Major Indices Notch Additional Gains Amid Reopening Optimism
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
The Dow advanced 267 points, while the S&P 500 rose 0.8%. The Nasdaq Composite gained 0.6%. Breadth was positive as advancers led decliners by almost a 3-1 margin on the NYSE and by a 5-3 margin on the Nasdaq exchange. The reported volume totals were higher than the prior session on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 48 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, versus 47 on the prior session. New 52-week highs totals outnumbered shrinking new 52-week lows totals on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. The major indices are in a confirmed uptrend (M criteria). Any sustainable rally requires a healthy crop of new leaders, so the recent improvement in new highs totals was noted as an encouraging sign. Charts used courtesy of www.stockcharts.com
PICTURED: The S&P 500 Index made additional progress since rising above its 200-day moving average (DMA) line and finished -9.2% off its record high hit on 2/19/20.
Stock finished higher Tuesday as investors focused their attention on economic reopenings. Adding to positive sentiment were talks of additional fiscal stimulus in Europe and the United States. Reports indicated the White House could meet as soon as this week to discuss proposals for the next wave of coronavirus stimulus. However, several headwinds lingered throughout the day, including increasing social unrest across the nation, U.S.-China geopolitical tensions, and worries surrounding a spike in COVID-19 infections.
Treasuries weakened, with the yield on the 10-year note increasing by two basis point to 0.68%. Other perceived safe haven assets also declined, with COMEX gold losing 0.6% and the U.S. dollar falling for the fourth straight day. In commodities, WTI crude rallied 4.1% to $36.89/barrel on reports that OPEC and its allies are nearing a deal to extend production cuts through September.
All 11 S&P 500 sectors ended the day in positive territory, with the more value and cyclical oriented stocks outperforming. The Energy group paced gains, while the Materials and Industrials sectors both advanced more than 1.0%. In earnings, Dick’s Sporting Goods (DKS +3.68%) rose as a more than 100% spike in e-commerce sales and a solid start to the second-quarter overshadowed a larger-than-anticipated first-quarter loss. In other corporate news, Restoration Hardware (RH +16.79%) following a letter to shareholder outlining the expectations to expand profit margins in 2020. Elsewhere, shares of gun and ammo makers rallied amid data showing a surge in background checks for firearms.

Energy, Tech, Financial, and Retail Indexes Rose
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
The Bank Index ($BKX +0.71%) and the Broker/Dealer Index ($XBD +1.01%) both posted solid gains on Tuesday. The Retail Index ($RLX +0.56%) posted a smaller gain. The tech sector also had a positive bias as the Semiconductor Index ($SOX +2.18%), Biotech Index ($BTK +.0.93%), and Networking Index ($NWX +0.95%) each posted gains. Commodity-linked groups were mixed as the Oil Services Index ($OSX +4.11%) and Integrated Oil Index ($XOI +3.31%) bot rose, but the Gold & Silver Index ($XAU -3.49%) was a standout decliner.
PICTURED: The Biotech Index ($BTK +.0.93%) managed a best-ever close while hovering near its all-time high.

Godaddy Could Be Ready to Go for New Highs
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
Godaddy Inc Cl A (GDDY +$2.36 or +3.03% to $80.32) was highlighted in yellow with pivot point cited based on its 5/01/19 high plus 10 cents in the earlier mid-day report (read here). Very little resistance remains due to overhead supply. Subsequent gains above the pivot point backed by at least +40% above average volume are needed to trigger a proper technical buy signal. Disciplined investors know to watch for proof of fresh institutional buying demand that can lead to a sustained rally and meaningful leg up. It rebounded impressively after a deep pullback undercut prior lows. Now it is approaching multi-year highs where it previously met stubborn resistance in the $82-84 area.
The Computer Software-Enterprise industry group has a 99 Group Relative Strength Rating (L criteria). The firm's past 3 quarterly earnings comparisons through Mar '20 versus the year ago periods were above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). After years of losses, since FY 17 its annual earnings growth (A criteria) has been strong. It the highest possible 99 Earnings Per Share rating.
The number of top-rated funds owning its shares reportedly fell from 947 in Dec '19 to 928 in Mar '20, however, its current Up/Down Volume Ratio of 1.8 is an unbiased indication its shares have been under accumulation over the past 50 days. It has an A Timelines Rating and a B- Accumulation/Distribution Rating.

Y - Gapped up and hit a new all-time high today but finished in the lower half of its intra-day range. Color code was changed to yellow after forming an advanced "3 weeks tight" base pattern with a new pivot point cited based on its 5/12/20 high plus 10 cents. Subsequent gains and strong close above the pivot point backed by at least +40% above average volume may clinch a convincing new (or add-on) technical buy signal. Prior low ($78.28 on 5/14/20) defines initial support above its 50 DMA line ($71). Fundamentals remain strong.

Y - Managed a "positive reversal" on 5/27/20 but volume totals have been very light behind recent gains. Found prompt support near its 50 DMA line ($410.72), and more damaging losses would trigger a technical sell signal. A rebound and subsequent gains above the pivot point must be backed by at least +40% above average volume to trigger a proper new (or add-on) technical buy signal. Fundamentals remain strong.

G - Color code is changed to green while now trading above the "max buy" level. Suffered a small loss with very light volume today, yet still perched near its all-time high. Recent gains above the pivot point were not backed by the +40% above average volume necessary to clinch a proper technical buy signal. Prior highs in the $362 area define initial support to watch on pullbacks.

Y - Hitting new all-time highs with today's 3rd consecutive volume-driven gain. Finished strong on the prior session after highlighted in yellow with new pivot point cited based on its 2/20/20 high plus 10 cents in the earlier mid-day report (read here). The gain above the pivot point was backed by +126% above average volume triggering a technical buy signal. It posted a recent spurt of gains since completing a new Secondary Offering on 5/15/20. PING reported strong earnings results well above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria) in the 4 latest quarterly comparisons through Mar '20 versus the year ago periods. Limited earnings history is a concern, however, leadership in the Computer Software - Security industry group (L criteria) is a reassuring sign. Completed its $15 IPO on 9/19/19. See the latest FSU analysis for more details and an annotated graph.
