Leadership Improved as Major Indices Posted Solid Gains
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
The major averages posted solid gains on Wednesday. Volume was reported mixed, higher than the prior session total on the NYSE and lower on the Nasdaq exchange. Advancers and decliners were evenly matched on the NYSE while decliners led advancers by a 4-3 margin on the Nasdaq exchange. Leadership improved as there were 93 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, well above the total of 36 on the prior session. New 52-week highs outnumbered new lows on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. The major indices are in a confirmed uptrend (M criteria). New buying efforts should be only made in stocks fitting all key criteria of the fact-based investment system.
PICTURED: The Dow Jones Industrial Average managed a new high close.
Enphase Energy (ENPH +16.91%), Emerson Electric (EMR +10.43%), Chipotle Mexican Grill (CMG +7.21%), Ford (F +6.05%), and CVS Health (CVS +3.10%) each posted gains following their earnings reports. Meta Platforms (META +3.27%), NVIDIA (NVDA +2.75%), Microsoft (MSFT +2.11%), Alphabet (GOOG +0.87%), Amazon.com (AMZN +0.82%) and Eli Lilly (LLY +2.89%) provided tremendous market-cap weighted influence on the major indices which was positive. Snap (SNAP -34.61%) fell below Q4 revenue estimates and issued disappointing guidance. Dow component Amgen (AMGN -6.39%) fell following its earnings results. New York Community Bancorp (NYCB +7.1%) managed a positive reversal after Moody's downgraded its long-term issuer rating to junk status (Ba2).
The leading sectors included information technology (+1.4%), consumer discretionary (+1.1%), communication services (+0.9%), and the materials (+0.8%) sector. The financial sector rose +0.7%.
The new $42 billion 10-yr note auction met strong demand. The 2-yr note yield settled up two basis points at 4.42% while the 10-yr note yield also settled up two basis points to 4.11%. Thursday will feature a new $25 billion 30-yr bond auction.

Gap Up Gain Followed Latest Earnings Report
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
Tenable Holdings (TEMB +$2.52 or 5.29% to $50.15) was highlighted in yellow in the earlier mid-day report (read here) with a pivot point cited based on its 8/01/23 high plus 10 cents. It pulled back from its early high after hitting a new 52-week high and there was +225% above average volume behind the gain and close above the pivot point clinching a technical buy signal.
TENB has a 98 Earnings Per Share Rating. Bullish action came after it reported earnings for the Dec '23 quarter +108% on +16% sales revenues versus the year-ago period. Volume and volatility often increase near earnings news. Its prior quarterly and annual earnings history (C and A criteria) is a good match with the fact-based investment system's fundamental guidelines.
It hails from the Computer Sftwr-Security group which is currently ranked 4th on the 197 Industry Groups list (L criteria). There are only 116.9 million shares outstanding (S criteria). The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 551 in Jun '23 to 569 in Dec '23, and its currently Up/Down Volume Ratio of 1.7 is an unbiased indication its shares have been under accumulation over the past 50 days. |
