The S&P 500 has entered a power trend, a bullish sign for the market rally but not necessarily a buy signal. Broadcom is setting up with earnings on tap. Comfort Systems and NextEra Energy are near buy points.

The Nasdaq composite reversed lower after rising 1.3% intraday. Despite the selling, breadth was positive on both exchanges: Less than 2 to 1 positive on the Nasdaq and nearly 3 to 1 positive on the NYSE. ServiceNow and GE Aerospace tried to clear buy points; Wingstop is building a new base.

The Nasdaq composite closed below its 50-day moving average, and the S&P 500 marked its first distribution day since the Aug. 13 follow-through day. Declining stocks beat advancers by more than 2 to 1 on the Nasdaq. The ratio was less than 2 to 1 negative on the NYSE. Palantir is pulling back in light volume after an earnings rally; TransDigm is back near highs in a shallow cup base; investment bank Evercore is holding gains well after a recent breakout.

The major indexes had another quiet session as investors choose not to make any big new moves ahead of Nvidia earnings. Nvidia is setting up though. Meanwhile, two recent new issues, GE Vernova and Ardent Health, flashed buy signals Tuesday, at least intraday.

The Dow Jones industrial average hit a new all-time high intraday but the power didn’t last. The Dow and Russell 2000 fared the best but weakness in technology dragged down the Nasdaq composite and S&P 500. Still, the pause here isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Sprouts Farmers Market showed a nice pop above 100 after consolidating gains from its last earnings report. Netflix looks like it could but in a handle here as it hits all-time highs and MercadoLibre might give an add on entry as it consolidates around 2000.

The Nasdaq came down to its 50-day moving average Thursday ahead of Jerome Powell’s speech Friday morning in Jackson Hole. Traders are still leaning toward 100 basis points in rate cuts over the next three Fed meetings. On Holding fell in light volume after Wednesday’s breakout attempt; PDD is a rare bright spot in China; DoorDash is setting up in a nice base.

Breadth was solid again with winners beating losers on the Nasda by about 2 to 1. The ratio was nearly 3 to 1 positive on the NYSE. Annual nonfarm payrolls were revised lower by 818,000, but the stock market took the news in stride. Procept soared after the company received FDA clearance for a next-generation surgical robot; Applovin is near the top of a short consolidation; Birkenstock is still in a buy zone ahead of next week’s earnings report.

The major indexes retreated modestly after several big gains, a well-deserved break after several strong gains. A pause also makes sense with Fed chief Powell’s big speech and Nvidia earnings coming up. Palo Alto Networks and Netflix flashed buy signals while Meta is trading just below a buy point.

Indexes tacked on more gains to last week’s stellar returns. All 11 sectors of the S&P 500 were up and tech is back in the lead. Coupang cleared an early entry at 23 and is on its way to a 52-week high. Spotify had a milder, but still strong move from a tight area and Apple is on the threshold of a buy point.

Mike Webster and Justin Nielsen walk through this week's technical action and stocks to watch in the Friday extended version of Stock Market Today.

The major indexes rose powerfully, staging a subsequent follow-through day. The S&P 500 is clearly above the 50-day line with the Nasdaq topping that key level intraday. Nvidia and Shake Shack offered buy signals. So did Tesla, with caveats.

The major indexes held and slightly added to Tuesday’s follow-through day gains. The S&P 500 is testing its 50-day line. Ferrari and Allstate cleared buy points, while Netflix flashed an early entry.

The Nasdaq led a strong market session, with a tame PPI inflation report providing a catalyst. A number of leading stocks flashed buy signals. But the CPI inflation report is on tap.

Indexes are trying to make progress but so far the positives haven’t been enough to counterbalance the negatives of last week. Nvidia had a strong day for the 21-day line will be an important hurdle for it to conquer. By contrast, Vista Energy took the upside reversal from yesterday and built on it with unwavering power. Meanwhile, Curtiss-Wright showed a similar pattern among IBD 50 stocks.

Selling accelerated in the market and few things were spared as the major indexes lost support at moving averages. It was an expectation breaker given the strength of the prior day. AstraZeneca still managed to breakout of a flat base. NextEra joined utilities in a rally with a follow-up to its move above its 50-day line Thursday. T-Mobile also had a nice follow-up to its 50-day line test and retook a flat-base buy point at 182.67.

Stocks started off strong as tech earnings revived AI optimism, then added to gains as Fed chief Jerome Powell sees rate cuts starting as soon as September. The S&P 500 rallied above its 50-day line while the Russell 2000 hit a fresh multiyear high. But a slew of earnings and other news is still on tap this week.

