As quickly as the 10-year Treasury yield rose, the two-year Treasury yield rose even faster, narrowing the gap to just 20 basis points. The flat Treasury yield curve, inverted in some places, reflects expectations that the Federal Reserve will raise rates aggressively, and that economic growth will slow.

Nvidia stock

Nvidia stock advanced 4.7% to 276.92 in the last week, reviving semiconductors after a nearly 20% rally the previous week. On Thursday, stocks got rid of short-term resistance levels, providing a solid entry. Just in the middle of the right side up of a deep consolidation with a potential 346.57 buy point, the NVDA stock could use a handle. The Nvidia stock may need to be slightly raised to form a proper handle, with the midpoint above the midpoint of the base.

Marriott Stock

Marriott stock rose 0.2% last week to 171.52. Stocks flopped on Friday with 173.54 early entries. After breaking out with several other travel stocks in early February, MAR’s shares sold off badly in the Russo-Ukrainian War. Rebound in V-shape consolidation. Point of purchase 173.54 is just above the top of the “handle”, which is not convenient because the fixation needs another week to form a proper base. Also the entry is close to the previous buy point which is no longer valid but still noteworthy.

After strong gains in the past two weeks, REGN stock fell 0.8% to 680.03 last week, building a higher handle in the buying zone at flat base. Regeneron stock is still above 673.96 buying points, which now looks much safer after the last stop. REGN stock has already liquidated early entries near 636 and 645.

JBHT Stock

JB Hunt stock is down 2.7% to 209.19, drifting lower for several sessions after the strong breakout on March 6.

But JBHT stock fell below 208.97 buying points of the flat base late last week, but on Friday rebounded from the 21-day line to return to the buying zone. Investors can buy the trucking company here, or wait for JBHT stock to break the short downtrend by reaching Thursday’s high of 213.29.

Market Rise Analysis

The stock market rally had a good week, with the Nasdaq rallying strongly and the S&P 500 regaining its 200-day streak. The Dow Jones is approaching the 200-day line. Russell 2000 fell modestly.

It is impressive that the Nasdaq in particular has been able to rally strongly in the past two weeks despite the rise in Treasury yields during that time. It’s hard to believe that growth stocks can continue to advance if bond yields continue to rise at such a rapid pace. But it could have been said a week ago.

However, major indicators sometimes ignore interest rate hikes for some time in order not to.

Much of the strength of the Nasdaq index last week was strongly reflected in sharp gains in major companies such as Apple, Tesla, Nvidia and Google Parent the alphabet (Google). ARKK’s decline last week, although relatively modest, suggests that higher Treasury yields may start to weigh on high-value growth stocks.

One concern is that if these mega companies lose steam, growth stocks will sell out sharply, especially ARKK-type stocks.

However, a modest market pullback should help Tesla, Nvidia, Apple and more stocks handle shape and allow their moving averages to catch up. It will also reduce the risk of a more severe slippage in the market.

On the other hand, JBHT stock could use some market power, or maybe even lower energy prices.

Energy and commodity stocks continue to be strong. There are a few of them in or near the purchasing areas, such as Petroleum Marathon (MPC), Civitas (CIVI), seashells (shill) And the a horse (a horse), but many other sectors have either extended or fallen behind in recent months.
