    Early Morning Vibes: 4 Top Trending Stocks To Watch Right Now

    US stock exchanges fell on Monday in line with the overall decline in risk sentiment in global markets, according to trading data.

    The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) fell by 0.33% to 31391.89 points, the NASDAQ high-tech index – by 0.86% to 13756.78 points, the broad market S&P 500 index – by 0.47%, up to 3887.8 points.

    Monday traders are risk averse. Their attention turned to the possible consequences of the economic recovery after the pandemic. In particular, investors are concerned that the US $1.9 trillion stimulus package will lead to increased economic activity and a surge in inflation, which in turn could prompt the Fed to tighten monetary policy.

    At preliminary trades, the pressure on the share price was also exerted by the growth of the yield on US government bonds to the maximum since February last year, which contributed to the strengthening of the dollar. However, the yield on government bonds has already moved to a correctional decline. The dollar is also slightly declining.

    Meanwhile, the shares of the American concern Boeing are losing 1.8% after the company recommended to suspend flights of 777 liners with a Pratt & Whitney PW4000-112 engine amid an emergency with an engine in Colorado.

    Early Morning Vibes: Check Out These 4 hot Crypto Stocks Right Now

    On February 16, American stock exchanges finished trading in different directions. The S&P 500 index dropped by a symbolic 0.06%, to 3933 points, the NASDAQ lost 0.34%, and the Dow Jones added 0.20%. The news background remained calm, investors were waiting for President Biden’s speech on fiscal stimulus. The finance sector continued to rally and gained 1.77% on the back of higher Treasury yields. The energy sector rose 2.26% on the back of rising oil prices.

    Company news

    BorgWarner (BWA: + 4.3%) acquires 59% of German company Akasol to expand its vehicle electrification capabilities.

    Palantir Technologies (PLTR: -12.8%) unexpectedly posted negative EPS, although revenue exceeded consensus expectations.

    Chemicals manufacturer Ecolab (ECL: -4.1%) was below forecast. Management noted the negative effect of the COVID-19 factor.

    Today, global stock markets are showing mixed dynamics. Joe Biden made a speech on the fiscal stimulus package in Wisconsin the day before. The US President expressed his hope for a return to normal life by next Christmas and noted that by the end of July, the vaccines produced will be enough to vaccinate all Americans. The speech of the head of state did not contain new information on incentives, but he stressed the need to adopt a large anti-crisis program.

    Weather disasters in the form of extremely low temperatures, strong winds and snowfalls that have covered the southern and central states negatively affect production processes. For example, many automakers were forced to suspend the work of assembly lines. Such natural phenomena are of a short-term nature; therefore, they usually do not have a noticeable effect on the stock market. However, in the current environment, when the S&P 500 index is at a historic high, many positive factors have been taken into account in quotes, and a sharp rise in Treasury yields reduces the attractiveness of shares, any negative event can cause a desire to fix some positions. In this regard, a short-term correction looks more and more likely.

    The Freedom Finance Sentiment Index climbed to 78 out of 100. The index reflects market participants’ hope for a global economic recovery in 2021. Worries about the negative impact of the coronavirus pandemic are eased by the prospect of mass vaccinations.

    Technical picture

    Technically, the S&P 500 is still in an uptrend. Resistance near its upper boundary is still a significant obstacle. A breakthrough of resistance at 3950 points will mean an acceleration of the upward movement. On the eve of buyers tested this resistance, but could not overcome it. The RSI indicator is already close to the overbought level, so the upside potential in the short term is limited.
