Mark Newton sees resilient stocks, not a smooth ride

Fundstrat’s Mark Newton: Markets remain resilient, earnings have started to kick off in good shapeFundstrat’s Mark Newton: Markets remain resilient, earnings have started to kick off in good shape

More stocks are participating. For Fundstrat's Mark Newton, that is a reason to take the market's resilience seriously, even with plenty of unsettling headlines still arriving.

On CNBC's Closing Bell, the technical strategy head says the share of stocks trading above their short-term moving average has more than doubled. In plain English, the improvement is spreading across more of the market, rather than resting on a narrow group of stocks.

Newton pairs that widening strength with an encouraging start to corporate earnings. Elevated bond yields, expensive crude oil and inflation have not disappeared; his point is that stocks are stabilizing despite them.

Then the interview gets a live test of that argument. The host brings in a Reuters report that the State Department is preparing to order some personnel to leave embassies across the Gulf. Newton responds by explaining his technical approach: look past near-term external events and concentrate on market behavior and earnings.

The short interview drew about 28,000 views in eight hours, already far beyond CNBC Television's usual full-day audience for Shorts.

But Newton's optimism is not a promise of an easy stretch. "I think it's going to be a choppy time until we get past the midterms," he says, while watching for bond yields and crude prices to crest.
