Financial services companies outperformed banks: Berkshire Hathaway gained 3.3% after reporting better than expected quarterly earnings Saturday. Other gainers included Bank on NY Mellon +2.0%, Ameriprise +1.8, Ivesco +1.7%.
  • Media and entertainment shares buoyed Communication services: Paramount +2.45%, News Corp +2.25%, Google +1.7%. Service providers supported Health Care sector, Davita +5.67%, ResMed +3.37%, Humana +2.5%.
  • Laggers: Information Technology, Consumer Discretionary and Utilities underperformed. Hardware makers weighed on IT: Arista Networks -2.15%, Apple -2.05%, Zebra Tech -1.8%. Autos weighed on discretionary stocks with Tesla -3.56, Ford -.2%.
  • Technicals: Last week’s move lower reinforces a bearish theme and resulted in a break of support at the 20-day EMA. The recent failure at the top of the bull channel also highlights a bearish development and the risk of an extension lower near-term. Further downside would open 4453.93, the 50-day EMA. First key resistance is at 4634.50, the Jul 27 high.
