Stock market rise
The stock market rally quickly eased after Tuesday’s open and continued to trend lower during the day before trimming losses slightly near the close.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 1% on Tuesday Stock market trading. The S&P 500 lost 1.4%. The Nasdaq Composite fell 2%. Small cap Russell 2000 fell 1.5%
Apple stock, a member of the Dow Jones, S&P 500 and Nasdaq composite, fell 2.5% to 142.91, retreating from its 50-day line. XOM stock fell 2.8%, and it is also below the 50-day line and also under a buy point. Exxon shares are struggling with falling oil, gasoline and natural gas prices.
Amazon stock fell 3% to 88.25, closing as low as November 9 at 85.87. Tesla shares fell 1.4 percent to 179.82, off their lowest levels for the day, but after falling 6.4 percent on Monday. TSLA is moving towards 52-week lows but still has some way to go before it drops to the 166.19 mark.
US crude oil prices fell 3.5 percent to $74.25 a barrel.
The 10-year Treasury yield fell 9 basis points to 3.51%, back near its lowest level since Sept. 20.
The stock market’s inverse relationship with Treasury yields may collapse. The increasingly lower 10-year Treasury yield may reflect rising recessionary risks against declining inflation pressures. The yield curve, which continues to invert further, indicates recession fears.

Market rally analysis
The stock market rally continues the frustrating trend of jumping four steps forward, and then doing so again over the next few days.
Major indices have fallen strongly for two straight sessions, erasing or undermining the big gains in Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell’s speech last Wednesday.
The S&P 500, which again fell below the 200-day line on Monday, extended its losses on Tuesday to trim the 21-day line. The Russell 2000 Index, which fell below the 200-day and 21-day lines, fell to its lowest close since November 9, with the 50-day line back in play.
The S&P MidCap 400 closed below the 21-day line for the first time since October 20 and fell to test the 200-day mark.
The Dow Jones, which led the market rally, fell below the 21-day line for the first time since October 14, but it is well above the 200-day mark.
The lagging Nasdaq has lowered the 21-day line and is again approaching the 50-day line, just above the 11,000 level.
All of these indexes closed at their worst levels since Oct. 9, ahead of the Oct. 10 gap in the October CPI inflation report.
Last Wednesday’s big gains in the market were baffling at the time, because Fed Chair Powell said nothing different or pessimistic. Major indexes held on Friday, with Treasury yields finally closing lower, despite a hot jobs report that was even more baffling.
But the artistic picture is familiar.
Since the stock market rally began on October 13, major indices have made several big gains in one day – such as October 28 and November 30. But then it quickly backtracked, wiping out most, all, or most of that big gain.
So, with major indices reaching higher peaks and blue chip buy signals, the market’s impulsiveness begins to fade again.

What are you doing now
So far, the market rally has eventually rebounded each time, recording higher highs along the way. But that doesn’t mean it will happen this time. More importantly, this does not mean that your stocks will rebound.
Until the S&P 500 moves decisively above the 200-day line, investors should be wary of adding exposure. Both the Nasdaq and Russell 2000 falling below their 50-day lines, and the S&P 500 testing its October highs, would be signals to reduce exposure further.
Also note that the November CPI inflation report will be released on December 13th, with the Fed’s year-end interest rate hike and Powell’s press conference the next day. These large events can provide a catalyst for a market breakout up or down.
So investors must be ready to act. This means having watchlists ready, but it also means staying agile and flexible.
