A group of stocks are about to form a chart pattern that suggests investors are bearish: the worrisome death cross. A death cross encompasses a price chart pattern that emerges when a stock's 50-day moving average slips below its 200-day moving average. Moreover, a death cross is also touted as a predictor of a forthcoming bear market pattern. CNBC used data from FactSet to screen for stocks that are approaching a death cross, and found four names including fast-food giant McDonald's and athleisure brand Lululemon . McDonald's is once again flashing a death cross signal.

☆ GDP report points to dreaded stagflation, but these stocks can still work in this environment
▼ + stars: | 2023-04-27 | by ( John Melloy | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

Investors may want to position themselves for a stagflationary environment after Thursday's gross domestic product reading for the first quarter showed lackluster economic growth and high inflation. First-quarter growth came in at a 1.1% annualized pace, much slower than the 2% growth expected by economists polled by Dow Jones. Stagflation is an economic condition the U.S. experienced in the 1970s, characterized by slow economic growth and elevated inflation, along with high unemployment. The one ingredient missing today is the high unemployment, but mounting layoffs are raising fears that will change soon too. But it's a reasonable bet that certain stocks with pricing power and resilient revenue sources could outperform in this kind of environment.

[1/2] The logo of technology company Nvidia is seen at its headquarters in Santa Clara, California February 11, 2015. Its CEO Jensen Huang said use of its chips to power AI had "gone through the roof in the last 60 days." The Federal Reserve at least seems keen on the higher-for-longer message that's shaken world stock and bond markets this week. And as the minutes pre-date red-hot jobs and retail data for January, the message from Fed officials is probably even sterner now. A Reuters poll of equity analysts showed global stock markets are expected to correct in the next three months.
