The Markets
Stocks continued to struggle through the Tuesday session as waning risk sentiment and negative seasonality for the back half of February had investors pushing the sell button. The S&P 500 Index closed lower by nearly half of one percent, pushing further below support at the 50-day moving average (6006), reflecting the apparent loss of excitement to buy around present heights. The benchmark is back below the 6100 hurdle that acted as a cap to upside momentum over the past couple of months. Momentum indicators have negatively diverged from price since the middle of last year, highlighting the waning enthusiasm investors had been expressing towards tech-heavy (Mag-7) benchmarks, like this, amidst extreme valuations. Downside risks on a pullback over the near-term are back to the July/August 2024 highs around 5700, a move that would amount to a 7% pullback from recent heights.This would be a healthy and ordinary correction within a bull market, by any measure. We continue to monitor the potential impact of the apparent rotation in the market on our list of candidates in the market to Accumulate and to Avoid and we have adopted more of a neutral stance as segments that were previously noted as Accumulate candidates fall off (eg. Technology) and as areas to Avoid are added.
