The Markets
Stocks traded generally lower on Wednesday as the market continues to take down exposure to core-cyclical assets in preparation for the threat of the onset of an economic recession. The S&P 500 Index closed lower by just less than four-tenths of one percent, continuing to roll over from overhead resistance between 4100 and 4200. As highlighted in our last report, a MACD sell signal has now been triggered as momentum indicators continue to profile a market that lacks upside enthusiasm. The benchmark is currently reaching into the range of moving averages between 3950 and 4050, searching for a point of support to stem the tide of selling pressures that has bubbled up in the riskiest, most economically sensitive segments of the market (eg. energy, industrials, materials, financials) in recent sessions.
Today, in our Market Outlook to subscribers, we discuss the following:
- Head-and-shoulders topping patterns across the charts of major ETFs
- Treasury bond prices increasingly showing a bottoming setup
- Weekly petroleum status, including the state of supply and demand, along with the technicals in the energy market
- US Durable Goods Orders
- US International Trade, the reducing trade deficit, and what this means for the economy and for stocks
