The Markets
Stocks slipped on Monday as investors reacted to news on the tariff front as the Trump administration extends the 90-day pause deadline and announces new rates that could be imposed on various countries that have been, perhaps, less than forthcoming in trade negotiations, thus far. The S&P 500 Index closed lower by nearly eight-tenths of one percent, peeling back from the all-time high that was charted prior to the Independence Day holiday on Thursday. The upside gap that was charted in the succinct pre-holiday session last week has been closed, alleviating some of the overbought condition that was apparent coming into the week. Support at the cloud of major moving averages remains well defined, including the 20-day moving average (6085), a variable hurdle that has been unviolated throughout the bull-market rally from the April lows. Until some of the implied levels of support start to crack, this market still has the appearance of having an easier ability to excel above levels of resistance than to fail below levels of support. 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.