The Dow Jones and Russell 2000 rose Tuesday while the Nasdaq tumbled heading into big tech earnings and the Fed decision. A strong start finished flat, with plenty of reasons to be cautious this week. Between a Fed meeting, earnings reports, jobs reports, there might be some jostling valuations amongst investors.

The S&P 500 and Nasdaq came off Thursday’s lows, but later gave up intraday gains. Nvidia slashed early losses as it battles AI fatigue fears, but it’s got work to do. ServiceNow spiked higher on earnings, breaking out, while TechnipFMC moved back into a buy zone on its results.

The major indexes sold off, with the Nasdaq undercutting its 50-day line. Tesla and Google led the decline, with a slew of techs sliding in sympathy, including Microsoft. Selling was broad, though small caps and non-tech sectors don’t look as damaged. Tenet Healthcare and Fiserv broke out on earnings.

The major indexes edged lower Tuesday, while small caps had another strong gain. GE Aerospace, HCA Healthcare and Pentair flashed buy signals on earnings.

An earnings sell-off for Domino’s Pizza fueled more selling in the restaurant group. Copper fell sharply resulting in a 4% drop for the Mining-Metal Ores group. Homebuilders rallied again but most stocks in the group faded after strong starts. Blackstone reported earnings and is still in a buy zone; biotech Vertex continues to show strength and support; Eldorado Gold is still in a buy zone.

Chip stocks fell hard on reports the Biden administration is considering tougher export curbs to limit China’s access to advanced chip technology. But breadth wasn’t too bad, with losers beating winners on both exchanges by less than 2 to 1. Consumer staple stocks outperformed, along with energy, health care, financial and real estate stocks. Sellers knocked Nvidia and Eli Lilly lower, but Tenet Healthcare is trading tightly near its 10-week moving average.

The market rally is continuing a near-ideal rotation. Megacaps are taking a much-need pause. Meanwhile, small caps, the Dow Jones and a slew of sectors taking the lead, with a number of stocks flashing buy signals, including Toast, Uber and Woodward.

An assassination attempt on former president Trump boosted his election prospects and the market saw gains. The Dow Jones Industrial Average and Russell 2000 continued to make progress as the new index leadership. Energy was the best performing sector and Diamondback Energy showed a breakout. Financials also saw a boost and JPMorgan recovered from an earnings reaction decline. Finally, software might be on the rise again and CrowdStrike showed an upside reversal for the day.

Consumer prices cooled in June which fueled more bond buying. The 10-year Treasury yield hit its lowest level since March and fell 8 basis points to around 4.20%. Despite sharp declines for the Nasdaq and S&P 500, market breadth was overwhelmingly positive. KB Home and Urban Outfitters gave buy signals, while Apple’s decline was orderly.

The Nasdaq composite jumped 1.2% and marked its sixth straight all-time closing high. But breadth was so-so, with winners beating losers by less than 2-to-1 as software and restaurant stocks lagged again. Newmont and Ensign gave buy signals while CyberArk is setting up.

The S&P 500 and Nasdaq hit fresh high Tuesday morning, but key indexes closed little changed amid mixed action beneath the surface. Brazilian jet maker Embraer flashed a buy signal while Diamondback Energy made a bullish move. Cava fell solidly, perhaps getting a long-awaited shakeout, but coming as more restaurant stocks struggle.

With the Nasdaq composite’s run last week, a little consolidation of gains is just what the doctor ordered. Better yet, there are still stocks setting up nicely. Carpenter Technology got another bounce from its 50-day line and Ollie’s Bargain Outlet is trying to move out of a three-weeks tight pattern. But a dive in Chipotle Mexican Grill is a helpful reminder to pay attention to sell rules.

Mike Webster and Justin Nielsen walk through this week's technical action and stocks to watch in the Friday extended version of Stock Market Today.

The Nasdaq and S&P 500 hit fresh all-time highs as a weak ISM services reading hit Treasury yields and raised Fed rate cut hopes. The jobs report looms Friday though. Chips and other techs were strong, with ASML back in a buy zone. But plenty of stocks from other sectors flashed buy signals, including Tencent Music and Angico-Eagle Mines.

The Nasdaq, buoyed by Tesla and most megacaps, moved toward record highs, slightly extended from the 50-day line, even as small caps remain below that key level. Weatherford is among energy plays making bullish moves, while Goldman Sachs and other bank giant are around buy points.  Novo Nordisk fell at the open on news, but bounced back quickly.

With the downside reversal on Friday, you would expect weakness to follow. But the market indexes are still showing resilience and refuse to go down. You can credit the megacaps again. Take Meta which showed signs of support around 500. But there are also a few others setting up. Retailer Ollie’s Bargain Outlet is holding tight just under 100 after a nice quick pop following earnings and IBD Long-term Leader Synopsys found support at its 21-day line.

