Deep dives
Energy Sector Rally
The energy sector has seen a significant rally with drillers leading the way as Brent crude tops $86 and natural gas gains momentum. Companies like APA, Devon, Kotor, and OXI are up over 4%. Positive drilling activity also benefits services names like SLB and Baker Hughes. However, refiners like Marathon Petroleum, Valero, and Phillips 66 have lagged due to ongoing soft gasoline demand.
Crypto Market Volatility
Bitcoin experiences a sell-off, dropping below $60,000 and remains well below its high of $73,000. Factors contributing to the decline include outflows from ETFs, sensitivity to macroeconomic data and recent industry-specific news. Additionally, Bitcoin's movement correlates with high growth and momentum stock performance, indicating a broader market sentiment shift.
Market Dynamics and Rotation
The market continues to show resilience after the pullback in semiconductors, particularly in NVIDIA's correction phase. With positive market breadth and performance in laggard sectors, there is a coordinated ecosystem fostering a balanced market reaction. Investors are actively engaged in rotational trades, with emphasis on finding opportunities in oversold conditions.
Bank Sector Performance
While banks were relative laggards, recent news of potentially relaxed Fed standards has buoyed the sector. Despite lower Treasury yields in recent weeks, banks have shown resilience. This shift signals a dynamic market response, where pockets of strength emerge in sectors previously overlooked, reflecting investor interest in relative trades.
Is the second half set-up favorable for the rally to continue? Solus’ Dan Greenhaus and NB Private Wealth’s Shannon Saccocia give their predictions. Plus, Nvidia sold off again in today’s session after snapping an 8 week win streak. Dan Chung – CEO and CIO of Alger – tells us if this is warning sign for this year’s tech-led rally heading into the second half. And, top technician Jeff DeGraaf called the sell-off in Nvidia. He weighs in on that stock’s move and reveals the sector he thinks is ripe to break out.
