Murphy Oil (MUR) rose above the 43.30 buy point of an ascending base. Volume was heavy and the relative strength line is also at new highs — two bullish signs for the breakout. The company is in the top-ranked international oil and gas exploration and production industry.

Oil stocks Occidental Petroleum (OXY), Comstock Resources (CRK) and ConocoPhillips (COP) led the IBD 50 with gains of more than 3%.

Gold mining stocks also jumped Monday as the price of gold shot up. The S&P Gold Shares ETF (GLD) gained 0.8%. Barrick Gold (GOLD) gained 1.5% and was approaching its 26.17 buy point of a flat base.

President Biden announced on Friday that he would resume selling leases to drill for oil and gas on federal lands starting today, reversing an earlier campaign pledge.

Marriott International (MAR) jumped 1.5% after the stock joined the IBD 50. The stock is in a buy range after breaking through its 179.40 buy point of a cup-with-handle pattern.

The Innovator IBD 50 ETF (FFTY) fell 0.6% at midday. Health care stocks were the biggest drag on the IBD 50.

Financials Mixed As Earnings Reports Come In

Bank of America (BAC) rose 3% after the company’s first-quarter earnings and revenue topped analysts’ consensus estimates. The bank reported EPS of 80 cents and revenue of $23.2 billion. Ahead of the report, BofA stock had sunk to the lowest level since last July.

Bank of New York Mellon (BK) fell more than 3% after earnings also exceeded estimates.

After the close, J.B. Hunt (JBHT) will report first-quarter results. The trucking company dipped 1.5% Monday.

More than 150 companies are reporting quarterly results this week, including Tesla (TSLA), Lockheed Martin (LMT) and more financial institutions.

Tech stocks posted narrow gains.

Tesla gained 1.3% as it forms a cup-with-handle base with a 1,152.97 buy point. Tesla — which reports earnings Wednesday after the close — plans to reopen its Shanghai plant today, reports said. The plant had been idled since March 28 due to a Covid lockdown. It’s not clear when production will resume.

Google parent Alphabet (GOOGL) and Microsoft (MSFT) also posted narrow gains.