Mike Webster and Alissa Coram walk through this week's technical action and stocks to watch in the Friday extended version of Stock Market Today.

Winners had a slight edge over losers on both exchanges. Investors bought bonds, sending the 10-year yield lower by 3 basis points to 4.28% ahead of key inflation data point Friday. Meta Platforms cleared a 514.01 entry in light volume, while Monday.com and ServiceNow cleared trendlines.

Declining stocks had a slight edge over advancers on both exchanges. The Nasdaq’s advance/decline line has been on a downtrend for more than a month.

After a few days with the Dow and non-tech sectors leading while AI plays tumbled, the market shifted back to Nvidia and the Nasdaq. A one-day blip or a reversion to the old AI trend? Meta Platforms, Novo Nordisk and MercadoLibre flashed buy signals.

Even though some of the star players are coming down, there seem to be some understudies waiting in the wings. Sprouts Farmers Market got our “ants” signal but tightened up afterward. Now, it’s found support at its 10-week line. Insurance companies continue to show relative strength as Hartford Financial staged a breakout today. Healthcare stocks are right there too with Merck coming up to prior resistance and setup to breakthrough.

Is the party over or just moving locations? The downside reversal on Thursday is certainly affecting Nvidia as it continued to weaken, but other megacaps are picking up the slack. Alphabet is looking at a closing high after moving above a three-weeks-tight area and Spotify found support at its 21-day moving average line.

Losers had a slight edge over winners on both exchanges. The S&P 500 turned lower after poking above the 5,500 level, while blue chips finally enjoyed a day of outperformance. China-based Kanzhun and Chubb are close to breaking out of downtrends, while Palantir might be adding a handle to its current pattern.

The stock market had a relatively quiet pre-holiday session, with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq holding around record highs. The latter is somewhat extended, something to consider when analyzing possible buys and sells. ELF Beauty broke out, while Goldman Sachs and Granite Construction are right on the cusp of early entries.

The Nasdaq led a solid advance on Monday, with the 18,000 level looking like a magnet to the upside. But the faster the market rises, the harder it may pull back. The tech-heavy index is now nearly 9% above its 50-day moving average and well above its 21-day line. Today’s sharp move could mean the risk of a steeper pullback is now elevated. Among individual stocks, On Holding (ONON) reversed higher after testing a critical support area. GE Aerospace (GE) cleared a trendline entry and Carvana (CVNA) bounced off a key psychological level.

Mike Webster and Alissa Coram walk through this week’s technical action and stocks to watch in the Friday extended version of Stock Market Today.

The Nasdaq hit another all-time best thanks to a few big caps, and is starting to look extended. The S&P 500 set a closing high. But the Dow and Russell 2000 fell, struggling around the 50-day line, though they came off early afternoon lows. Chipotle cleared a short consolidation while Universal Health held a buy zone. GE Aerospace fell through its 50-day.

The S&P 500 and Nasdaq hit fresh record highs while small caps jumped, fueled by a tame CPI report before the open. Stocks largely held their gains despite a somewhat-hawkish Fed rate outlook, but then faded late in the session. Booking Holding broke out while Fair Isaac made a bullish move. KB Home soared initially, but slashed gains as Treasury yields pared losses.

Stocks closed mixed but near session highs. Apple surged out of a base, driving the Nasdaq to a record high. Arista Networks flashed a buy signal while Lam Research is trading around buy points. The CPI inflation report is due early Wednesday with the Fed’s “dot-plot” rate outlook on tap in the afternoon.

Winners were evenly split with losers on both exchanges as the Nasdaq composite and S&P 500 trade tightly near highs. The 10-year Treasury yield rallied again after surging 15 basis points Friday. General Motors broke out powerfully from a flat base.

Mike Webster and Alissa Coram walk through this week’s technical action and stocks to watch in the Friday extended version of Stock Market Today.

Decliners beat advancers by less than 2-to-1 on both exchanges as gold stocks outperformed. Data center stocks like Vertiv and Modine Manufacturing fell hard again, but the session served up several strong gainers. Pinterest cleared a trendline after a low-volume pullback; Wheaton Precious Metals bounced nicely off its 50-day moving average; Coinbase is forming the right side of a base.

The ADP employment came in weaker than expected, raising expectations that the first Federal Reserve rate cut will come at the September meeting. Friday’s employment report still looms large. CrowdStrike soared after reporting earnings, but there’s a caveat; ASML gapped up to the top of a 13-week consolidation; Oscar Health is firming up after a pullback.

