Understanding September's Market Landscape
As we step into September, it's a well-known fact that this month can often bring challenges for market investors. Historical trends suggest that the opening days of September can appear grim, casting a shadow over the optimistic vibes from August's close.
Despite the known difficulties of September, it's crucial to remain cautious and not be swayed by old sayings. Trading based on popular beliefs can lead to oversimplified decisions, so maintaining a balanced outlook is advisable.
Market Movements and Sector Analysis
Observations show that the NASDAQ has taken a hit, but let’s not overlook that sectors such as Retail, represented by the Retail ETF, are striving to maintain stability, holding onto their 50-day moving average (50-DMA). On the flip side, the Transportation sector is performing well, currently above its 50-DMA and retaining its position within a favorable range established in July.
Establishing Daily Themes
With the arrival of a new season, it's an opportune moment to implement consistent themes for trading days. Here’s the proposed schedule going forward:
- Technical Mondays: Features interesting technical setups.
- Turnaround Tuesdays: Focused on stocks or sectors that have reversed direction or show potential to do so.
- Hump Day Wednesdays: Middle-of-the-week evaluations and expectations for the remainder of the week.
- Thursdays: No specialized daily reports.
- Finale Fridays: Weekly performance summaries and preparation for the upcoming week.
Spotlight on Potential Turnaround Stocks
Given today’s Turnaround Tuesday theme marked by declines, particularly in technology stocks, we also explore two companies that could be on the verge of a rebound.
For clarity, we hold no investment positions in these stocks.
Stratasys (NASDAQ: SSYS) is a prominent name in the 3-D printing sector, having seen its shares peak in July 2023 before experiencing a significant drop. Following a gap down after earnings, SSYS managed to reverse on the same day, currently trading within that day's range. Given the industry's struggle with profitability, a potential 'island bottom' could signal hopeful growth for this company.
MP Materials (NYSE: MP) specializes in rare earth minerals and recently announced a substantial buyback program. Despite navigating a downturn since 2022, significant bullish divergence observed on momentum indicators hints at transformative potential should it surpass its 50-DMA.
ETF Summary
Key levels of interest:
- S&P 500 (SPY): 550 is pivotal at the 50-DMA
- Russell 2000 (IWM): 212 is crucial for maintaining the 50-DMA
- Dow (DIA): 410 shows current support
- Nasdaq (QQQ): Still in a warning phase with 455 as possible support
- Regional Banks (KRE): 57 is pivotal
- Semiconductors (SMH): The sector remains the weakest, holding support at 217, which aligns with the 200-DMA
- Transportation (IYT): Maintaining an inside day with some relative strength
- Biotechnology (IBB): New trading range established between 145-150
- Retail (XRT): Failed at the 50-DMA, requiring additional confirmation
- iShares iBoxx High Yield Corporate Bond ETF (HYG): Weaker but still indicates risk-on unless it drops below 78
