Leadership Waned as Major Indices Fell With Lighter Volume Totals
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
The S&P 500 fell 0.8%, a day after closing slightly in positive territory for the year. The Dow lost 300 points, snapping a six-session winning streak. The Nasdaq Composite briefly traded above the 10,000 level for the first time ever, but pared back some gains to end 0.3% higher at a fresh closing record high of 9,953. The small cap Russell 2000 Index slipped 1.7% after climbing more than 10% during the first six trading sessions of June. Decliners led advancers by more than a 3-1 margin on the NYSE and by nearly 2-1 margin on the Nasdaq exchange. The reported volume totals were lighter than the prior session on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange, indicative of only light selling coming from the institutional crowd. There were 17 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, versus the 43 on the prior session. New 52-week highs totals contracted yet still outnumbered new 52-week lows totals which were in the single digits 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 Dow Jones Industrial Average is now -7.8% off its record high.
Stocks finished mixed on Tuesday as investors assessed Wall Street’s recent rally. Nine of 11 S&P 500 sectors finished in negative territory, with the Technology and Communication Services groups bucking the downtrend. Energy and Industrials shares, which have staged a rebound in recent weeks, led laggards. In corporate news, Apple (AAPL +3.16%) after the iPhone maker announced plans to switch from Intel’s (INTC -0.99%) main processors to its own in chips in Mac computers. Tiffany & Co (TIF +1.95%) rose as an encouraging rebound in its Chinese market overshadowed disappointing quarterly figures. Amazon Inc (AMZN +3.03%) rose above $2,600 for the first time as it hit a new all-time high.
Amid the perceived “risk-off” mood, Treasuries strengthened. The yield on the benchmark 10-year note was down five basis points to 0.82%. On the data front, the NFIB’s gauge of small business optimism improved more than expected in May. Separately, the Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey (JOLTS) showed only 5 million jobs openings in April after March’s 6 million figure was the lowest since at least May 2017. In commodities, WTI crude added 1.5% to $38.78/barrel, while COMEX gold rose 0.8% to $1,712.00/ounce amid a weaker dollar.

Big Chip Firm Showing Strong Sales Revenues and Earnings Increases
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
Advanced Micro Devices (AMD +$3.42 or +6.46% to $56.39) was highlighted in yellow in the earlier mid-day report (read here) with pivot point cited based on its 5/20/20 high while building on an orderly double-bottom base above its 50-day moving average which has acted as support. Subsequent gains above the pivot point backed by at least +40% above average volume may trigger a convincing technical buy signal. Today's gain also has it approaching previously stubborn resistance in the $57-59 area. Subsequent gains into new high territory may mark the beginning of a new substantial leg higher.
The 3 latest quarterly comparisons through Mar '20 showed very strong earnings increases well above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria) with greatly improved sales revenues growth +50% and +40% in the Dec '19 and Mar '20 comparisons, respectively, versus the year ago periods. Annual earnings growth (A criteria) has been very strong after losses in FY '15 and '16. it has a highest possible 99 Earnings Per Share Rating.
AMD hails from the Electronics - Semiconductor Fabless industry which has a Group Relative Strength Rating of 95 (L criteria). It has a large supply of 1.17 billion shares outstanding (S criteria), which makes it less likely to be a quick sprinter. However, the number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 1,669 in Jun '19 to 1,985 in Mar '20, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. It has a Timeliness Rating of A and Sponsorship Rating of B. Its Accumulation/Distribution rating is B-.

Y - Posted a solid gain today with below average volume. Found prompt support near its 50 DMA line ($417) in recent weeks while volume totals cooled. More damaging losses leading to a violation would trigger a technical sell signal. 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.
