Tesla’s has held up relatively well around the $300 level over the past couple of days, and that should be viewed as encouraging for the bulls. Additionally, Tesla’s chart below shows volume has been declining, which also suggest the massive amounts of turnover we saw immediately after the quarterly results are settling down as well.

The chart could point to a stock that rises over the near-term as well, with a gap that needs to be filled around the $325 region.

Biotech

Biotech shares have continued to struggle, but signs are emerging that a bottom could be near. The chart shows that the IBB ETF has found some support around the $309 level, thus far.

When taking a closer look at some of the significant components, we can see shares of Biogen continue to hold the $308 level.

Meanwhile, shares of Amgen are also attempting to put in a bottom and appear to be moving towards the stocks longer-term uptrend.

With Gilead trying to do the same.

Overall these three stocks have a tremendous amount of importance for the sector and the ETF, so where they go, the rest will follow. If they are bottoming or close to bottoming it could suggest a much-needed rebound is on the way.

Consumer Discretionary Stocks

The consumer discretionary ETF XLY Is sitting at a significant resistance level at the moment. Should the price for the discretionary ETF be able to rise above the $92.75 level, it would suggest a breakout. Given the trend, a breakout seems likely, one that is undoubtedly worth watching and waiting to develop.

Amazon is the most critical component in the discretionary ETF XLY with nearly 17.25 percent weighting, where Amazon goes the rest of the sector follows. The chart of Amazon, concerns me a great deal though, with that huge gap in the chart from its earnings results date, a period of sideways consolidation would be welcomed.

Financials

Financials have been getting hammered of late, with the XLF fall from roughly $26.80 to $26 over the past few days. Overall the ETF has room to fall to nearly $25.50.
