TOL shares rose modestly in late trade after the luxury homebuilder topped earnings forecasts and delivered solid fiscal Q1 and 2024 guidance. Dole Brothers stock closed at 87.21. This is a slight extension from the 82.39 cup-with-handle buy point, but the 87.12 shelf entry range.

SentinelOne stock rose in extended trading, marking a breakout after the cybersecurity company reported a smaller-than-expected loss and 42% revenue growth. SentinelOne’s 4th Quarter Earnings Rise Shares fell 1.2% to 20 on Tuesday, but are running just to the right of a 43% deep base with a 21.95 buy point.

On Tuesday, weekly EV registration data showed Tesla’s China sales continued to rise, likely helped by the updated Model 3. The EV giant has recently made some offers in China, but they are relatively modest considering the intense EV price war there. On the other hand, weak German sales may have cooled interest in Tesla stock Tuesday afternoon.

Nvidia stock rose 2.3% to 465.66 on Tuesday, moving above its 50-day line after a three-day slide. The 476.09 double-bottom buy point is still valid, but NVDA stock must first break above its 21-day line. It is possible that Nvidia will create a new integration. Volume was below average after high volume low days in the past two weeks.

Wednesday’s AMD AI event is important for Nvidia, which has so far dominated the AI ​​chip business.

MSFT shares rose 0.9% to 372.52. On Monday, shares fell short of a 366.78 cup-base buy point, but managed to close above that entry and 21-day line.

Time the market with IBD’s ETF Market Strategy


What to do now

The stock market rally still looks healthy. Despite Tuesday, market breadth improved.

Some stocks are flashing buy signals, but investors may want to simply stand by while major indexes and some leading stocks consolidate. If they haven’t already, investors may want to take some profits in extended stocks after big November gains. But that depends on exposure and concentration levels and your personal investment style.

Keep working on watch lists. Be sure to screen well beyond growth stocks as many sectors have advanced.

Read the big picture every day to stay in tune with market direction and leading stocks and sectors.
