Tech Weakness Weighed on Nasdaq Composite Index
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam

The S&P 500 rose for a seventh consecutive day, adding 0.3% and closing within 0.8% of its February 19th all-time high. The Dow rallied 357 points, while the Tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite declined for a second straight day, slipping 0.4%. The reported volume totals were mixed, higher than the prior session on the NYSE and lighter on the Nasdaq exchange. Breadth was positive as advancers led decliners by more than a 2-1 margin on the NYSE and by a 3-2 margin on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 72 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, versus the total of 77 on the prior session. New 52-week highs totals solidly outnumbered new 52-week lows totals again on both the NYSE and the Nasdaq exchange. New 52-week lows totals on both exchanges were in the single digits. The major indices are in a confirmed uptrend (M criteria). Any sustainable rally requires a healthy crop of new leaders, so it remains ever-important to see substantial new highs totals.

PICTURED: The S&P 500 Index is perched -1% off its record high.

Stocks finished mixed on Monday, as investors seemed to shy away from Tech-related stocks. Six of 11 S&P 500 sectors ended in positive territory with the Energy and Industrials groups pacing the gains. Information Technology and Communication Services were notable laggards, with the oft-cited FAANG group losing 0.9%. In earnings, Marriott International (MAR +3.57%) rose despite reporting a wider than anticipated loss and its first unprofitable quarter in nine years. In other corporate news, Simon Property Group (SPG +5.27%) rose after the company said it was in talks to turn empty department store spaces into Amazon (AMZN -0.61%) fulfillment centers. Elsewhere, casino companies with operations in Macau rallied after the city resumed granting tourist visas for visitors. Shares of Wynn Resorts (WYNN +9.96%) and MGM (MGM +13.77%) each posted big gains.

Investors also monitored updates on a federal fiscal stimulus package and U.S.-China tensions. Over the weekend, President Trump took executive action to extend economic aid on unemployment benefits, payroll taxes, eviction protection, and student-loan relief. Meanwhile, China sanctioned 11 Americans in retaliation to similar action taken by the United States last week over Hong Kong issues.

Treasuries declined, with the yield on the 10-year note up two basis points to 0.58%. In commodities, WTI crude added 1.8% to $41.97/barrel after Saudi Aramco said demand for crude should continue to improve. COMEX gold rose 0.4% to $2,017.70/ounce.

Perched Near High With Earnings News Due Wednesday Evening
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam

Ping Identity Hldg Corp (PING -$0.75 or -2.06% to $35.60) pulled back from its all-time high with today's 2nd consecutive loss. Its 50-day moving average (DMA) line ($32.46) defines important near-term support above its prior highs in the $29 area. It has not formed a sound base of sufficient length. Keep in mind it is due to report Jun '20 quarterly results after the close on Wednesday, 8/12/20. Volume and volatility often increase near earnings news.

PING was last shown in this FSU section on 7/16/20 with an annotated graph under the headline, "Consolidating Above 50-Day Moving Average Following Secondary". It completed Secondary Offerings on 7/09/20 and 5/15/20. It was highlighted in yellow with new pivot point cited based on its 2/20/20 high plus 10 cents in the 6/01/20 mid-day report (read here). The gain above the pivot point on 6/18/20 was backed by +127% above average volume triggering a technical buy signal as it hit a new 52-week high (N criteria).

Its $15 IPO was completed on 9/19/19. The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 83 in Sep '19 to 192 in Jun '20, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. Its current Up/Down Volume Ratio of 1.5 is an unbiased indication its shares have been under accumulation over the past 50 days.

The Computer Software-Security firm has 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. The groups is currently ranked 25th of the 197 industry groups.

Prior low ($124.24 on 7/15/20) defines the next important support level to watch.
