Indices Ended Mixed While Market Leadership Remains Healthy

For the week, the Dow and S&P 500 both slipped 0.5%. The Nasdaq posted a 0.7% weekly decline. Stocks finished mixed Friday. The Dow gained 1 point to 24715, while the S&P 500 lost 7 points to 2712. The Nasdaq Composite fell 28 points to 7354. Volume totals reported were mixed, higher than the prior session total on the NYSE and lighter on the Nasdaq exchange. Breadth was fairly even on the Nasdaq exchange while advancers narrowly led decliners on the NYSE . Leadership remained strong as there were 71 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that made new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, versus the total of 67 on the prior session. New 52-week highs totals contracted but solidly outnumbered new 52-week lows on the Nasdaq exchange and NYSE. The major indices (M criteria) remain in a confirmed rally with healthy leadership (stocks hitting new highs) continuing to underpin the market. New buying efforts are justified only when all key criteria of the fact-based investment system are satisfied. ThFeatured Stocks Pageprovides the most timely analysis on high-ranked leaders.

PICTURED: The Dow Jones Industrial Average is -7.1% off its record high hit on January 26th. It found support at its 200-day moving average (DMA) line and recently rebounded above its 50 DMA line. 

The major averages edged lower for the week amid uncertainty surrounding global trade policies as investors awaited the latest updates on U.S. and Chinese trade negotiations. The two economic powers kicked off a two-day trade summit on Thursday and are working on a compromise to avoid a potential trade war. No notable economic updates were released today.

Six of 11 sectors in the S&P 500 closed in negative territory. Financials and Energy lagged, while Industrials outperformed. In earnings, Campbell Soup (CPB -12.37%) fell after providing lower forward guidance and abrupt news that the CEO will retire. Deere & Co. (DE -5.75%) fell after missing consensus estimates but announcing a series of price increases. Applied Materials (AMAT -8.25%) fell amid concerns surrounding a slowdown in smartphone demand following the chipmaker’s quarterly release. Nordstrom (JWN -10.90%) fell after the retailer missed expectations of same-store sales.

Treasuries advanced with the yield on the 10-year note down four basis points to 3.06%. In commodities, WTI crude lost 0.3% to $71.31/barrel. COMEX gold added 0.2% at $1291.80/ounce. The U.S. dollar saw its best week since 2016.

Some Technical Sputtering Yet Bank is Still Only -7% Off High

Preferred Bank Los Angeles (PFBC -$0.45 or -0.71% to $62.91) is highlighted again in yellow with a new pivot point cited based on its 1/22/18 high plus 10 cents. First, it needs to rebound above its 50-day moving average (DMA) line ($64.64) for its outlook to improve. Subsequent volume-driven gains for new highs may trigger a technical buy signal.

Currently it has a Timeliness rating of B and a Sponsorship rating of C. Both of those ratings are down from when it was last shown in this FSU section on 4/10/18 with an annotated graph under the headline "Bank Stock Hovering Within Striking Distance of Prior High". Its Relative Strength Rating also has slumped to 66, below the 80+ minimum guideline for buy candidates. However, despite all of the above noted concerns, it remains perched only -7% off its all time high. Damaging losses below the recent lows and below its 200 DMA line would raise serious concerns and trigger a technical sell signal.

Fundamentals through Mar '18 have remained strong. It reported earnings +35% on +23% sales revenues for the Mar '18 quarter, its 6th consecutive quarterly comparison above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria).Its annual earnings (A criteria) history has been strong after a downturn in FY '12.

The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 262 in Dec '16 to 300 in Mar '18, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. Its current Up/Down Volume Ratio of 0.9 is an unbiased indication its shares have been under distributional pressure over the past 50 days.

Y - Volume totals still have been below average while wedging into new all-time high territory. Gains above a stock's pivot point must have at least +40% above average volume to trigger a proper new (or add-on) technical buy signal. Its 50 DMA line ($64.56) defines near term support above the recent low ($59.50 on 4/03/18).

Y - Color code is changed to yellow with new pivot point cited based on its 4/18/18 high after forming a "double bottom" base. A gain and close above the pivot point backed by at least +40% above average volume may trigger a new technical buy signal. Found prompt support near its 200 DMA line and prior lows in the $71-72 area. Rebound above the 50 DMA line with volume-driven gains helped its outlook improve. Fundamentals remain strong.