The major indexes were firm Tuesday, with the Nasdaq and S&P 500 near record highs. But market breadth was weak, with small caps falling back below the 50-day line. Spotify and Novo Nordisk cleared buy points while GE Aerospace is finding key support, working on a new base.

There was a lot to talk about in the market after Friday’s reversal. The NYSE had some glitches that led to some wrong prices in Warren Buffet’s Berkshire Hathaway (BRKA) and others. Elections in Mexico and India had very different effects on those stocks and the CEO of Lattice Semiconductor (LSCC) found greener pastures at Coherent (COHR). On top of that you also had some good looking charts in the Domino’s (DPZ) as restaurant stocks continue to set up. Medical is also coming on strong with Regeneron (REGN) following up on its reversal last week.

The 10-year Treasury yield took a breather after two days of sharp gains. Despite losses for the major stock indexes, breadth was slightly positive on the Nasdaq and about 3-to-1 positive on the NYSE. Chubb is back in a buy zone after a low-volume pullback. ISRG tried to clear a flat base again to no avail while UHS cleared a cup-with-handle base.

The Nasdaq pared losses while the S&P 500 traded in a tight range and closed comfortably above its 21-day line. Losers beat winners on the NYSE by more than 5-to-1; the ratio was nearly 3-to-1 negative on the Nasdaq. Cava reversed higher after falling nearly 10% intraday; Dutch Bros is back in rally mode after some post-earnings softness; Robinhood is back in a buy zone after the company announced a big share buyback.

The Nasdaq briefly topped 17,000 as Nvidia continues to run higher, but market breadth was weak, with the Dow Jones undercutting its 50-day line. Arm Holdings and Wingstop flashed buy signals, while Celsius plunged below a key level.

After a bearish reversal in Thursday’s session, the stock market bucked the weakness and delivered a positive expectation breaker. How bullish should you be now? Mike Webster and Alissa Coram walk through this week’s technical action and stocks to watch in the Friday extended version of Stock Market Today.

The 10-year Treasury rose above some key levels after the flash Composite Purchasing Manager’s Index (PMI) came in stronger than expected. Nvidia faded off highs after the Nasdaq composite pared an intraday gain of nearly 1.2% to a loss of 0.4% by the close. Novo Nordisk, Crocs and Ryan Specialty are still holding near highs.

The 10-year Treasury yield rallied a bit after the minutes from the May 1 Fed meeting were released. Just after the close, the yield was trading around 4.43%, up 2 basis points. Oil and gas stocks lagged badly, along with metals and mining stocks. Loar Holdings followed through after clearing an IPO base Tuesday; Monday.com is holding gains well after gapping up on earnings; Vertex Pharmaceuticals is near the top of a shallow cup base.

The major indexes had another quiet session, as investors await Nvidia earnings. But leading stocks continue to fare well. Eli Lilly broke out while Microsoft flashed a buy signal. Ares Management tumbled Tuesday on investor day, but pared losses to hold the buy zone.

As a power trend starts, many stocks are giving second chances at buy areas. AppLovin held tight after earnings and has a look that can be found among many stocks today. Monolithic Power reaffirmed its breakout from last week after holding tight for a couple of days. Of course, Nvidia earnings are due after the close on Wednesday which puts a spotlight on chips. Finally, Booking.com is a little slower but shows strength outside of tech.

As Nvidia earnings loom large next week, the stock market is on the verge of delivering a powerful signal. Mike Webster and Alissa Coram walk through this week’s technical action and stocks to watch in the Friday extended version of Stock Market Today.

The Dow Jones industrial average briefly crossed the 40,000 level but backed off highs by the close along with the Nasdaq and S&P 500. Decliners beat advancers on both exchanges by a small margin after the Nasdaq confirmed the latest uptrend Thursday with a follow-through day. First Solar is approaching an alternate entry; Hartford Financial gave an early buy signal as it forms a flat base; MercadoLibre is trying to clear a new entry.

Weaker-than-expected retail sales and a palatable reading on consumer prices fueled a fresh round of buying. The 10-year Treasury yield and U.S. dollar fell sharply. Breadth wasn’t great on the Nasdaq at less than 2-to-1 positive. Winners beat losers on the NYSE by just over 2-to-1. Lennar rallied with other homebuilders, while Azek moved bullishly above its 50-day line. Broadcom rose to the top of an 11-week consolidation.

The Nasdaq is nearing a record high, while leading stocks continue to act well. On Holding gapped out of a base on strong earnings. Embraer raced back above a buy point a few days after its quarterly results. CrowdStrike is holding in range of an aggressive entry within a base.

