The S&P 500 jumped 2.2% while the Nasdaq composite vaulted 2.7% as a pattern of big price moves continued to characterize stock trading<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Nasdaq’s decline from its November peak has exceeded 20%, what Wall Street considers a bear market. Right now, the index is 19% below its prior high.<\/p>\n

The Nasdaq and S&P 500 came close to undercutting their Feb. 24 lows, but are making a stand around that level.\u00a0A drop below it would effectively kill a rally attempt, although the stock market volatility makes market signals difficult to read.<\/p>\n

The Dow Jones Industrial Average climbed 1.9%. The small-cap Russell 2000 rose 2.3%. Volume fell on the NYSE and Nasdaq compared with the same time on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

U.S. crude slid 4.5% to $118.14 a barrel early Wednesday. It started the week trading above $130 a barrel as the U.S. moved to ban Russian imports of crude oil.\u00a0It is one of the heaviest sanctions against Russia for its invasion of Ukraine. It’s also helping send gasoline prices to record highs in the U.S.<\/p>\n

Airline stocks, one of the most affected by higher fuel prices, rebounded. IBD’s airlines industry group rose nearly 5%. The travel booking group jumped 7.7%, which is so far the day’s best industry performance. The lodging industry group rose 4%.<\/p>\n

Energy Select Sector SPDR (XLE<\/a>), which had rallied nearly 10% this month alone, fell 2.5%, and is set to end an eight-day win streak.<\/p>\n

Other commodity stocks affected by anti-Russia sanctions also eased. Teucrium Corn ETF (CORN<\/a>) fell 0.7%. Teucrium Wheat Fund (WEAT<\/a>) dropped 5%.<\/p>\n

In the Ukraine war, Russian forces continued to push toward Kyiv and other major cities<\/a>, while Ukrainians fought off attacks and tried to evacuate civilians.<\/p>\n

Cryptocurrency Stocks Climb<\/h2>\n

Cryptocurrency stocks rallied after President Joe Biden ordered federal regulators to review the risks of the crypto market<\/a>\u00a0to consumers, investors and the economy. The review also will examine the creation of a U.S. digital currency.<\/p>\n

Investors saw positives in Biden’s executive order, despite the threat of regulation.<\/p>\n

ProShares Bitcoin Strategy (BITO<\/a>), an ETF that tracks Bitcoin futures, jumped nearly 10%. Coinbase Global<\/strong> (COIN<\/a>), the largest U.S. cryptocurrency exchange<\/a>, rose 8.6%. Grayscale Ethereum Trust (ETHE<\/a>) was up 7.4%. Riot Blockchain<\/strong> (RIOT<\/a>) jumped more than 10%.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin climbed above $42,000, according to Coindesk quotes<\/a>.\u00a0Cryptocurrency shares have been slumping since December.<\/p>\n

IBD 50 Keeps Up With Stock Market<\/h2>\n

The Innovator IBD 50 ETF (FFTY<\/a>) rose 1.4%.<\/p>\n

Zim Integrated Shipping<\/strong> (ZIM<\/a>) led with a 7% leap after the company reported a 366% surge in earnings for the fourth quarter. Sales rose 155% to $3.47 billion. Other shippers such as Matson<\/strong> (MATX<\/a>) and Global Ship Lease<\/strong> (GSL<\/a>) rose more than 2%.<\/p>\n

Boston Properties<\/strong> (BXP<\/a>), the largest publicly traded office building real estate investment trust, rose above the 123.77 buy point of a cup-with-handle base<\/a>. But volume was below average.<\/p>\n

CF Industries<\/strong> (CF<\/a>) was down 7.5% in heavy trading. The fertilizer stock is cooling off after rising more than 30% in two weeks.<\/p>\n

Among major stocks, Netflix<\/strong> (NFLX<\/a>) climbed 3% in heavy trading after Wedbush upgraded the video streaming stock to neutral from underperform. Netflix shares remain deep in a correction.<\/p>\n

Alphabet<\/strong> (GOOGL<\/a>) rose 2.4% and has now defended the 2,500 price level three times since January.<\/p>\n
