Stocks July 9, 2008


After a big up day yesterday, the market tanked today. It is important to note that the overall market trend is still southward, and the sellers came back in droves today. The market erased all the gains from yesterday.

The small cap Russell 2000 index ( -2.78% ) and the tech heavy Nasdaq  ( -2.6% ) took the brunt of the beating. 227 new lows were registered on the Nasdaq as compared to 40 new highs.

The indices were up in the morning and closed near intra-day lows. 

On a positive note, volume was lower.

The sectors that lost the most were Financials (IYF -5.1%) and Real-Estate (ICF -7.67%) ETFs. Among the industry groups losing ground were Home Construction (ITB -7.31%), Broker-Dealers (IAI -5.87%) and Regional Banks (RKH -5.2%), Semiconductors (IGW -4.05%) and Leisure & Entertainment (PEJ -3.31%).

The sectors that ended higher were Metals & Mining (XME 0.6%), Utilities (IDU 0.81%) and Healthcare (XLV 0.48%). The industry groups that did well included Pharmaceuticals (XPH 1.11%), Hospitals, Food & Metal products, Steel (SLX 0.80%), Coal (KOL 0.42%).

As is to be expected from the sector rotation model, defensive sectors that include Healthcare, Utilities and Consumer Staples have been demonstrating strength lately.
