DAILY UPDATE: Tesla and DJT Stock Down

Posted on March 31, 2024 by Dr. David Edward Marcinko MBA MEd CMP™

HAPPY EASTER

Tesla had a rough quarter

The company’s stock was the worst performing in the S&P 500 in Q1, dropping 29%, amid fierce competition from Chinese electric carmakers, slowdowns from Red Sea shipping routes, arson at its German factory, Nordic labor battles, and controversies surrounding CEO Elon Musk.

Now, investors are warily watching to see what delivery numbers Tesla reports. But one group did make lots of money off the company as it lost over $230 billion in value last quarter: short sellers.

Donald Trump’s namesake social media company burst out of the gate on its first day of trading Tuesday, opening at $70.90 and soaring as high as $79.38 as Trump fans and opportunistic traders bought up shares. But the price faded late in the session and has bounced along at lower levels ever since, ending Thursday down $4.26 at $61.96 on the NASDAQ. The stock exchange was closed Friday in observance of Good Friday.

DAILY UPDATE: Good Friday’s Impressive First Quarter Stock Market Returns

Posted on March 29, 2024 by Dr. David Edward Marcinko MBA MEd CMP™

The stock market will be closed Friday, March 29th, for Good Friday. While Good Friday is a stock market holiday, it is not a federal holiday. As a result, the February Personal Consumption and Expenditures (PCE) Price Index will be released this Friday morning.

Yesterday, on the final trading session of March and the first quarter, the returns for major stock indexes are impressive, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average up 5% this quarter or 2,000 points and the S&P 500 and the tech-heavy NASDAQ up 11% apiece. Stock superlatives for 2024’s opening stretch are numerous, including each of the three indexes setting respective all-time highs and the benchmark S&P heading toward its best first-quarter return since 2019 and its second consecutive quarter of double-digit percentage gains since 2011-12.

CITE: https://www.r2library.com/Resource

Here’s where the major benchmarks ended Thursday:

The S&P 500 index added 5.86 points (0.1%) to 5,254.35, up 0.4% for the week; the Dow Jones Industrial Average climbed 47.29 points (0.1%) to 39,807.37, up 0.8% for the week; the NASDAQ Composite lost 20.06 points (0.1%) to 16,379.46, down 0.3% for the week.
The 10-year Treasury note yield rose one basis point to just under 4.21%.
The CBOE Volatility Index^® (VIX) rose 0.22 to 13.00.

For the month, the S&P 500 index gained 3.1%, the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 2.1%, and the NASDAQ Composite added 1.8%. For the quarter, the three indexes rose 10.3%, 5.6%, and 9.2%, respectively.

DAILY UPDATE: Bureau of Labor Statistics

Posted on April 8, 2023 by Dr. David Edward Marcinko MBA MEd CMP™

U.S. Department of Labor

By Staff Reporters

It is Easter Weekend Saturday which was a stock market holiday weekend but not a federal holiday. That results in a highly unusual scenario when the government released the pivotal jobs report yesterday. Good Friday, the stock market didn’t open to react to it. Investors will have to spend three days before placing their wagers on Monday.

CITE: https://www.r2library.com/Resource

Nevertheless, the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ (BLS) report yesterday [Friday] was on par with what economists had expected from the jobs market as the Fed hiked interest rates. March saw about 75,000 fewer jobs added to the economy compared with February, which was already a drop compared with the 504,000 jobs that were added in January. The unemployment rate dropped 0.1% to 3.5%. Fewer jobs were added to leisure and hospitality and healthcare than in previous months, though the industries are still trending up in job availability. Government and professional and business services continued to grow at similar paces as previous months. Ahead of the government’s job survey other reports gave hints that the labor market, while still growing, is cooling from highs seen over the last two years. BLS’ Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey last week showed that employers are starting to slow the pace of hiring. There were less than 10 million active job openings by the end of February for the first time in nearly two years.

Friday’s jobs report provided data that will heavily influence the Fed’s decision to either halt or continue interest rate hikes at its next board meeting in early May.

The financial markets will be closed on Friday, April 7th, for Good Friday holiday observation. Most firms will process transaction requests received on April 7th as if received on Monday, April 10, before 4 p.m., Eastern Standard Time. Since it is not a federal holiday, almost everything else will be open. The U.S. bond market will open at its usual 8 a.m. EDT on Friday but close early at noon EDT. Regular hours resume on Monday.

Here’s how the major indexes performed Thursday:

•The S&P 500^® Index rose 14.64 points (0.4%) to 4105.02; the Dow Jones industrial average was little changed at 33,485.29; the NASDAQ Composite rose 91.09 (0.8%) to 12,087.96.

•The 10-year Treasury yield rose about 2 basis points to 3.305%.

•CBOE’s Volatility Index was down 0.68 at 18.40.

After jumping 7% in the first quarter, the S&P 500 Index started out the second quarter posting a slight drop for the week. Tech stocks were generally firm, and communication services led gainers among S&P 500 sectors, while energy stocks led declines. WTI crude futures were little changed but remained above $80 a barrel and near two-month highs. Gold futures extended Wednesday declines from 13-month highs.

UPDATE: Holiday Weekend Investing?

Posted on April 15, 2022 by Dr. David Edward Marcinko MBA MEd CMP™

Investors are about to embark on a three-day (or three-and-a-half-day) holiday weekend.

The stock market is closed on Friday, April 15, 2022 – Good Friday, as well as the start of Passover this year – ahead of the Easter Sunday holiday, which falls on April 17th. As a result, no major earnings are scheduled for Good Friday.

However, bond traders will enjoy not just a full Friday off, but also had a partial trading day Thursday. The bond markets shut down early, at 2 p.m., for Maundy Thursday. Stock and bond trading resume at their normal hours on Monday, the day after Easter Sunday.

Markets: But, all three major indexes posted a losing week as investors weighed solid Q1 earnings against threats like inflation and the war in Ukraine … with the threats getting more attention. But there’s nothing like a three-day weekend for a reset.

Corona: A Pfizer-BioNTech booster shot boosts immunity against Covid in ages 5–11, the companies said yesterday.
