Daily Market Breadth Analysis – June 12, 2025 (After Market Close)
On June 12, we saw 54.5% of stocks advancing, versus 42.8% declining, a mild positive close, but certainly not the kind of breath-taking participation we saw earlier this week. Compare that to June 10, where 64.9% of stocks advanced, or the 71.6% spike from June 6.
We’re still in positive territory, but the upside momentum is clearly flattening out.
That cooling shows in the visual trend too: advancers are fading off highs, and decliners are creeping back up. This looks like hesitation, not reversal (yet), but a market that’s pausing.
Breadth Through Moving Averages: Holding Up, For Now
One thing that continues to stand out, and keeps me from flipping bearish prematurely, is how strong the SMA(50)+ and SMA(200)+ indicators remain.
-
78.9% of stocks are still trading above their 50-day moving average.
-
45.2% are above their 200-day, a significant uptick from 39.5% just a week ago (June 5).
That’s a structurally healthy market, breadth is holding even with a bit of daily chop.
Medium-Term Trend: Still Constructive
The monthly advancers number - tracking the % of stocks that are up over the past month - sits at 67.2%, slightly higher than the day before. While it’s not quite the 72% peak we saw on June 9, it confirms the ongoing strength of the broader move.
The same goes for decliners: 32.3% is perfectly manageable, and not rising significantly.
What’s Changed Since Yesterday?
In yesterday’s review (June 11), I flagged the drop in advancing stocks (42.1%) as a potential early warning sign. Today’s rebound back above the 50% line is encouraging, but the lack of real follow-through and the slight uptick in decliners mean we’re not out of the woods.
In short: bulls still have the ball, but they’re no longer sprinting. They’re looking over their shoulder.
Final Take
This market has legs, but it’s jogging now, not sprinting. The momentum breadth is cooling just enough to warrant caution. But unless we see a sharp drop in stocks above their 50- and 200-day moving averages, I’m not shifting bias yet.
I'll keep watching the advancers/decliners split, but more importantly, I want to see whether the longer-term breadth (SMA and monthly trend) starts to deteriorate. That will be my trigger to shift gears.
Stay sharp,
