Market Updateđđ
Welcome back.
Last Wednesday the Dow, S&P500 and Nasdaq100 all closed at new all-time highs.
But the number of stocks on the NYSE that actually made new highs was a fraction of what it was last weekâŚ
Breadth is weak.
The indexes make new highs. The headlines focus only on that.
But then the actual new highs list is non-existent.
A sell off is beginning, weâre just not seeing it at the index level yet.
But, things can change at the drop of a hat.
The number of S&P 500 stocks above their 200 and 50dma is decreasing while the index is making new highs. This is how indexes topped in the past. The trouble is that timing a top is a lot tougher than capturing a bottom.
A bearish divergence can continue a lot longer than most expect and can resolve in two ways:
* We can see an expansion of the rally as more stocks participate. This happened last year in May and June.
* Or we can see a correction and most stocks pull back.
From where we stand, both scenarios are equally plausible right now.
More stocks joining the rally mean more and better opportunities in faster-moving stocks. A correction means lower prices in the strongest companies â so many investors are dreaming about buying pullbacks in the strongest semiconductor and software stocks. Any dips will offer better risk-to-reward opportunities.
As legendary investor, Peter Lynch said: âFar more money has been lost while preparing for a correction than during the corrections themselvesâ.

* Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said the central bank has shifted its focus toward deciding when to begin cutting interest rates, but that solid economic growth means officials didnât have to rush that decision. Given recent economic strength, âwe feel like we can approach the question of when to begin to reduce interest rates carefully,â Powell said during a rare television interview to be broadcast on CBS on Sunday night. Powell, speaking on â60 Minutes,â said officials were trying to balance the risks of leaving rates too high for too long, which could cause an economic slowdown, and of cutting rates too soon and allowing inflation to settle above the Fedâs 2% goal."
