Breadth Positive as Major Indices Posted Solid Gains
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
The major indices all jumped more than +1.0% and the S&P 500 closed above 5,600 for the first time. Volume was higher than the prior session totals on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. Breadth was clearly positive as advancers led decliners by a 3-1 margin on the NYSE and by a 5-3 margin on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 55 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, versus the total of 43 on the prior session. New 52-week highs outnumbered new 52-week lows on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. The major indices are in a confirmed uptrend (M criteria) that recently endured some pressure. Remember that any uptrend requires healthy leadership.
PICTURED: The Dow Jones Industrial Average posted a gain on Wednesday while consolidating above its 50-day moving average (DMA) line. It is perched -0.9% off its all-time high.
With the June Consumer Price Index data due tomorrow and the start of earnings season on Friday, mega cap and semiconductor-related names boosted the broader market on Wednesday's session. NVIDIA (NVDA +2.7%), Apple (AAPL +1.8%), Microsoft (MSFT +1.5%), and Alphabet (GOOG +1.2%) each rose. Bank stocks also outperformed the broader market. The SPDR S&P Bank ETF (KBE) rose +2.0% and the SPDR Regional Banking ETF (KRE) closed with a +2.2% gain.
All 11 S&P 500 sectors closed higher. The heavily-weighted information technology sector (+1.6%) led the market as the financial sector (+0.4%) posted releatively smaller gains. The 10-yr note yield dropped two basis points to 4.28% and the 2-yr note yield settled unchanged at 4.63%. There was strong demand for the latest $39 billion 10-yr note sale.

Lingering Below 50-Day Moving Average But Only -7% Off High
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
Transdigm Group Inc (TDG +$2.22 or +0.17% to $1,272.68) is still lingering below its 50-day moving average (DMA) line ($1,304) yet perched only -7.1% off its all-time high. Only a prompt rebound above the 50 DMA line would help its outlook improve. Fundamentals remain strong.
TDG was last shown in this FSU section on 6/12/24 with an annotated graph under the headline, "Transdigm Consolidating Above 50-Day Moving Average". TDG reported Mar '24 quarterly earnings +34% on +21% sales revenues versus the year-ago period, its 12th consecutive comparison above the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria). Growth has been very strong after a downturn in FY '20 and '21 (A criteria) hurt its earnings track record. It has a 92 Earnings Per Share Rating.
The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 1,332 in Dec '22 to 1,602 in Jun '24, a reassuring trend concerning the I criteria. Its small supply of 53.7 million shares (S criteria) in the public float can contribute to greater price volatility in the event of institutional buying or selling. It has a Timeliness Rating of A and an Accumulation/Distribution rating of E. |

Y - Still perched within close striking distance of all-time high. Color code was changed to yellow with new pivot point cited based on its 5/15/24 high plus 10 cents. Subsequent gains above the pivot point backed by at least +40% above average volume may trigger a new (or add-on) technical buy signal. Found prompt support after briefly undercutting its 50 DMA line ($348) in recent weeks. Fundamentals remain strong.

Y - Hitting a new all-time high with today's 3rd consecutive gain. A gain backed by at least +40% above average volume and a close above the new pivot point cited based on its 5/28/24 high plus 10 cents may trigger a proper technical buy signal. Important support is at prior highs in the $51 area and its 50 DMA line.
