Good MorningSelling resumed on Wall Street after weak earnings from key tech names raised doubts about the season. The S&P 500 shed more than 2.25% at the session low, breaking below a critical support target. The move takes the index below the 30-day moving average, where the selling could intensify. The takeaway is that a sector rotation is underway, led by tech stocks. Google and Tesla were among the leaders, falling more than 5% and 10%, respectively. The risk now is that the PCE report on Friday will be insufficient to sustain the rally, and the market will move lower.
As bad as the market looks now, the sell-off is a function of healthy markets. In preparation for a broader rally later this year, the market is taking profits in stocks that have run up by high double or triple digits. The broader rally will be driven by falling interest rates, easing economic headwinds, and accelerated profit growth, including all sectors and industries.
