Elon Musk has failed at Twitter
Meanwhile, Delaware Chancery Court Judge Allowed speedy trial of Twitter (TWTR) lawsuit against Tesla CEO Elon Musk over his attempt to stop the Twitter acquisition. The trial will begin in October. Musk sought a delay to 2023, which would have put pressure on Twitter to settle. While the ruling is not on the merits of the case, it is a positive sign for Twitter. Musk could face a hefty penalty — a breakup fee of more than $1 billion — or close the $44 billion, $54.20-a-share deal. That could force Musk to sell more TSLA stock.
Twitter stock rose 2.8% to 39.49, moving above its 50-day line for the first time in two months.

Market rally analysis
After declining from key resistance on Monday, the market rally rebounded strongly on Tuesday from Monday’s highs. The Nasdaq breached its 50-day line and Monday’s intraday high, hitting its late-June and early-July highs. Same with the small-cap Russell 2000.
The Dow Jones and the S&P 500 rose above their 50-day lines and neared their late-June highs.
Can the market rally now decisively clear these resistance levels? Doing so would indicate that the market is at least in a tradable rally. Remember that the next big hurdle is the early June high.
Market breadth remained strong on Tuesday, but many new stocks did not exit or show strong action. It was a day for bottom fishing, with hard-hit stocks rallying but still a long way below old highs.
However, it was nice to see chip (SMH) and software (IGV) ETFs returning above their 50-day lines. Like major indices, chip and software stocks have briefly peaked above their 50-day lines at times this year.

Time the market with IBD’s ETF Market Strategy
What to do now
It’s a tricky time. Major indices are starting to break resistance. If that continues, investors may feel more confident about incremental exposure. However, earnings season heats up with the Federal Reserve meeting next week.
Those news events can push the market higher or lower the indices sharply – or whipsaw back and forth. In either case individual stocks may fall in earnings.
So if you add exposure, be prepared to back off quickly.
Be sure to work on your watch lists and spend extra time on prime candidates for new entries.
According to Big picture Each day should be in sync with the direction of the market and the leading stocks and sectors.
