The Dow Jones Industrial Average reversed lower Tuesday morning, looking to rebound from Monday's stock market dive. Treasury yields jumped, while U.S. oil prices advanced above $125 a barrel after Bloomberg reported that President Joe Biden is set to ban U.S. imports of Russian energy. Russia's ongoing Ukraine invasion, along with the West's response, remains the key focal point in the stock market today.
XBefore Tuesday's open, Dick's Sporting Goods (DKS) and Olaplex (OLPX) reported their quarterly results. DKS shares advanced 3%, while OLPX stock jumped about 5% after strong results.
Among the Dow Jones leaders, Apple (AAPL) lost 0.2% and Microsoft (MSFT) fell 0.2% in today's stock market. UnitedHealth (UNH), a Dow Jones stock to watch, finished Monday within striking distance of a new buy point.
Electric-vehicle leader Tesla (TSLA) slid 1.5% early Tuesday, threatening to add to Monday's skid.
Amid the volatile, headline-driven market, Anthem (ANTM), Costco (COST), CSX (CSX) and Union Pacific (UNP) are among Tuesday's top stocks to watch. Keep in mind that current stock market conditions should keep investors in cash and on the sidelines.
Microsoft and Tesla are IBD Leaderboard stocks. Costco and CSX were featured in this week's Stocks Near A Buy Zone column.
Dow Jones Today: Russian Invasion, Oil Prices Surge
After Tuesday's market open, the Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 0.3% and the S&P 500 dropped 0.4%. The Nasdaq fell 0.55% in morning trade.
Among exchange-traded funds, the Nasdaq 100 tracker Invesco QQQ Trust (QQQ) dipped 0.1%, and the SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY) moved up 0.1% after Tuesday's open.
The 10-year Treasury yield jumped to 1.85% Tuesday morning, as bonds sold down following plans announced by the European Union to launch a "potentially massive" joint bond issue in order to finance energy and defense spending in the face of Russia's assault on Ukraine. The 10-year note closed at 1.75% on Monday.
Meanwhile, U.S. oil prices climbed more than 5% Tuesday, as West Texas Intermediate crude topped $125 a barrel. WTI briefly surged above $130 a barrel on Monday to hit its highest level since September 2008, per Dow Jones Market Data.
Russia continued to bombard Ukrainian cities, after low-level negotiators from both sides met for a third round of talks on Monday. Negotiators agreed on some plans to help people trapped in the fighting, but there was little other progress regarding a cease-fire. Russia's top diplomat is scheduled to meet with his Ukrainian counterpart in Turkey on Thursday.
Stock Market Rally Attempt
The stock market posted more disappointing action Monday, as the major stock indexes ended with heavy losses. Despite Monday's losses, all three major stock indexes remain above their Feb. 24 intraday lows, which means Tuesday will be Day 9 of the ongoing rally attempt.
Monday's The Big Picture commented, "Once indexes undercut the Feb. 24 lows, the rally attempt is done. To be frank, that technical signal seems to be just a formality. The stock market shows no appetite for risk and the main pain points — Russia, inflation, rate hikes — show no sign of diminishing."