Indexes were mostly flat on Monday and after a strong showing last week, that’s constructive. We still have stocks setting up including Pure Storage forming a shallow double bottom, Costco potentially ready for a handle and PulteGroup with a shallow cup with handle.

As the market starts to trend above a key level, now is the time to take a more bullish stance. Mike Webster and Alissa Coram walk through this week’s technical action and stocks to watch in the Friday extended version of Stock Market Today. 

The Dow Jones extended its winning streak to seven sessions. The 10-year Treasury yield eased 3 basis points to around 4.45% after jobless claims came in stronger than expected. Celsius made a bullish move after a volatile reaction to earnings earlier in the week; Manulife cleared a base and is still in a buy zone; Williams-Sonoma is back near highs with earnings coming up.

Small caps were under pressure all day, but the Nasdaq composite and S&P 500 pared early losses. Decliners beat advancers by less than 2-to-1 on both exchanges as utility stocks outperformed. Taiwan Semiconductor isn’t far from a new entry as it forms a double-bottom base; Aerovironment could try to add a handle to its current pattern; Jefferies is near the top of a shallow cup base. 

The major indexes paused Tuesday after a trio of solid gains. A number of stocks still flashed buy signals, often on earnings, though there were big losers as well. Star Bulk Carriers broke out with Ares Management and Embraer near buy points.

 Remember that sharp break in the market indexes last month? Seems that the market is putting that worrisome week in the rearview mirror as it hurdles over another potential area of resistance. For stocks, Tradeweb.

With Friday’s jobs report reigniting rate-cut hopes, along with positive reactions to earnings from Apple and Amgen, the Nasdaq composite decidedly cleared the 16,000 level. Mike Webster and Alissa Coram walk through this week’s technical action and stocks to watch in the Friday extended version of Stock Market Today.

Winners beat losers on the Nasdaq by more than 2-to-1. The ratio was around 4-to-1 positive on the NYSE. The 10-year Treasury yield popped early but reversed slightly lower ahead of Friday’s jobs report, which is expected to show nonfarm payrolls up 243,000. Qualcomm soared after reporting earnings and giving bullish revenue guidance, while ResMed and TechnipFMC continue to show strength.

The market initially breathed a sigh of relief that it didn’t get a hawkish statement from Fed Chairman Powell. He acknowledged that inflation is still too high, but he also said the Fed would slow down its bond selling, which could cause downward pressure on rates. Pinterest soared on bullish Q1 results; Booz Allen Hamilton and Aerovironment are building new bases.

The S&P 500 and Nasdaq pulled back from their 50-day lines to undercut their 21-day lines, awaiting the latest Fed meeting and other big news. Eli Lilly jumped on earnings, flirting with a buy signal.

While it’s nice to see indexes on the upswing, there’s more work to be done. Specifically, the 50-day line is looming for indexes and could be a place where bears wrestle control again. And don’t forget a heavy earnings week is on tap to add a potential catalyst for a trend change. Still, a number of individual stocks are looking promising. Carrier Global is working on cooling the artificial intelligence “heat wave.” United Rentals is shaping up a double bottom. Finally, Howmet Aerospace is still holding strong forming a flat base.

After last week’s bad break, Alphabet is trying to help the market get its mojo back. As stocks snapped back on Friday, Nvidia, Astera Labs and Cava flashed buy signals. In this extended edition of Stock Market Today, Alissa Coram and Mike Webster review the market’s changing character, levels to watch and how to adjust your portfolio – and your expectations – accordingly.

The first estimate to Q1 GDP came in at 1.6%, well below the 2.3% consensus. Core inflation on a year-over-year basis also came in above expectations, raising fears of stagflation. Stocks moved off lows even as the 10-year Treasury yield rallied above 4.70% and hit a five-month high. It’s been an orderly pull back for Southern Copper so far; Sweetgreen is holding support at its 10-week line; Blue Owl Capital is still in a buy zone ahead of earnings next week.

Breadth was weak all day even when the Nasdaq was near session highs. The 10-year yield rose near its high for the year, up 5 basis points to 4.65%. After earnings reports from META and ServiceNow, Microsoft and Alphabet are next up on the earnings calendar. Stocks to watch include Hubbell, Ingersoll Rand and Natera.

The indexes rose solidly for a second straight session, but don’t get excited yet by the nascent rally attempt, especially with earnings season kicking into high gear. TransDigm is on the cusp of a buy signal amid strength in aerospace names. Neurocrine Biosciences jumped toward possible entries on positive drug news. Chipotle is setting up nicely with earnings on tap.

