Market environment

The bullish vs. bearish setup is 661 to 25 from the screenshot of my stock screener below.

There is a clear rotation from Nasdaq 100 and the S&P 500 into the Russell 2000 (& the Dow Jones) since 11 Jul 2024 (Thursday).

This is further confirmed by the significant improvement in both the number of the bullish setups and market breadth.

A pullback or consolidation could provide a great opportunity for re-accumulation. Now again is the best time to identify the next batch of leaders (like KRE)

Gold falls below $5,300 as stronger USD counter Middle East woes

Gold attracts some intraday selling and falls below $5,300 on Tuesday. The US Dollar climbs to a fresh high since January 20 and turns out to be a key factor exerting downward pressure on the commodity. However, concerns about a broader regional conflict in the Middle East continue to weigh on investors' sentiment and underpin demand for the traditional safe-haven bullion.

Stellar risks deeper losses as derivatives metrics turn negative

Stellar is trading red below $0.16 at the time of writing on Tuesday, after a slight recovery the previous day. Weakening derivatives data caps the recovery, while an unfavorable technical outlook projects a deeper correction for the XLM token in the upcoming days.
