ASML Downgrade Pressures Tech But DG’s Pop Could Spark a Move in Consumer Staples

by | Jun 3, 2025

>>>Don’t miss out an on action- and information-packed session in today’s VIP Trade Room — I’ll see everyone at noon ET!<<<

Stocks are mostly flat but well off the overnight lows as we head toward the open, with tech leading.

We have Factory Orders and JOLTS reports at 10 a.m. ET, Dollar General (DG) earnings, OECD’s lowered global outlook, tariffs, nuclear energy, Fed speakers and an ASML Holding NV (ASML) downgrade that will all serve as today’s market- and/or sector-moving catalysts.

DG is up over 9% and could move Consumer Staples and supermarket stocks — Dollar Tree (DLTR) is on deck to report tomorrow.

Additionally, the U.S. dollar is still below par and the eight-day exponential moving average. The bond market (TLT) is right at the eight-day exponential moving average.

Gold, however, is above its eight-day EMA and I would continue holding any current positions until it gets around $3,466 an ounce. I think once we get up there, we’ll make a triple top and likely come back down some.

Bitcoin is consolidating and I believe it’s likely to come back for another leg higher. Then the question will be what happens once we get back near the recent highs.

Crude oil is rising because of what’s happening with the Ukraine-Russia war.

I’ll cover all that, my daily hitlist of longs and shorts and more in this morning’s “Premarket Must Watch” video!