 Indexes faded into the close but still ended with solid gains. But don’t be tempted. One day isn’t enough to change a trend. Still it’s worth noting stocks that are doing well. On the defensive end, Church & Dwight broke out of a flat base, Alphabet has reestablished itself as a relative strength leader and Heico is flirting with resistance around 200.

The major indexes suffered significant losses Friday, with the S&P 500 breaking below the key 5,000 level. Last Friday was an expectation breaker, signaling more weakness could follow – and that’s exactly what we got. The bull market precedent of 2003 is officially broken. Nvidia and SMCI provide two big clues about the market’s unhealthy action, while Sprouts is one of the few setups out there to watch. Mike Webster provides homework to get you ready for next week.

Eli Lilly initially popped on positive news but couldn’t hold gains; Itron is setting up in a nice base; Google parent Alphabet is still showing strength with a relative strength line near highs.

The major indexes held their ground despite comments from Fed chief Jerome Powell, but remain below their 50-day moving averages. Some leading stocks had solid sessions, including Sea Limited, DraftKings and Datadog.

The back-and-forth between Iran and Israel is still putting some pressure on stocks and raising volatility. An early morning gap up faded and then some by the close with few areas left unscathed. Atkore had a nice move higher finding support at its 10-week line as did Casey’s General Stores. Meanwhile, HealthEquity has been skirting around its 10-week line for a few weeks now and just isn’t bowing to downside pressure.

Thursday looked promising, but now we need to readjust our expectations.

Breadth was lackluster again, along with volume, but leading stocks continue to act well. Winners had a slight edge over losers on both exchanges. In the chip sector, Broadcom and ASML are setting up in new bases with healthy RS lines, while Airbnb is in a buy zone.

Axon and Ares Management are both forming flat bases, while Cava is in an alternate buy zone.

The major indexes didn’t make big moves Tuesday ahead of Wednesday’s CPI inflation report. Nvidia stock slumped Tuesday, undercutting recent lows but finding 10-week line support. Royal Caribbean fell below a recent buy point. But Nutanix is holding up, close to forging a new base.

After Thursday’s downside reversal, indexes have stayed within the highs and lows of that day. It sets up a nice lane for the markets but take note when it breaks from its lane. Take extra note of the stocks that do it first. Medpace crossed above Thursday’s high on Friday and followed up today. Apollo retraced a lot of ground on Friday and punctured above Thursday’s high today. Finally, ExxonMobil doesn’t even show anything happening on Thursday as it broke out of a cup base.

After Thursday’s downside reversal and weak recovery attempt on Friday, could a pullback or intermediate correction be in the cards? IBD’s Mike Webster walks through each day’s action and levels he’s watching. We revisit a precedent to see if the current index action is still tracking what unfolded in the market in 2003. Plus, we analyze some of this week’s notable stocks: Meta, Spotify, ServiceNow and Celsius.

A 1.2% intraday gain for the Nasdaq composite faded to a loss of more than 1% by the close. Oil settled at its highest level since late October, up 1.4% to $86.59 a barrel. Friday’s jobs report is expected to show nonfarm payrolls up 200,000 with the unemployment rate holding steady at 3.9%. Saia is testing its 10-week line; Celsius is close to a first test, while ServiceNow continues to build a base.

Advancing stocks outnumbered decliners on both exchanges by less than 2-to-1. The 10-year Treasury jumped above 4.40% after ADP reported stronger than expected job growth in March. But the 10-year yield backed off highs for the second straight session. Salesforce and XPO are trading near their 10-week moving averages, while Dexcom is in an alternate buy zone.

The 10-year Treasury yield added to Monday’s surge, hitting 2024 highs Tuesday. That pressured stocks once again, though the indexes came off morning lows. Meta Platforms, Uber Technologies and Eli Lilly are finding support around their 10-week lines.

The 10-year Treasury yield ticked higher ahead of a key report on inflation Friday morning. The stock market will be closed Friday in observance of Good Friday, but the bond market will be open.

ServiceNow flirted with aggressive entries as several software names set up. Royal Caribbean is in a buy zone with Carnival earnings on deck Wednesday.

Even China news suggesting that Chinese chips would be favored over others wasn’t enough to shake this market. The major indexes continued to trade sideways but are making themselves comfortable above prior levels of resistance. It’s still worth sticking with A-list stocks and today we’ll take that literally with a look at Arm Holdings as it broke a recent downtrend on the China news. Also worth watching is Axon, formerly known as Taser, as it consolidates the gains from its last earnings move. Finally, it might be slow and boring but insurance companies like Allstate are filling the ranks of leadership and Allstate broke out of a short cup today.

