Breadth Turns Positive as Indices Get a Break From Pressure
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
For the week, the Dow added 0.6%, the S&P 500 was up 1.4% and the NASDAQ outperformed with a 2.3% gain. Stocks rallied on Friday. The Dow was up 210 points to 16093. The S&P 500 added 37 points to 1906. The NASDAQ advanced 119 points at 4591. Volume totals were lighter than the prior session totals on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange, again revealing lackluster buying demand coming from the institutional crowd. Breadth was positive as advancers led decliners by more than an 8-1 margin on the NYSE and by more than a 4-1 margin on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 5 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that made new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page. The Featured Stocks Page has been trimmed considerably as weakness weighed on prior leaders and the broader market. New 52-week lows contracted but still easily outnumbered new 52-week highs on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange.Charts used courtesy of www.stockcharts.com
PICTURED: The S&P 500 Index rebounded after a brief slump below prior lows with volume-driven losses. At the intra-day low on Wednesday's session the benchmark index traded -15.1% off its record high hit in May 2015. The fact-based investment system always prompts investors to reduce exposure by selling faltering stocks in weak markets. New leadership (stocks hitting new highs) has become elusive as the major averages (M criteria) resumed their previously noted "correction" and distributional pressure from the institutional crowd brought widespread damage to stocks. This is a good time to keep a watchlist of the strongest stocks, meanwhile, preserving cash and reducing risk until a new confirmed rally is finally noted. The major averages continued Thursday’s rebound after dovish comments from the European Central Bank and surging crude oil prices. Japan’s Nikkei spiked 5.9% overnight while the Euro Stoxx 600 climbed 3%. On the data front, a preliminary January reading of U.S. Markit Manufacturing rose to 52.7, above the 51.0 projected by analysts. Existing home sales increased 14.7% versus expectations of a 9.2% advance. Finally, a gauge of leading indicators fell 0.2%, in line with analyst predictions. All ten sectors of the S&P 500 finished higher on Friday. Energy shares led the way with a 4.2% gain while tech and telecom stocks also outperformed. In tech, Apple (AAPL +5.32%) rebounded after positive analyst commentary. In earnings, General Electric (GE -1.22%) fell after missing revenue forecasts. Schlumberger (SLB +6.10%) rose after beating earnings estimates and announcing a $10 billion share buyback. Treasuries retreated with the benchmark 10-year note finishing 6/32 lower to yield 2.05%. In commodities, NYMEX WTI rebounded another 9.1% to $32.21/barrel. COMEX gold traded flat at $1098.00/ounce. In FOREX, the dollar index gained 0.5%.
