Market Overview
A late rally helped stocks close higher on Monday as long-term Treasuries rose above 3% ahead of the Fed meeting this week.
The Nasdaq closed up by +1.63%. The high closing range of 98% came after the index rallied in the final hour of trading. The index flipped from a red to green in the rally, leaving behind a long lower wick below a 60% green body. Volume was higher than the previous day. There was a nearly equal number of advancing and declining stocks.
The Russell 2000 (RUT) gained +1.01%. The S&P 500 (SPX) rose by +0.57%. The Dow Jones Industrial Average advanced by +0.26%. The VIX Volatility Index fell by -3.17%.
Six of the eleven S&P 500 sectors gained today. Communications (XLC +2.76%) and Energy (XLE +1.60%) topped the sector list while Consumer Staples (XLP -1.31%) and Real Estate (XLRE -2.60%) were at the bottom.
Purchasing Manager Index data released in the morning showed a contraction in manufacturing activity which echoed data coming from China.
The US Dollar Index (DXY) gained +0.38% today, moving back toward recent highs. The US 30y Treasury Yield topped 3% for the first time since 2019. The 10y and 2y Treasury Yields also rose today. High Yield (HYG) and Investment Grade (LQD) Corporate Bond prices were lower. Silver and Gold continue to sink, credit to the strengthening dollar. Brent Oil is at $107 per barrel.
The put/call ratio (PCCE) declined to 1.03, remaining in a bearish range. The CNN Fear & Greed index remains deep in the Fear range.
All of the big six mega-caps gained today. Meta (FB) led the gains with a +5.32% advance. Amazon (AMZN) just barely closed with a gain, rising +0.18% for the day after dipping nearly 5% earlier in the session.
Meta and Nvidia (NVDA) both gained +5.32% to top the mega-cap list. PepsiCo (PEP) was at the bottom of the list with a -2.30% decline.
All but two stocks in the Daily Update Growth List gained today, most advancing more than 4%. Roku (ROKU) was the top gainer with a +11.01% advance. DataDog (DDOG) and Niu Tech (NIU) were the two decliners, dropping by -0.48% and -1.05%, respectively.

Looking ahead
The big news this week be on Wednesday with the Fed interest rate decision. For tomorrow, we will get Factory Orders and the JOLTs Job Openings report for March. In the afternoon, the weekly API Crude Oil Stock report will arrive.
Pfizer (PFE), AMD (AMD), Airbnb (ABNB), Starbucks (SBUX), and Hilton (HLT) are among the earning reports for Tuesday.

Trends, Support, and Resistance
The late session rally wasn't enough to move the one-day regression trend line to an uptrend.
The one-day and five-day trend lines and the trend line from the 3/29 high are pointing to a -1.52% decline for Tuesday.
-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-
Wrap-up
I'm not sure the rally in the late afternoon today means much. The put/call ratio is still high. So as some investors turned bullish, there are still plenty of investors that are betting on further declines.
There's not much to go on for expectations on Tuesday, but we can probably look forward to more choppiness as investors prepare for Wednesday's Fed decisions.
Stay healthy and trade safe!
