Major Indices Reversed Gains to Close Session Lower
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
The Dow slumped 170 points, erasing an early session gain of more than 100 points. The blue chip index posted its worst week since mid-August, losing 1.2%. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite each fell 0.9% on Friday, with both benchmarks capping their biggest weekly declines since the fall. For the week, the S&P 500 dropped 1%, while the Nasdaq Composite slipped 0.8%. Breadth was negative as decliners led advancers by more than a 2-1 margin on the NYSE and nearly a 3-1 margin on the Nasdaq exchange. The reported volume totals were mixed, lighter than the prior session total on the NYSE and higher on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 89 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit a new 52-week high and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, versus the total of 59 on the prior session. New 52-week highs totals expanded and easily outnumbered new 52-week lows totals on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. The major indices (M criteria) are in a "confirmed uptrend" after enduring distributional pressure in recent weeks. The Featured Stocks Page provides the most timely analysis on high-ranked leaders. Charts used courtesy of www.stockcharts.com
PICTURED: The Nasdaq Composite Index reversed an early gain on Friday as it retreated from its record high
Stocks finished lower on Friday. Risk sentiment was pressured on reports that the Wuhan coronavirus spread from China to the U.S. and Europe.
Elsewhere, investors digested a slew of corporate earnings results. Intel (INTC +8.13%) gapped up after exceeding Wall Street profit and revenue estimates and offering positive current-quarter guidance. Broadcom (AVGO +1.36%) rose after signing a supply deal with Apple (AAPl -0.29%) worth roughly $15 billion. Rival Skyworks Solutions (SWKS -4.59%) was hurt by the news, despite topping analyst earnings and sales forecasts. Meanwhile, American Express (AXP +2.85%) following its top and bottom line beat.
In other corporate news, Disney (DIS -1.49%) fell following an announcement that its Shanghai resort would close indefinitely as Chinese authorities attempt to contain the virus outbreak. Elsewhere, Boeing (BA +1.66%) rose on reports that its beleaguered 737-MAX aircraft could gain FAA approval to return to service before mid-year.
Treasuries strengthened, with the yield on the 10-year note down five basis points to 1.68%. On the data front, most key global manufacturing readings showed improvement this month. A domestic release from research firm IHS Markit revealed manufacturing PMI remained in expansionary territory in January. In commodities, WTI crude slid 1.2% to $54.90/barrel, while COMEX gold added 0.3% to $1,570.80/ounce.

Gapped Up Today Following Another Strong Earnings Report
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
Atlassian Corp (TEAM +$14.15 or +10.67% to $146.79) was highlighted in yellow with pivot point cited based on its 1/13/20 high in the earlier mid-day report (read here). It gapped up today and touched a new all-time high, rising from a cup-with-handle base pattern with a big volume-driven gain triggering a technical buy signal. Volume was +514% above average behind the big gain, action indicative of fresh institutional buying demand.
Bullish action came after it reported earnings +48% on +37% sales revenues for the Dec '19 quarter. Fundamentals remained strong while it went through a deep consolidation below its 200 DMA line since dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 9/09/19. This Australia - based software developer has shown 9 consecutive quarterly comparisons above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). Its annual earnings (A criteria) history has been strong since its $21 IPO on 12/10/15.
TEAM was last shown in the FSU section on 8/21/19 with an annotated graph under the headline, "Consolidating Near High After Recently Finding Support". The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 266 in Sep '17 to 648 in Dec '19, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. It has a Timeliness Rating of A and Sponsorship Rating of A. Its current Up/Down Volume Ratio of 1.6 is an unbiased indication its shares have been under accumulation over the past 50 days. |
