Our iBullyBear Mentoring account reached a new Net Liq high on strength in AMUU, META, AMD, NET, MU and several other gainers on Thursday. Employ a systematic approach to decision-making in the face of uncertainty.  If you want to improve your skills contact us through the iBullyBear link above.

SPX -1.90, 7,704 opened lower and rallied back above Monday’s S1 level. Breadth remained negative as advancers rallied but decliners led on both the NYSE and the NASDAQ exchanges.  A rise in oil prices along with a pullback in some technology stocks contributed to the pullback in the broad market.

RUT 2,835 fell -3.08. Oil /CL rose +2.05 and closed at 94.76.  

SPX advancers: P ILMN MRNA CRL RVTY GDDY A META RL CDNS INTC.
SPX decliners: GEN MGM FSLR AKAM ROL XYL WDC WY DVA ALB CDW.

SPY -0.63, -0.02%, slightly above average volume of 42.8 million shares, second pullback day. 
VIX +0.49, 15.67 rose.
NDX +0.03% opened lower, reversed and closed slightly higher just below horizontal resistance at its June high.
DJI, 51,349 -0.31%, a red hammer candle.

Up:
Down: QQQ, SPY, IWM, DIA,


Mega caps META, LLY, AMD, GOOGL, TSM, MU, AMZN rose, and AAPL, BRK/B, NVDA, MSFT, TSLA, AVGO fell on Thursday.  AMD remained above a $1T market cap for a fourth day.


SPCX closed at 148.03, -0.33, volume of 72.5 million shares. Our view is that SPCX, with no earnings, remains an overvalued speculation.  IPO at 135 on June 12.  In the end if buyers are greater than sellers the stock will rise.  People seem to be willing to speculate on this company’s fundamental future. 

The SPY MFC green line is up at 64.2, price-action on Thursday is a pullback day and is short-term bullish. +3.2

Three of eleven sectors were higher on Thursday. 


34 of 100 NDX stocks closed higher on Thursday.

45 NDX stocks are above their 30 DMA: GILD, SPCX, MSTR, TSLA, QCOM, AAPL, META, AMD, INTC, AZN, CRWD, FTNT, PANW, ISRG, LITE, MRVL, PLTR, MU, NXPI, SNDK, ADI, ALAB, NBIS, NVDA, STX, TER, TXN, ALNY, DDOG, MPWR, MSFT, RKLB, WBD, ASML, MAR, MDB, KLAC, LRCX, MCHP, SNPS, AMAT, CDNS, FAST, ROST, CRWV,

SPX -58.61, 7,706 a pullback day that stayed above Monday’s S1 level. Breadth weakened as decliners led on both the NYSE and the NASDAQ exchanges.  A rise in oil prices along with a pullback in technology stocks and mega-caps contributed to the pullback in the broad market.

SPX -0.06, 7,7664 a trading range pause day on Tuesday.  Breadth was mixed as advancers led on the NASDAQ exchange.  A drop in oil prices along with buying in select technology stocks and mega-caps added some stability to broad markets.

SPX advancers: SNDK LEN MRNA MU STX TER ALGN AMGN MTD EL SWK.

SPCX closed at 154.72, +2.87, volume of 59 million shares.
