Stocks Recover After Sell-Off; Southern Copper, Sweetgreen, OWL In Focus
The first estimate to Q1 GDP came in at 1.6%, well below the 2.3% consensus. Core inflation on a year-over-year basis also came in above expectations, raising fears of stagflation. Stocks moved off lows even as the 10-year Treasury yield rallied above 4.70% and hit a five-month high. It’s been an orderly pull back for Southern Copper so far; Sweetgreen is holding support at its 10-week line; Blue Owl Capital is still in a buy zone ahead of earnings next week.

On the defensive end, Church & Dwight broke out of a flat base, Alphabet has reestablished itself as a relative strength leader and Heico is flirting with resistance around 200.

Bull Market Precedent Breaks Wide Open; Nvidia, SMCI Plunge
The major indexes suffered significant losses Friday, with the S&P 500 breaking below the key 5,000 level. Last Friday was an expectation breaker, signaling more weakness could follow – and that’s exactly what we got. The bull market precedent of 2003 is officially broken.
