Morning Lineup - 2/13/25 - The Meh Seven
Thu, Feb 13, 2025

What looked like it would be a troublesome day for bulls yesterday took a positive turn as the S&P 500 opened down nearly 1% at the open after CPI came in surprisingly high. The opening ticks were as bad as things got, though, and from there, stocks staged a comeback throughout the trading session even as yields only pulled back modestly from their intraday highs.

The S&P 500 successfully tested its 50-day moving average right at the open, but bulls still have something to prove as a pattern of lower highs has started to set in since the high in late January. Individual investors appear to be increasingly worried about the market's churning lately as the American Association of Individual Investors (AAII) gauge of bearish sentiment has surged from 34.0% to 47.3% in the last two weeks!

This morning, futures sit right around the unchanged level ahead of the January PPI and after a rollercoaster overnight session where futures sold off into the Asian close and have rallied since then as European stocks rally (again).

 

Here is a final look at today's market and futures maps, as well as how each sector performed individually at the close on Thursday, February 13th, 2025.

Morning Lineup - 2/14/25 - What's Old is New Again
Fri, Feb 14, 2025

After coming up just a couple of points short of a closing record high yesterday, US equity futures are heading into the long weekend on a very modest negative note while the 10-year yield is unchanged. There's a decent amount of economic data to deal with so the placid tone will likely change between now and the closing bell. Retail Sales were just released, and the January readings came in significantly weaker than expected although December's report was revised higher. Import and Export Prices were largely inline with forecasts.

Also, the last three Fridays have seen stocks sell off into the weekend as investors look to avoid any potential tape bombs. With a three-day weekend on the horizon after today, if the market manages to avoid a sell-off like it has done the last three Fridays, that would be considered a win!

Gordon Moore co-founded Intel (INTC) in 1968, and in the above quote, he was brutally humble about his fallibility regarding large technological trends. While Intel (INTC) was on the cutting edge of the semiconductor industry for its first few decades, the company has missed a lot of major tech developments and trends over the last decade. The stock has paid handsomely for it. After trading above $60 less than four years ago, INTC recently traded below $20 shedding 70% of its value.



This week, though, INTC has done something not seen since its glory days. In the five trading days ending Thursday, the stock rallied 24.5% which is a level it has only exceeded in three other periods in the last 30 years – January 2000, April 2001, and October 2002.
