By the time you read this, NASA will have canceled its scheduled launch to send the first humans in space in nearly a decade.

Regardless, SpaceX’s Crew Dragon Capsule with Bob Benhken and Doug Hurley (astronauts) aboard, represents a great era for the USA.

Hopefully, with a successful flight planned for May 30th, we are one step further away from the COVID-19 blues.

In the stock market, we saw quite a few launches despite the weather.

The recent rotation into small caps or the Russell 2000 IWM and Vanguard Small-Cap Growth Index VBK continues.

The S&P 500 cleared back over the 200-DMA.

With so many instruments floating in space, will there be a hard landing?

While IWM, SPY, the Dow rallied, so did Gold GLD, after a 3-4-day correction.

However, in the world of commodities, not everyone joined the party.

Oil, even after the Saudi’s announced they would keep production low, closed red.

Nevertheless, the decline did not violate recent support.

Soft commodities also closed in the red, along with agriculturals. (Except for soybeans.)

Food, even with elevated prices in the stores, struggles near its historical lows.

Looking at another commodity, Uranium looks like it is about to trade much higher (URA).

The divergence remains.

Oil is a factor for commodities and as a measure for consumer demand as the world opens up again.

The softs and ags may have bottomed, but nothing much to report there yet.

Small caps, retail and transportation or the “inside” of the market tells us investors think the economy will return.

And, TSLA along with Virgin Galactic (SPCE) are getting ready to rule outer space!

What are Gold and Uranium saying?

This rally is as fragile as how the earth looks from space.