The major indexes all hit record highs during the week, fueled by two familiar catalysts: A dovish Fed and AI optimism. Breadth was strong beyond tech with a number of stocks breaking out. Uber, Eli Lilly and CrowdStrike are setting up again in somewhat messy patterns.

The Fed envisions three rate cuts before the end of the year, in line with market expectations. CyberArk, Monday.com and JFrog continue to trade well with relative strength lines near new highs.

The market showed resilience, with Nvidia reversing higher. But the Fed rate-hike outlook looms large. Woodward and Arista Networks are setting up near flat-base buy points, with Arista paring solid intraday losses. Synopsys made a bullish move.

The Nvidia GTC conference is in full swing but maybe it’s time to look outside of AI? The Nasdaq composite led the day but attention may also shift to March Madness brackets and a setup in DraftKings breaking a downtrend. A Fed meeting is coming this week which will put the focus on financials like Apollo Global Management with support at its 10-week line. Finally, if you need to get away from it all there is Royal Caribbean as a shallow cup base forms.

The key indexes continued to pause or pull back from recent highs, with the Nasdaq and Russell 200 testing the 21-day line. Sideways action could create new buying opportunities, but right now is fueling more fake outs, with ServiceNow and East West Bancorp down but not necessarily out. Arista Networks has a new flat base. The Fed meeting and two big AI meetings are on tap.

The 10-year Treasury yield spiked by 10 basis points to 4.29% after wholesale prices came in higher than expected.

After Friday’s reversal you would expect more weakness but indexes didn’t give up a lot of extra ground. Arch Capital was one of the few breakouts for the day and it isn’t alone in its strength as other insurance stocks also saw gains. Meanwhile, On Holding is setting up with a cup with handle with a buy point at 35.58 and Neurocrine Biosciences is carving out a flat base with a 143.35 buy point.

Winners beat losers on the S&P 500 by more than 2 to 1, but the ratio was less than 2 to 1 positive on the Nasdaq.

BlackRock broke out of a tight flat base as some banks rallied and bitcoin hit highs. Rollins broke out of a cup-with-handle with a group that has seen recent movement to the forefront. Finally, Samsara is setting up in a base of its own but has more volatility and earnings coming on March 7.

The stock market rally had a strong week, with the Nasdaq hitting a record high and small caps moving back above recent highs. That offered buying opportunities for leaders such as Taiwan Semi, but the Nasdaq is already extended again. Tidewater raced higher on earnings and oil prices, while Confluent is setting up. Investors need to be patient and nimble.

With PCE data coming in as expected, indexes got a strong start. After some slow action midday they really ramped up into the close. AMD got a nice boost breaking out of tight area, Celsius rocked its earnings and put the squeeze on short sellers. Meanwhile, Duolingo got back above its 50-day line on a big earnings move.

The 10-year Treasury yield dipped 4 basis points to around 4.27% as the bond market ponders a “higher for longer” interest-rate scenario for the Fed.

The Personal Consumption Expenditures report is due out on Thursday and earnings are winding down. Is this the time for the market to pause? Bitcoin play Coinbase doesn’t seem to be ready for a pause as it retook a buy point from a week ago. And homebuilder Dream Finders Homes also had a powerful breakout today. But when you look at Alphabet and Apple, these Magnificent 7 members aren’t looking nearly as magnificent.

The S&P 500 hit record highs thanks to Nvidia earnings with the Nasdaq almost there. The market rally is already looking stretched again. Breadth has been so-so, though leadership remains robust. Lennar is flirting with a breakout while Manhattan Associates around potential entries. AMD stock had a wild week but yet another tight weekly close as it works on a base.

The Nasdaq composite closed less than 200 points from its all-time high of 16,212 set in November 2021.

The 10-year Treasury yield fell for a second day after soaring Tuesday. Real estate firm Jones Lasalle gapped up powerfully; Airbnb shot higher after an earnings sell-off; Commvault Systems is holding gains bullishly.

The stock market rebounded Wednesday after Tuesday’s sell-off. The indexes bounced from or near key levels. But it wouldn’t take much for the Nasdaq to be extended again, while bullish sentiment is near extreme levels. Netflix offered a buying opportunity for nimble traders, while Celsius cleared some key levels. Birkenstock is setting up.

The stock market suffered significant losses Tuesday following hot CPI inflation and negative reactions to key earnings reports. Many leading stocks rebounded from key levels, but market breadth was very weak. Shopify sold off on earnings while Copart and MercadoLibre held up reasonably well.

