The Markets
Stocks slipped slightly on Wednesday, giving back some of the gain that was recorded in the prior session, as investors looked to square away positions ahead of the Thanksgiving holiday and ahead of the close of the month. The S&P 500 Index ended the session down by just less than four-tenths of one percent, continuing to hold above support at the 20-day moving average (5913). Price continues to hold above previous short-term declining trendline resistance that was formed by connecting the peaks since November 11th, but some indecision set into the market in the last few hours of trade as investors refrain from making any significant directional bets ahead of the holiday. On a intermediate-term scale, there remains greater evidence of support than resistance, presenting the desired backdrop for strength that is normally realized in the market at year-end. Major moving averages are all pointed higher and momentum indicators continue to gyrate above their middle lines, providing characteristics of a bullish trend. Our list of candidates in the market to Accumulate and to Avoid remains well positioned to benefit from the strength that is filtering into the market at this seasonally strong time of year, but we will scrutinize whether any changes are required as the price action evolves.
