PDD:NAS is now under Algo Engine buy conditions. The company is China’s largest agriculture and interactive commerce platform.

The recovery in the U.S. labor market appeared to stagnate for a second month, as non-farm payrolls increased by just 49,000 and December’s figure was downwardly revised to show 227,000 job losses, strengthening the case for further stimulus.

A break below 3,856 in the S&P500 will be negative for the momentum traders.

AMZN:NAS is under Algo Engine buy conditions and is up 88% since being added to our US S&P100 model portfolio on 1/8/2019.

For the December quarter, AMZN posted record revenues of more than $125B, up a whopping 44% on the same time last year. AWS, (cloud services), had net sales of $12.7B with an operating income of $3.6B, more than half of the firm’s overall operating income.

NYS:FB is under Algo Engine sell conditions.

We’re seeing falls in daily usage but global growth in overall user numbers continues to increase.

The company warned about the impact from Apple’s privacy changes and called the latter a “significant competitor.” Recent trends suggest slower growth in its advertising business and we may see lower revenue numbers in the second half of 2021.

We will be watching Google/Alphabet numbers when they report later this week.
