Trading Places with Tom Bowley - Market Recap for Thursday, April 7, 2016

It was a rough day yesterday.  All of our major indices were down.  All nine sectors were lower.  Unless you were trading gambling stocks or mining for gold, you probably saw red numbers.  The selling was truly across the board.  But there was a silver lining in there.  We have seen 20 day EMAs hold as support on our major indices throughout the rally off the February 11th bottom and they did so again on Thursday.  For the bears, closing the market below those rising 20 day EMAs is job #1 because you cannot begin to muster a bear attack with prices remaining above critical short-term support.  The Dow Jones, S&P 500 and Russell 2000 all hit their 20 day EMAs during Thursday's rout, but all three closed above that moving average.  Here's the visual of the Dow Jones:

The red shaded area shows a resistance zone where rallies have died since the heavy volume August selling.  The Dow Jones was beginning to test that price resistance zone when the negative divergence emerged, signaling slowing momentum to the upside.  That's key here because the rising 20 day EMA has continually offered solid support for the bulls while momentum was accelerating to the upside.  Now it's being challenged, but with slowing momentum more apparent.

The worst hit areas of the market on Thursday were the financials (XLF) where banks ($DJUSBK) fell by 2.77% and lost key support.  For a more detailed look at the banks, see the Sector/Industry Watch section below.

Market Recap for Wednesday, April 6, 2016

Healthcare (XLV) and energy (XLE) had huge days on Wednesday as our major indices rose throughout the day and finished on its high. Strength was seen across nearly every sector with only the defensive utilities down slightly. The best performing aggressive sector - technology (XLK) - rose .98% and ranked the XLK fourth in sector performance on the session. The hesitation of money to rotate toward aggressive areas of the market remains a key factor in my current cautious approach to trading. I discuss this in greater detail in the Current Outlook section below.

Despite the huge 2.69% gain in the XLV, there remain significant challenges ahead for the group, particularly on the longer-term weekly chart. Check it out:

The XLV closed at 70.31, but there are two obvious reasons that healthcare could struggle in the 70-71 area. First, there's a down channel in play off the July 2015 highs. Remember those weekly negative divergences that warned us of trouble ahead? Here was my June 2015 article that discussed the potential troubles that healthcare faced at the time.

Also, the selling really began in 2016 from the current level. The entire stock market was extremely weak in January and the XLV was no exception. Now we've rallied back to that level. Finally, the 50 week SMA currently resides at 70.42. It seems unlikely we'll simply go blasting through, but we'll see.

Energy's strength resulted from the bounce in crude oil prices ($WTIC) as the price of crude rose 3.20% and for a second consecutive session, ending the two week decline from $42 per barrel to $36.

Market Recap for Tuesday, April 5, 2016

U.S. equities had a rough day from the opening bell on Tuesday. The Dow Jones fell more than 100 points in a session for the first time in nearly a month as the rally off the February 11th bottom has continued to unfold. The largest percentage loss was felt on the Russell 2000 ($RUT), where that small cap index fell 1.14% and closed on its low of the day. I'm highlighting the potential downside target for the RUT in the Current Outlook section below.

Germany had a rough day on Tuesday, losing 259 points or 2.63%. I view this as a big negative for U.S. stocks and I explain why in the Sector/Industry Watch section below. The weekly downtrend appears to be resuming and that could put pressure on stocks here.

Among sectors on Tuesday, the red-hot utilities sector sold off 1.88% to approach its rising 20 day EMA. Despite leading to the downside on Tuesday, the XLU remains the best performing sector over the past three months, six months and year.
