Internal momentum shifts for the 1st time in 4 months

Jason Goepfert
2020-09-23
For the first time since May, there were more 52-week lows on the NYSE than 52-week highs.

Ever since May 14, more securities on the NYSE have been hitting 52-week highs than 52-week lows. For the first time since then, more than 4 months, that changed with more lows than highs on Monday.

Below, we can see that when the net percentage of stocks at a 52-week low is greater than those at a 52-week high, the S&P 500 returned an annualized +3.9% versus +10.8% when this figure was positive.

Monday's session ended a streak of nearly 90 days with a positive net number of 52-week extremes. That stopped one of the longer streaks in more than 50 years. 

Streak of NYSE 52-week highs greater than lows

After other long streaks ended since 1965, the S&P struggled a bit short-term, with higher risk than reward, but showed good medium-term returns.

Risk Disclosure: Futures and forex trading contains substantial risk and is not for every investor. An investor could potentially lose all or more than the initial investment. Risk capital is money that can be lost without jeopardizing ones’ financial security or life style. Only risk capital should be used for trading and only those with sufficient risk capital should consider trading. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.

Hypothetical Performance Disclosure: Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown; in fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk of actual trading. for example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all which can adversely affect trading results.
