Invest and Trade Profitably with Jon Johnson

Weekender for 6/4

1. Market Summary

Big Nasdaq Names Lead the Upside

  • Stocks rally as new money for a new month hits the market, but pare gains in the last hour ahead of the May Jobs Report
  • Big Nasdaq names lead the upside as Nasdaq twins, S&P 500 sport strong moves.
  • Money moves into oil stocks, metals and other forgotten sectors, but this simply suggests new money being put to work and these moves may not show staying power.
  • The PHLX Semiconductor Sector (SOX) somewhat disappoints, DJ30 shows promise, the small-caps and mid-caps show more of the same as the continue to lag.
  • Jobs market again shows solid numbers, but wage shrinkage suggests a different story.
  • Jobs Report Friday speaks directly to the Fed’s next action or inaction.

Any questions we had Wednesday night about market participants waiting through the jobs report were somewhat answered Thursday. The big-name Nasdaq stocks broke nicely higher, e.g. Amazon, Meta and Netflix. Some chips moved as well, e.g. NVIDIA (5%), Applied Materials, Inc. and ON Semiconductor Corp.
