The Markets
Stocks ended higher on Monday as the positivity attributed to the notorious summer rally period draws traders into the market before many step away from their desks this week (eg. Canada Day and Independence day holidays). The S&P 500 Index closed higher by just over half of one percent, closing at a fresh all-time. The upside gap around 6025 that was recorded last Tuesday plots a point of support to shoot positive bets against as we get through the start of the summer rally period that tends to see investors buy into the equity market beginning on the 27th of June, on average. Support at the 20-day moving average (6030) was confirmed last week, a variable hurdle that has been unviolated throughout the bull-market rally from the April lows. Our list of candidates in the market that are worthy to Accumulate or Avoid continues to be appropriately positioned, keeping investors tuned into those segments of the market that are working in such areas as in the Technology, Communication Services, Financials, and Utilities sectors.
