Market Rise Analysis
The stock market rally looked hard hit last Thursday in the wake of Fed Chairman Jerome Powell’s hawkish comments. But it has been recovering over the past three sessions, even with bitcoin’s problems.
The Dow crossed last week’s high after recovering the 200 line on Monday.
The S&P 500 moved slightly higher above the 50-day line, although it is still below its November 1 high in the short term.
The Nasdaq, weighed down by Tesla and technical problems, hit resistance at its 21-day moving average. It’s still below 50 days and far from the 200 day streaks.
But the Direxion Nasdaq-100 ETF is equally weighted (QQQE) rose just over 1% to cross the 50-day streak.
Falling Treasury yields helped stocks rally on Tuesday, while a falling dollar has been a major driver in the past three sessions.
The midterm election results may spur market moves, but Thursday’s CPI inflation report could be key. A weak CPI reading could fuel hopes of a slowdown in interest rate hikes by the Federal Reserve And the lower peak rate. But still, another hot inflation number could lead to a massive sell-off in stocks and bonds.

What are you doing now
The stock market rally shows resilience after sharp losses last week, with the Dow Jones and S&P 500 regaining key levels. Investors may still want to be cautious, with the CPI inflation report approaching. Also, there aren’t a lot of actionable stocks currently, although many have been created.
Investors must be prepared to take action, by staying in touch and building your watch lists. Growth stocks are still not generally favored, so make sure you cast a wide net to find stocks and sectors that are emerging leaders.
Be sure to be aware of earnings that remain active. Some stocks were big dividend winners, while others rebounded strongly after initially falling. But there were also high-profile sell-offs, as Disney and Lucid’s stock showed overnight.
