TODAY'S SPECIAL NOTICE

Recent commentaries have noted an ongoing "market correction". No new buying efforts are to be made based on the (M criteria) of the fact-based investment system. Disciplined investors know to reduce market exposure by selling any weakening stocks on a case-by-case basis.

Indices Sputter Again on Lighter Volume Totals and Thin Leadership
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam

The Dow lost 37 points (-0.1%) while the Nasdaq Composite declined 0.5%. The S&P 500 dropped 0.2%. Volume totals reported were lighter than the prior session on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange, a reassuring sign of lighter institutional selling or less "distributional" pressure on stocks. Breadth was negative as decliners led advancers by a 3-2 margin on the NYSE and by a 5-4 margin on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 12 high-ranked companies from theLeaders List that hit a new 52-week high and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, versus the total of 14 on the prior session. New 52-week lows outnumbered new 52-week highs on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. The major indices are still in a market correction (M criteria). Disciplined investors know that the fact-based investment system does not allow any new buying efforts until there is a new confirmed rally marked by a noted follow-through day. Caution and patience remain paramount! Stay tuned...

PICTURED: The S&P 500 Index has been sputtering above its 200-day moving average (DMA) line but below its 50 DMA line with volume totals cooling. Tuesday's session marked Day 9 of the benchmark index's current rally attempt. Disciplined investors still are watching for a solid follow-through day to confirm a new uptrend.

Six of the eleven sectors finished in negative territory as U.S. equities closed in the red Tuesday. Technology stocks weighed on the broader market amid continued pressure from high interest rates, which were raised further by the Federal Reserve (Fed) last week. Elsewhere, Fed Vice Chair Michael Barr wrapped up his two days in Congress today. Barr commented on potential changes implemented by the central bank following the failure of two banks earlier this month. He noted the Fed will investigate strengthening capital and liquidity rules along with considering long-term debt requirements to provide an extra cushion, particularly on banks with more than $100 billion in assets.

On the data front, consumer confidence came in hotter than expected in March as the Conference Board Consumer Confidence Index jumped to 104.2 from the prior month’s upwardly revised 103.4 print. January’s Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) Price Index also topped analyst’s estimates by increasing 0.2%, up from December’s 0.1% decline. Meanwhile, January’s S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller U.S. Housing Price Index came in at 3.79% annual growth, declining from the revised 5.63% seen in December.

Treasuries weakened, with the yield on the benchmark 10-year note up one basis point (0.01%) to 3.55%, while the 30-year bond yield gained one basis point (0.01%) to 3.76%. The yield on the two-year note added four basis points (0.04%) to 4.06%. Over in the commodity pits, West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude increased 0.8% to $73.36/barrel amid disruption risks from Iraqi Kurdistan after the region was forced to halt exports.

Pulling Back After Getting Very Extended From Prior Base
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
Arista Networks Inc (ANET -$4.96 or -2.95% to $163.00) gapped down today and suffered a loss backed by +46% above average volume, retreating from its all-time high. It remains very extended from any sound base after an impressive spurt of volume-driven gains. Prior highs in the $148-145 area define initial support to watch above its 50-day moving average (DMA )line ($140). Broader market weakness (M criteria) has been noted as a "correction" that has raised concerns.

ANET was highlighted in yellow with pivot point cited based on its 12/27/21 high plus 10 cents in the 3/08/23 mid-day report (read here). It was last shown in this FSU section on 3/08/23 with an annotated graph under the headline, "Arista Challenging All-Time High". Subsequent gains above the pivot point backed by more than +40% above average volume triggered a technical buy signal.

ANET currently has a 98 Earnings Per Share Rating. It reported Dec '22 quarterly earnings +72% on +55% sales revenues versus the year ago period, its 5th quarterly comparison strong and steady above the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria). Annual earnings had a downturn in FY 20 like many during the pandemic.

The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 1,758 in Dec '21 to 2,061 in Dec '22, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. Its current Up/Down Volume Ratio of 2.7 is an unbiased indication its shares have been under accumulation over the past 50 days. The high-ranked Computer - Networking firm has a Timeliness Rating of A and a Sponsorship Rating of C. Its small supply of 245.1 million shares (S criteria) in the public float may contribute to greater volatility in the event of institutional buying or selling.
