Morning Brief

July 14th, 2021

Headline News:

U.S. stock futures are higher after Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell is set to say the central bank was still ways off from altering its easy policies. The remarks will come today in the Chariman’s semiannual testimony before Congress, and he is also expected to state he expects inflation to moderate later in the year. Also, second-quarter earnings have started, and investors will be watching the reports closely for signs U.S companies are still financially strong.

Markets:

The S&P tried and failed to break out above resistance at 4386.68 and closed lower at 4369.68. Hopefully, the index will now form a new base before attempting to achieve another new high. If, so potential support could now come in at 4361.88, and possible resistance is now at 4386.68. The Advance/Decline line is close to breaking an uptrend line, so we feel there is a chance the index is still in danger of a potential short-term pullback soon.

We are currently long-term bullish and short-term bearish.

Futures trading is speculative, leveraged, and involves substantial risks. Investing always involves risk, including the loss of principal, and futures trading could present additional risk based on underlying commodities investments.

 

The Relative Strength Index (RSI), developed by J. Welles Wilder, is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and changes of price movements.

 

The advance/decline line (A/D) is a technical indicator that plots the difference between the number of advancing and declining stocks on a daily basis. The indicator is cumulative, with a positive number being added to the prior number, or if the number is negative it is subtracted from the prior number.

The A/D line is used to show market sentiment, as it tells traders whether there are more stocks rising or falling. It is used to confirm price trends in major indexes, and can also warn of reversals when divergence occurs.

 

 

The S&P 500 is an unmanaged index of 500 widely held stocks that is generally considered representative of the U.S stock market. Past performance may not be indicative of future results. Keep in mind that individuals cannot invest directly in any index, and index performance does not include transaction costs or other fees, which will affect actual investment performance. Individual investors’ results will vary. Opinions expressed are those of the author John N. Lilly III, and not necessarily those of Raymond James. “There is no guarantee that these statements, opinions, or forecast provided herein will prove to be correct. “The information contained was received from sources believed to be reliable, but accuracy is not guaranteed.

US government bonds and treasury bills are guaranteed by the US government and, if held to maturity, offer a fixed rate of return and guaranteed principal value.  US government bonds are issued and guaranteed as to the timely payment of principal and interest by the federal government.  Bond prices and yields are subject to change based upon market conditions and availability. If bonds are sold prior to maturity, you may receive more or less than your initial investment. Holding bonds to term allows redemption at par value. There is an inverse relationship between interest rate movements and bond prices. Generally, when interest rates rise, bond prices fall and when interest rates fall, bond prices generally rise.
