Dow Jones futures rose modestly late Monday, along with S&P 500 futures and Nasdaq futures. The new stock market rally attempt had another solid session, with the Nasdaq reclaiming key support and leading stocks showing bullish action on Monday.
APL) extended Friday's big gain while Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) and PayPal (PYPL) retook their 50-day moving averages. Amazon.com (AMZN) raced up to just below that key level.
Top Stocks In Buy Zones
Target stock and Seattle Genetics (SGEN) broke out Monday. Adobe (ADBE) and Marvell Technology (MRVL) continued rebounding from their 50-day lines, moving higher within or back into prior buy zones. Nvidia (NVDA), Veeva Systems (VEEV) and Entegris (ENTG) were among those offering early entries.
Stock Market Rally Still Missing This
Overall, Monday's stock market gains were broad-based, with homebuilders, software, chip, solar, e-commerce and transportation groups showing strength, as well as laggard airlines and financials.
The one thing that was missing Monday, once again, was volume. Nasdaq volume was modestly below Friday's level. A follow-through day must have strong price gain on one or more of the major indexes but also higher volume than in the prior session.
NYSE volume did rise slightly on Monday while the Dow Jones and S&P 500 both had strong price gains. But Monday was only day three of a stock market rally attempt for the Dow Jones and S&P 500 because they undercut their recent lows on Thursday morning before rebounding.
Adobe and Nvidia stock are on IBD Leaderboard. Target (TGT) and Veeva stock are on SwingTrader. Adobe and PayPal stock are on IBD Long-Term Leaders, with Veeva on the watchlist. Nvidia, AMD, Veeva, Adobe, PayPal, Entegris and Marvell stock are on the IBD 50.

Stock Market Correction Not Finished
<iframe class="ql-video" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="true" src="https://research.investors.com..."></iframe>When IBD made its market correction call on Wednesday, Sept. 23, it was a judgment call. But if IBD had left the direction at "uptrend under pressure," in all likelihood there wouldn't be a return to a "confirmed uptrend" and a green light to buy until the Nasdaq was at least back above its 50-day line and perhaps its Sept. 10 intraday high.
So here we are. The Nasdaq is back above its 50-day moving average and getting close to its Sept 10 peak. That's a good first step. A strong price gain with higher volume would confirm the new stock market rally but also possible clear further resistance. More leading stocks that are setting up would clear various buy points or close in on breakouts.
Then again, the stock market could simply resume selling. This is still a stock market correction. A retreat from the 50-day line would not be a big surprise. In that case, the latest breakouts and buying opportunities would likely struggle or fail.
Starting Tuesday, the Dow Jones, S&P 500 and Nasdaq all could mark a follow-through day, though it's always good to see the Nasdaq take part. In the big coronavirus stock market rally, the S&P 500 index staged a FTD day on April 2, with the Nasdaq delivering a more-convincing FTD on April 6.
