A Second V-Spike Reversal Day and Big Stock Scan GDP Fed April 29

US GDP, a Federal Reserve (FOMC) announcement, a Dollar breakdown, Twitter’s (TWTR) breakdown, a V-Spike Intervention Reversal (like yesterday), and more.

I can’t imagine you being bored with the market, but if you were, price once again threw us an exciting curve ball in the form of a second V-Spike Intraday Reversal amidst all the headlines mentioned above.

Let’s dive inside action and note key levels and the trending stocks of the bullish day:

Tuesday and now Wednesday gave us V-Spike Intraday Reversals in the morning followed by a bullish surge.

The key pivot or focal point is the easy-reference 2,100 S&P 500 level which remains an important pivot.

Stocks still trade within a short-term range between the 2,100 and 2,115 level as buyers will not let this market go lower.

They’ve stepped in to intervene each time and thus we give the benefit of the doubt to them as they continue to boost the market against the short-sellers.

Let’s see what our Breadth Chart reveals about current market strength (or weakness):

Today’s strongest sector is Energy, boosted by the breakdown in the US Dollar Index (see this morning’s post on the Dollar and Euro).

All other sectors are weak and under the 50% Breadth level which doesn’t bode well for the market in terms of bullish money flow (you would expect to see stronger performance on today’s bullish intervention).

It’s generally a good sign that today’s weakest sectors are all three defensive names.

Be sure to reference the earlier post “What Sector Rotation is Saying so far in 2015” for background and an updated Sector Performance grid on a larger scale.

We have potential bullish trend continuation plays in the following stocks from our scan:

Salesforce.com (CRM), Mondelez (MDLZ), GoPro (GPRO), and Starwood Hotels (HOT)

Bearish downtrending candidates include the following stocks from our “weakness” scan:

Lumber Liquidators (LL), Brunswick (BC), Anheuser-Busch (BUD), and WYNN Resorts
