Market Evaluation
Markets fell across the board. Treasury 10-year yields topped 4%, dollar hit a one-month high and the S&P 500 lost steam.
Business activity dropped sharply in New York State, according to firms responding to the January 2024 Empire State Manufacturing Survey.
The headline general business conditions index fell twenty-nine points to -43.7, its lowest reading since May 2020.
Roughly 30 S&P 500 companies have reported calendar fourth-quarter results thus far. Of those, 78% have beaten earnings expectations.
Markets Breakdown
The comments of Sunday’s report were clear.
We had the first signs of strong sellers preventing a higher high and we have witnessed this behavior today as well.
The volume for this upside accumulation was as weak as it gets.
Buyers need to show way more activity to push the market for a new higher high of this range.
