U.S. Stocks; Apple, Amazon Make Bullish Moves

The U.S. stock market made record highs early Tuesday, but eased in morning trading. Technology shares took the lead as Apple (AAPL) and Amazon.com (AMZN) made bullish moves.

 

 

The Nasdaq composite, which is nearly 50% comprised of tech stocks, climbed 0.1%. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note fell 7 basis points to 1.36%, which appeared to be helping techs. Amazon.com, one of the largest stocks in the Nasdaq and S&P 500, broke out past the 3,524.96 buy point of a cup with handle base. Volume was heavy.

The technology sector was alone in posting gains. Technology Select Sector SPDR ETF (XLK) climbed 0.4%.

Software Leads U.S. Stocks

Software was particularly strong, with iShares Expanded Tech-Software (IGV) up 0.8%. Semiconductor stocks held up: VanEck Vectors Semiconductor ETF (SMH) rose 0.2%.

Aside from tech, the rest of the S&P sector indexes were lower. Energy Select Sector SPDR ETF (XLE) was down 1.7%, the weakest S&P sector.

The S&P 500 added its eighth consecutive new high, but only briefly. The index backed off 0.7%, threatening to snap a seven-day win streak.  The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 1.1%. The Russell 2000 slid 1.7%.

Dow component American Express (AXP) rose 1.4% to a new high after Goldman Sachs upgraded the firm to buy from neutral with a price target of 225.

Apple (AAPL) rose nearly 2% after JPMorgan Chase raised its price target to 170 from 165 and maintained an overweight rating. Apple stock traded around 141 and is nearly out of buy range from a 13.17 buy point. Notably, volume is running well above average today, something lacking since Apple broke out of a cup without handle last week.

Oil prices shot up after the OPEC+ group called off a meeting scheduled for Monday as member nations failed to reach an agreement on raising oil production. The United Arab Emirates refused to back a Saudi plan to boost output, insisting that its quota be calculated differently. The deal would have added millions of barrels a day to ease a steady rise in oil prices. Yet U.S. crude this morning fell to $73.9 a barrel, down more than 3% from Friday’s close. Brent crude rose 0.8% to $77.77 a barrel.
