🦍 Gorilla Commentary

The GorillaTrades portfolio had another strong session today. Among the GorillaPicks that fell, most dipped just a fraction of 1%, and only one dropped more than 1%-2%; unconfirmed Canadian Pacific Kansas City (CP) lost 2.1%, and LandBridge (LB) lost 3.3%, finally pulling back a bit after two consecutive powerful sessions. Conversely, MetLife (MET) rose 2%, while Visa (V) and Mastercard (MA) gained 3.1% and 3.3%, respectively.

Thus, 18 of the 19 confirmed GorillaPicks in the GorillaTrades portfolio now hold unrealized gains, including seven with double-digit gains. Only Customers Bancorp (CUBI) holds just a 2.5% unrealized loss. Atmos Energy (ATO) leads the portfolio with a 41% gain. In addition, 15 different GorillaPicks have achieved their first targets.

Price Action

Bearish 0-100 Bullish

Price action deteriorated slightly today following Friday's improvements, but bulls remain in full control of the market, with the long-term advancing trends being firmly intact.

The large-cap benchmarks and the Russell 2000 are still neutral, according to the most reliable momentum indicators, and stocks have plenty of room to rally following last week’s broad-based dip.

Index G/L Current Level
Dow +149 53,417
Nasdaq -200 25,980
S&P -22 7,653
Russell 2000 -23 2,995
Year-to-date 50-day MA 200-day MA
+11.1% 52,641 49,586
+11.8% 25,954 24,255
+11.8% 7,546 7,100
+20.7% 2,987 2,720

Decliners outnumbered advancing issues by a 5-to-4 ratio on the NYSE today (compared to the GT portfolio, where winners outnumbered losers), with 46 stocks hitting new 52-week highs and 26 stocks hitting fresh 52-week lows, while volume was quite light.

-The major indices finished mixed following a hectic but relatively quiet day of trading, with only the tech sector seeing elevated trading activity once again

·Chip stocks weighed heavily on the Nasdaq and the S&P 500, with the tech benchmark dipping below its 50-day moving average and hitting a fresh pullback low, but financials and inflation-sensitive stocks saved the day for the Dow

·Crude oil pulled back below the $85 per barrel level amid rumors of renewed talks between the U.S. and Iran, even though Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent announced “Operation Outcast”, a plan to choke Iran’s economy

·The U.S. and Canada are on the path for a full-blown tariff war following last week’s failed trade negotiations, with the two sides threatening to slap steep levies on a slew of products

·Treasury yields lost ground, with long-dated rates dropping sharply, but bond markets remained volatile ahead of this week’s Fed Symposium in Jackson Hole

The main sectors diverged substantially throughout today's session, with the major indices’ mixed performance reflecting the unusually deep divide between the strongest and weakest sectors. The defensive consumer staples sector showed the most promise, gaining over 1.5%, with communication services, financials, and the rate-sensitive real estate and utilities sectors also closing the day in the green. Materials, healthcare, and the tech-heavy consumer discretionary sector finished flat, with energy and industrials losing roughly 1%, while the worst-performing sector, tech, gave back nearly 2%.

Traders said that the market remained surprisingly stable despite today’s worrisome headlines. As one trader explained, “Even though the tech sector's continued weakness remains a concern for bulls, the market’s overall resilience to negative catalysts is still apparent, with the Dow's relative strength, in particular, boosting sentiment on the Street today.”
