SPX -26.98 7,592 opened and closed lower on another pause day when markets declined overnight as NVDA’s board met regarding its CEO.  Breadth weakened as decliners led on both the NYSE and NASDAQ exchanges.

NVDA -7.54, -4.34% to 166.19, following reports that CEO Huang has resigned and the CFO has become the interim CEO while the company completes an executive search.

SPX advancers: AVGO AMD ANET P SWKS CEG VLO DVN GOOGL MPC VRT.

SPCX closed at 139.94, +0.19, volume of 96.2 million shares. Our view is that SPCX proved its ability to produce profits in its last quarterly report.  IPO at 135 on June 12.  Investors seem to be willing to speculate on this company’s long-term fundamental future.  Rumors continue to circulate that SpaceX may acquire TSLA. 

The SPY MFC green line is pointed up at 37.4, price-action paused and with the rally that started on Friday still up.  Price closed above Sep 16 support and is short-term bullish. +9.9.
