Major Averages Failed to Build on "Day 1" Gains

On Tuesday the major averages failed to build on Monday's gains which had snapped a six-day losing streak. Volume totals were reported mixed, lighter on the Nasdaq exchange and higher on the NYSE versus the prior session's totals. Breadth was narrowly positive on the NYSE but decliners led advancers by more than 3-2 on the Nasdaq exchange. New 52-week highs were still outnumbered by new 52-week lows on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 4 high-ranked companies from the CANSLIM.net Leaders List that made new 52-week highs and appeared on the CANSLIM.net BreakOuts Page, up from the prior session total of 0 stocks. Investors watching for a follow-through day in the days and weeks ahead should be aware that an expansion in the number of stocks hitting new 52-week highs is an important component to any new confirmed rally.  Tuesday's session brought gains for 13 of the 20 high-ranked companies currently included on the Featured Stocks Page, a list that recently has been shrinking.

 

The major averages advanced after a Chinese newspaper reported the country plans to fast track approvals for infrastructure projects and construction spending to spur growth. Positive housing data also provided a tailwind. Homebuilder Pulte Group (PHM +2.48%) was up after existing homes sales unexpectedly rose +3.4% in April. However, Fitch ratings agency downgraded Japan's credit rating with a negative outlook and the OECD projected that global growth would ease this year. European markets rallied to finish the session higher. The FTSE gained +1.9% in London and the DAX added +1.7% in Germany.

JP Morgan Chase & Co (JPM +4.61%) climbed to lead gainers in the Dow. Retailers Urban Outfitters Inc (URBN +7.42%) and Williams-Sonoma Inc (WSM +3.34%) gained after posting earnings ahead of analyst projections. Over in tech, Facebook Inc (FB -8.9%) continued its lackluster start as a public company.

PICTURED: The Dow Jones Industrial Average held its ground on "Day 2" of a new rally attempt. Provided that the prior session's (Day 1) lows are not undercut the new rally effort will remain intact. Ideally, a follow-through day between Day 4-7 of additional confirming gains of +1.4% or greater by at least one of the major averages backed by higher volume, and coupled with an expansion in the number of stocks hitting new highs, would confirm a new rally. Meanwhile, investors should keep up a watchlist of worthy buy candidates while remaining protective of capital. Remember, one day of gains does not change the fact that the major averages (M criteria) are technically still in an ugly "correction" and stocks are vulnerable to much greater downside.

Bank and Retail Indexes' Gains Offset by Broader Losses

The Bank Index ($BKX +1.13%) was a positive influence on the major averages and the Retail Index ($RLX +0.32%) posted a small gain, but the Broker/Dealer Index ($XBD -0.10%) edged lower. Commodity-linked groups were the session's worst laggards as they backpedaled on Tuesday and the Gold & Silver Index ($XAU -1.05%), Oil Services Index ($OSX -0.57%), and Integrated Oil Index ($XOI -0.41%) suffered modest losses. Small losses for the Semiconductor Index ($SOX -0.77%), Internet Index ($IIX -0.49%), and Biotechnology Index ($BTK -0.45%) led the tech sector lower while the Networking Index ($NWX -0.09%) finished the day nearly unchanged. The Healthcare Index ($HMO -0.40%) also drifted lower.

PICTURED: The Networking Index's ($NWX -0.09%) recent slump nearly tested its October 2011 lows.

200-Day Moving Average Acting as Support After Breakout Was Negated

Accenture, Ltd. (ACN -$0.14 or -0.24% to $58.93) recently bounced from support at its longer-term 200-day moving average (DMA) line. It had triggered technical sell signals with its recent losses undercutting prior highs in the $62-63 area and violating its 50 DMA line.  It was last shown in this FSU section with an annotated graph on 3/23/12 under the headline, "Gain for New High on +88% Above Average Volume Clears 6 Month Base", as it rallied into new all-time high territory. Technically, it was described then as - "A bit extended after breaking out from an earlier base on 3/05/12, yet its color code was changed to yellow in the mid-day report (read here) with a pivot point cited based on its 7/07/11 high plus 10 cents. Its convincing finish with volume-driven gain above the pivot point was backed by +88% above average volume on Friday clinched a new (or add-on) technical buy signal."

It reported earnings +29% on +12% sales revenues for the quarter ended February 29, 2012 versus the year ago period. In 3 of the 4 most recent quarterly comparisons it showed encouraging earnings increases above the +25% minimum guideline, however sales revenues increases have shown recent deceleration, up +23%, +17%, and +12% in the latest period. Its annual earnings (A criteria) growth history has been good. Increasing ownership by top-rated funds (I criteria) is reassuring, however it is already heavily owned by the institutional crowd. The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 1,691 in Jun '11 to 1.907 in Dec '11, however that total fell to 1,803 in Mar '12, a disconcerting sign concerning the I criteria. Its Up/Down Volume Ratio of 0.7 also is an unbiased indication that it has encountered distributional pressure in the past 50 days. The Computer - Tech Services group's Group RS Rating has slumped to a mediocre 49, however there are still some strong acting leaders in the group that offer some reassurance concerning the L criteria.

Y - Color code is changed to yellow after above average volume behind today's gain was a sign of prompt support near its 50 DMA line. Its prior loss had negated its recent technical breakout. Market weakness (M criteria) is an overriding concern that argues against new buying efforts until a new confirmed rally with a follow-through day by at least one of the major averages.

Reported earnings +33% on +36% sales revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 versus the year ago period and it received an analyst upgrade. Recent lows near the $55 area define important chart support to watch.

G - Gain today was backed by lighter than average volume as it found some support near its old highs and halted a streak of 5 consecutive losses since a negative reversal at its 52-week high. It has slumped below its "max buy" level, however broader market weakness (M criteria) is an overriding concern which argues against any new buying efforts until a new rally is confirmed with a solid follow-through day by at least one of the major averages.

G - Gain today with slightly higher above average volume was a sign of prompt support as it rebounded above its 50 DMA line following a streak of 5 consecutive losses which completely negated the latest breakout. It stalled following its considerable "breakaway gap" on 5/03/12, meanwhile the broader market (M criteria) fell into the latest correction.
