Purchase on the dip?
The inventory market was capable of survive the newest FOMC assembly and gyrating rates of interest the prior week setting the stage for this week’s promoting. Earlier than the week began it appeared like each merchants and buyers had been arrange for a market decline as shares did not want any actual catalyst to show decrease.
There have been warning indicators forward of the lengthy weekend because the starc+ band evaluation made it clear that a number of key market averages had been stretched on the upside. Only a month in the past many thought the S&P 500 wouldn’t get above 4200 or 4250 so final week’s excessive of 4448.47 was painful to these on the brief aspect.
The shut above 4250 on June 2nd was doubtless sufficient to persuade these on the sidelines to lastly get lengthy that is confirmed by the fund flows for the previous a number of weeks that revealed $ 4.4 billion moved into the market from retail buyers. Over the weekend some had been questioning if these late consumers simply bought in on the high. After a 40% rise in tech shares fund managers had been doubtless beneath strain to extend their lengthy publicity earlier than the top of the quarter. They’re prone to be shopping for once more this week.

The market internals had been solidly unfavourable final week with 2168 points declining and simply 920 points advancing on the NYSE Composite. These numbers had been weak sufficient to show the every day and weekly superior decline strains decrease however the brand new all-time excessive within the S&P 500 Advance/Decline line is bullish for the intermediate-term pattern.
SPY Weekly
The Spyder Belief (SPY
PY
SPY
The weekly shut on June 16th pushed the S&P 500 A/D line to a brand new all-time excessive, line a. Primarily based on my strategy to advance/decline evaluation it is a signal that the SPY will in the end surpass its prior all-time excessive at $468.78. An identical sign was generated in February 2019 after shares had plunged within the final quarter of 2018. The A/D line declined final week however continues to be above its EMA whereas the every day is now within the corrective mode.
The weekly NYSE Shares Solely A/D line has been comparatively weaker than the S&P because the October 2022 lows. It closed final week under its EMA with vital assist now on the March lows.

The NASDAQ 100 Advance/Decline line reached its long-term downtrend per week in the past, line c, earlier than turning decrease. It isn’t far above its rising WMA. The weekly relative performance analysis (RS) continues to be within the clear uptrend indicating that QQQ is outperforming the S&P 500. There aren’t any indicators of a change in pattern because the every day RS evaluation additionally favors QQQ.

This might be an fascinating growth as many on Wall Avenue have been combating the pro-growth pattern for a lot of the yr however have lately turn out to be satisfied. A flip in favor of worth may make them poorly positioned if worth began to guide development.
10 12 months T-Be aware Yield
The ten 12 months T-Be aware Yield was a bit decrease final week because it has been vary certain for many of June. The downtrend, line a, and the R1 are within the 3.899% space. A decisive shut under the pivot at 3.597% might be wanted to verify a transfer to decrease yields. That may be in line with the lack of upside momentum that’s evident within the every day MACDs that are unfavourable.
So was the current correction only a dip to purchase or the beginning of a extra significant correction that might take the SPY one other 3-5% decrease? The prolonged market state was a cause to take partial income on power in markets like QQQ, IWF, SMH

The mixed impression of the brand new highs within the S&P 500 A/D line and the March Zweig Breadth Thrust Signal (ZBT) signifies that even a deeper correction ought to be a shopping for alternative as shares transfer greater into the top of the yr.
In winding up my weekend scan evaluation I observed that Goldman Sachs (GS) has triggered a weekly doji sell signal. The shut final week at $314.71 was properly under the prior week’s doji low at $335.69. The weekly chart exhibits what seems to be a bear flag formation that may be confirmed by a break under assist at line b. That may mission a transfer to the $280 space if not decrease.
The weekly RS dropped under its assist, line v, and its WMA in March. This was a robust sign that GS was going to be weaker than the S&P 500. Up to now in June GS is down 2.8% whereas the S&P 500 is up 4%.
The weekly OBV continues to be above its WMA however has been weaker than costs all yr with resistance at line d. The every day technical outlook for GS is unfavourable however is oversold because it has examined the every day starc- bands for the final three days.
By the center of the week the market internals ought to assist us decide how we are going to shut the week and whether or not the correction is already over.
