Wednesday's Big Picture column commented, "The stock market didn't like it when the 10-year yield jumped to 1.76% in late March. Now, the stock market is worried about plunging yields and what that means about the economic recovery. For now, the bond market is saying it's not worried about persistent inflation. Instead, it's worrying about an economic recovery that may not be as robust as expected."

According to IBD Stock Checkup, AMZN stock shows a solid 92 out of a perfect 99 IBD Composite Rating. The IBD Composite Rating easily identifies stocks with a blend of strong fundamental and technical characteristics.
Wednesday's IBD Stock Of The Day, Burlington Stores, remains near a 339.38 buy point in a cup base. Shares rose 0.2% Thursday midday and are about 5% away from the new entry.
New IBD Leaderboard stock Shopify is trying to break out past a 1,552.33 buy point in a cup with handle, according to IBD MarketSmith chart analysis. Shares dropped over 3% Thursday midday following Wednesday's downside reversal.
Per Leaderboard analysis, "The handle formed after the stock formed a long cup-base pattern over the space of 18 weeks. The relative strength line has been moving sideways during the handle consolidation. An upward spike will be constructive going forward."
