The Nasdaq hit a 2023 high last week, but other indexes fell and breadth remained weak. The current market action is dangerous for investors. 1/

Yes, the Nasdaq rose slightly for the week while the S&P 500 and Dow fell. But all extended their streak of tight weekly closes. Even the Dow held support at the 50-day/10-week lines. 2/ Image

The market rally soared on tame inflation data, with the Nasdaq having its best week since March. The Nas and S&P 500 decisively cleared their 50-day lines while the Dow and Russell 2000 topped the 200-day. $TSLA $ANET $PSTG $MBLY $FLEX $FOUR $AAPL (1/6) investors.com/market-trend/s… ImageImageImageImage Treasury yields and the dollar plunged. For the next few weeks, there won't be big inflation/labor data, so that could give the market rally room/time to run. But that doesn't mean investors should quickly ramp up exposure.

Market rally revived last week. The S&P 500 and Russell 2000 reclaimed their 50-day & 21-day lines, the Nasdaq moved slightly above its 50-day. The Dow finished just shy. Can't quite say rally decisively broke above 50D. (1/5) investors.com/market-trend/s… $TSLA $ANET $PSTG $ENPH $NBIX But in some ways the market is a lot better than the big-cap indexes suggest. $RSP, the equal-weight S&P 500 ETF, retook its 50-day line on Wed. and kept rising. Megacaps, though they did fine Fri., have masked broader market strength. (2/5)

The stock market hit resistance near the 200-day line, retreating after weeks of gains. The Nasdaq is moving toward its 21-day EMA. A pullback could create a slew of setups, but investors should wait to see how it plays out.

Stocks shrugged off reversals on Monday & Thursday, ending the week with strong gains. The market rally now faces the 200-day line, which the Russell 2000 just crossed. Here's what investors should do now. (1/6)
