Market Rise Analysis
The stock market rally eased Thursday morning, with the Nasdaq down more than 1% on the day. But the major indicators quickly gave up on that and moved higher. The Nasdaq moved above last week’s highs, after the Dow and Standard & Poor’s did so on Wednesday.
The pullback was not surprising in reaction to the second day of the Fed meeting after Wednesday’s big rally, and with leading indicators at some key technical levels. Double earnings or guidance from meta pads (dead), Qualcomm (QCOM) and others also provided a reason to hold back.
So Thursday’s market action certainly showed strength.
The highs in early June are the next hurdle in the market. A market pause for a few days or even weeks wouldn’t be a bad thing. This would allow some stocks to form handles and allow the moving averages to catch up.
Hershey (HSY) Flirt with an early buy point on profits while Rollins (roll) broke out strongly in the second day’s reaction to earnings. Carlisle (CSL) Exit the earnings base during Quanta Services (PWR) as part of the green energy boost, but both have somewhat extended their 50-day streaks.