A rally by small and midcap names made up for a small retreat by the Nasdaq composite, but only after the Nasdaq made further ground past 16,000. It is less than a 1% rise away from eclipsing its November 2021 all-time peak. The Russell 2000’s solid gain helped affirm good numbers in terms of market breadth. AI-themed companies continue to attract attention and investor dollars, for good reason. But techs are not the only game in town lately for investors searching for stocks with breakout potential. Today we’ll highlight new buy points emerging in PulteGroup and Diamondback Energy as well as note a profit-taking sell rule in Monday.com ahead of its quarterly results early on Monday.

Breadth continued to improve as indexes started bursting through important levels. The S&P 500 made it above 5,000 while the Nasdaq composite hopped above 16,000 for a moment.

A number of stocks still had good days including Uber which is getting added to the S&P 500. But don’t go chasing extended stocks in an extended market. Booz Allen Hamilton broke out of a fresh cup-with-handle and defense and intelligence are areas of interest right now. Finally, construction and real estate continued to show power with TopBuild extending its gains above a breakout around 300.

The Dow Jones hit a fresh 52-week high Friday with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq close behind. But Friday’s big winner was the Russell 2000, blasting above its 200-day line. Other measures showed improving breadth. Recent IPO Arm Holdings, construction play United Rentals and D.R. Horton flashed buy signals.

Software stocks outperformed, helped by strong earnings reports from Workday and CrowdStrike. Breadth was about 2-to-1 positive on the NYSE and slightly less than 2-to-1 positive on the Nasdaq. Workday gapped up on earnings, while group peers Dynatrace and Cloudflare topped buy points.

Stock indexes closed moderately higher. Nvidia ‘sold the news’ after earnings, but the stock held up relatively well after another bullish quarter.

Some of the market’s most beaten-down merchandise made the biggest moves Wednesday, while several top-rated growth stocks came under selling pressure after big gains over the past two weeks. Netflix, Howmet Aerospace and United Rentals are showing relative strength, but don’t chase them at current levels.

DraftKings offered a new entry, while Toll Brothers broke out and Super Micro surged to top aggressive buy points.

After a strong showing last week, the Nasdaq composite wasn’t willing to give up much ground. The S&P 500 is right there with it. But there is still a divergence with the other major indexes and breadth is still narrow. A pause could give other members a chance to catch up to the leaders. Shopify is going sideways after a strong earnings reaction and is looking at a double-bottom entry. DoorDash already broke out of its double bottom but had a second-chance offering at the buy point. Li Auto looks poised to shake off China weakness again as it breaks its downtrend but be careful of extra volatility. 

After Thursday’s retreat, the market rally looked like it was ready to pause. But bulls want to run. The major indexes roared back Friday to above October highs.

TJX held up well ahead of next week’s earnings report, while Palantir and homebuilder PulteGroup have been drifting lower in light volume.

Axon stock broke out on earnings, while Eli Lilly jumped on drug approval news. Dell is continuing to hold in a buy range with a bullish relative strength line.

Meanwhile, over in aerospace and defense, a strong relative strength line is leading FTAI Aviation into new highs.

The major indexes fell this week to multimonth lows, while the Russell 2000 hit its worst level since 2020. Microsoft, UnitedHealth and Weatherford are three stocks holding up relatively well with earnings out of the way.

The S&P 500 and Nasdaq composite fell further as earnings season puts another level of pressure on indexes. Walmart is holding up though as it carves out a shallow base. TechnipFMC got a boost from its latest earnings but was already resisting the downtrend while Arista Networks reacted negatively to Meta earnings showing how quickly stocks that are holding up can change.

The S&P 500 and Nasdaq composite fell sharply, undercutting their recent lows, ending their short-lived rally attempts. Treasury yields ran up while big earnings were mixed at best. Google plunged on weak cloud results. Vertiv whipsawed lower on its mixed results, while CME rebounded from steep early losses.

Given the poor finish on Friday it was nice to see a rebound, but the indexes still have some work to do. It was still an inside day for a lot of stocks and the 50-day line is still looming as potential resistance. Lululemon jumped on an addition to the S&P 500, KLA is showing strength among semiconductors and AeroVironment is worth a revisit as it breaks a downtrend.

Strength in the labor market from the latest JOLTS report sent the 10-year yield soaring and puts more attention on the jobs report Friday. Market breadth continued to suffer as stocks got pummeled. Still, it’s a good idea to keep watch lists fresh with Alphabet and Halliburton showing potential support at their 50-day lines. But you could also have a watch list of stock to short like Ferrari.

The major indexes tried to rally with a government shutdown averted, but the 10-year Treasury surged to a fresh 16-year high. Market breadth was terrible, with the Dow Jones, Russell 2000 and S&P MidCap 400 all hitting correction lows. Nvidia, Super Micro and Costco bucked the trend.
