MARKET SUMMARY
- The election in the bank and stocks unleash upside on the certainty.
- More or less as expected and the market surges a sigh of relief.
- Indices breakout from inverted head and shoulders patterns, led by the large caps.
- Yes growth stocks get back into the game, but at the same time the same leaders prior to the election continue higher. All together? That would be nice.
The certainty of the election and the certainty of a certain amount of gridlock certainly brought the bids back in, and not just certain stocks. Certainly.
Beyond the societal implications, Wednesday gave the market the follow through session to the 10/30 reversal. 2+% gains, stronger, above average volume (NASDAQ showed this). Seven sessions from the reversal is a good time for a follow through. Speaking of sessions, AG Sessions resigned today at Trump's request. That helped the pot stocks. Everything was high, so to speak.
SP500 58.44, 2.12%
NASDAQ 194.79, 2.64%
DJ30 545.29, 2.13%
SP400 1.50%
RUTX 1.67%
SOX 1.19%
NASDAQ 100 3.07%
VOLUME: NYSE +9%, NASDAQ +17%. NYSE volume moved up to average -- no the kind of volume desired for a follow through session. NASDAQ trade jumped back above average. Not blowout volume but in the range of the prior two weeks that included selling volume as well as upside volume. All it takes is one index and it looks as if NASDAQ delivered on the volume.
ADVANCE/DECLINE: NYSE 3.1:1, NASDAQ 2.3:1. The market move definitely had a large cap bias, and that is no different from the general bias over the past two months after the small and midcaps topped and dropped.
More importantly, what about leadership? Are the patterns there? Before the election I talked about the inverted head and shoulders patterns forming in the indices and a lot of the tech stocks, particularly software, were setting these up. Those started breaking higher today along with the indices.
In addition to those leaders, the leaders when growth and large cap tech were absent (or more accurately, were refried beans), continued moving well. WMT, JNJ, KR, KO, MCD -- all are in good patterns, all broke higher, all are still moving higher. Add to that utilities such as AEP still moving higher and you have a rather broad -- and rather strange -- group of stocks moving higher. Kind of a 'just buy it all' session.
Now it is a question of staying power, of more leaders stepping up to support a confirmed rally. There are some strong stocks breaking higher, and if they continue we will add to those we bought today -- as we let the positions we bought ahead of this move continue to work, many of which are listed above.
To be sure, the afterhours shows were effusive in their 'buy, buy, buy' point of view. Cramer et al were all espousing the Crash Davis (Kevin Costner) instructions to rookie pitcher Ebby Calvin Laloosh in 'Bull Durham': don't think, just throw.
While there may be some giveback Thursday after such a rush higher, that likely would be a great opportunity to pick up some positions. Refining the Crash Davis instruction to Ebby Calvin (aka Nuke), if we get good entries on good patterns, we won't question the action, just take what the market gives us.
CHARTS
NASDAQ, SP500, DJ30 broke higher from inverted head and shoulders. NASDAQ and DJ30 moved on very solid volume. DJ30 was already over the 200 day SMA and is already taking on the prior high. SP500 gapped over the 200 day SMA. Nice. NASDAQ gapped higher and rallied through the 200 day SMA on the close, solid volume as noted. NASDAQ's and DJ30's moves were follow through sessions for the market: 2+% gains, strong, above average volume.
SP400, RUTX: Both broke higher from their own inverted head and shoulders patterns, though they are so down they have yet to reach even the 50 day MA. They also lagged in terms of percentage gains. Clearly they are still less favored than the large caps, but they are following along.
SOX gapped higher from the right shoulder of its potential inverted head and shoulders, but it did not clear the late October highs. INTC moved well but many chips struggled. XLNX gapped higher but then faded to a loss. QRVO, SWKS, SLAB still show muddled trade post-AAPL earnings and the XR phone issues. A rather undecided pattern with no follow through yet.
NASDAQ 100 gapped over the 200 day SMA and rallied. That bounces NASDAQ 100 up from the sort of inverted head and shoulders pattern.
LEADERSHIP
SCAANN: SQ gapped and rallied on volume ahead of earnings, sold some on good results, but down rather modestly (closed at 82.69, trading at 80 afterhours and off the lows); likely see the recent treatment, i.e. a bit down on results then rallies. CRM gapped up off the 200 day SMA with a strong move. AMZN rallied through the 200 day SMA and held it. Don't like the pattern, but volume was strong. AAPL gapped and rallied 3% but on very low volume. Not convincing. NFLX rallied on decent trade, but nothing spectacular here. NVDA continued working laterally at the 10 day EMA. Certainly no drive higher.
FB doji'ed just below the 20 day EMA, going nowhere. GOOG gapped upside and rallied on above average volume; not bad, but not as clear as other NASDAQ big names.
Software: Some good patterns. TTWO did not rally much but afterhours reported good results and was up to 132; faded, however, to 129 (closed at 126ish). FEYE surged on strong volume. CRM looks good as noted. VMW gapped and rallied to the 50 day SMA. DATA gapped big on earnings results, clearing the September highs. NOW rallied well off the 200 day SMA. ADBE looks interesting with this break higher. VRSN testing nicely after its upside gap on earnings last Friday.
Retail: A mixed bag. WMT added a solid gain and TGT gapped nicely upside. DG a higher high. AMZN surged as noted. ULTA, WSM paused, RH rallied through the 50 day SMA. LOW made an interesting break higher off the 200 day SMA. FOSL looked really bad.
Financial: V, MA gapped nicely higher off support. Interesting. GS up. C, BAC up but problematic patterns. JPM shows the inverted head and shoulders and broke higher.
Food: MCD, KR, MKC, KO, PEP higher again, still rallying.

Bulls and Bears:
This now gets at least interesting. Bulls tumbled 6.2 points, now well below 50. Perhaps that is the dam breaking and negative sentiment will ramp. It is noteworthy that the market rebounded in the aftermath. Bears mad a significant move, at least for the bears.
Bulls: 44.3 versus 50.5
Bears: 19.8 versus 19.0
Theory: When everyone is bullish and has put all their capital to work, where does the ammunition to drive the market come from? There is always new money to start a new year. After that is used will more money be coming? That is the question.
Bulls: 44.3 versus 50.5
50.5 versus 51.9 versus 56.3 versus 61.8 versus 60.6 versus 59.0 versus 57.7 versus 60.1 versus 59.6 versus 57.7 versus 57.3 versus 54.9 versus 54.5 versus 54.9 versus 55.3 versus 52.4 versus 47.1 versus 47.6 versus 52.0 versus 55.5 versus 52.9 versus 50.0 versus 49.1 versus 46.6 versus 43.1 versus 43.6 versus 48.0 versus 43.6 versus 42.2 versus 49.5 versus 55.5 versus 54.9 versus 48.6 versus 48.1 versus 48.5 versus 41.9 versus 54.4 versus 66.00
Bears: 19.8 versus 19.0

Gold: 1228.70, +2.40. Still working laterally over the 20 day EMA and 50 day EMA.
THURSDAY
Good breaks higher by the indices and many growth stocks out of 5-week inverted head and shoulders patterns as some pent up election anxiety was released on the split the baby kind of results.
If the moves continue, there are some we want to enter. It could be that after such a sharp release of anxiety with buying results in a bit of a give back, a bit of a pause, after the move. If that occurs we can use that as an entry. If the moves continue, however, we are not going to balk at moving into some of these stocks that started a pretty solid break upside.
Then we see if the moves can continue and if this is the start of the rally to year end. It certainly has the earmarks with the follow through session and some very decent patterns capable of delivering a move to yearend, a very tradeable move at that.
Have a great evening!
