Good MorningThe S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average snapped three-day winning streaks on Tuesday putting an early end to the Santa Claus Rally. The decline comes just a day after the indices set new all-time highs and may lead to a deeper decline on Wednesday. There is growing evidence of weakness within the market that has it set up to fall 2-3% over the coming days.
The signs of weakness include tepid volume and divergences in both the MACD and stochastic indicators. Divergences are important signals for traders and investors to watch for. A divergence happens when a stock, index, or commodity moves to set a new high or a new low, and the indicators fail to match it. The caveat is that divergences do not always lead to market declines, at least not deep ones. With the market in an uptrend, it is possible a 2% to 3% decline will result in another buying opportunity.

From Our Partners | | Moderna's stock doubled in a single day after its cancer vaccine hit key Phase 3 goals, and Merck jumped too. But according to a former Steve Cohen fund manager, the next big opportunity is not Moderna or Merck.
It is a different kind of company tied to a technology already backed by Elon Musk, Sam Altman, Jeff Bezos, and Peter Thiel. Nvidia's Jensen Huang says it will have a dramatic impact on daily life, while Anthropic's CEO believes it could unlock a century of medical progress in just ten years.
