stock market rise

The stock market rally attempted to bounce on Tuesday, but not for long.

Before the opening, the Labor Department reported that consumer inflation jumped to 8.5% in March, its highest rate since 1981. But core inflation, although at a long-term high of 6.5%, came in just below estimates. Combined with lower gasoline prices and tougher comparisons throughout the year, there is growing hope for March represents peak inflation. That could ease the pressure on consumers and mean the Fed doesn’t have to raise rates as much.

But any Fed turnaround will be on the way. Fed Governor Lyle Brainard said after the CPI inflation report on Tuesday that the Fed will move “urgently” to raise interest rates and reiterated that the decision to cut the balance sheet could come “as soon as possible” as the actual cuts begin in June.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed down 0.3% on Tuesday stock market trading. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite were also down 0.3%. Small cap Russell 2000 rose 0.3%.

US crude oil prices jumped 6.7% to $100.60 a barrel.

The 10-year Treasury yield fell 5 basis points to 2.73%, albeit far from intraday lows.

Market Rise Analysis

The stock market rally saw a strong rebound Tuesday morning after the release of the CPI inflation report, with the Dow and S&P 500 recovering their 50-day moving averages briefly. But the major indexes all reversed to close slightly lower, with the Nasdaq making an external reversal after Monday’s sharp losses.

Even at intraday highs, major indicators have not broken through sharp downtrends since late March.

Small cap Russell 2000 rallied, but came away from the highs after hitting resistance at the 50-day line.

Until the Nasdaq regains the 50-day line and the S&P 500 regains the 200-day line, the short-term trend will remain negative. Even the restoration of these levels is likely to leave the bullish market “under pressure”.

But for now, the Nasdaq has given up more than half of its recent gains from its March 14th low.

The energy and commodity sector are still the leading areas. Defense, pharmaceuticals and some retail pockets work well. Technology and growth hit hard.

Apple and Tesla stocks are among the best looking growth names, and they don’t look very doable at the moment. TSLA stock is trying to reverse even with Tesla Shanghai closed since March 28. Tesla’s first-quarter earnings are due on April 20, but investors are likely to focus on short-term expectations and long-term initiatives. Apple earnings come on April 28.
