Major Averages End Virtually Flat Ahead of ECB Policy Meeting

The major averages were virtually unchanged at the conclusion of Wednesday's session. The volume totals were reported mixed, slightly higher on the NYSE and lower on the Nasdaq exchange versus the prior session totals. Breadth showed a slightly negative bias as decliners led advancers by about a 7-6 ratio on the Nasdaq exchange and decliners led by an even narrower margin on the NYSE. The total number of new 52-week highs led new 52-week lows on the NYSE on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 68 high-ranked companies from the CANSLIM.net Leaders List that made new 52-week highs and appeared on the CANSLIM.net BreakOuts Page, down from the prior session total of 69 stocks. There were gains for 12 of the 23 high-ranked companies currently included on the Featured Stocks Page.

 

Stocks spent the day toggling between gains and losses as investors weighed the prospects for ECB action to quell the euro zone debt crisis and a batch of disappointing economic data. On the data front, the euro zone's PMI survey showed the region is headed back toward a recession and its periphery countries' economic troubles are now beginning to affect Germany. In the Pac-Rim, China's service industries expanded at a weaker pace in August and Australia's economy slowed more than expected in the second-quarter on weaker housing and rising imports. Attention now turns to Thursday's all-important ECB monetary policy meeting with investors hoping for an announcement of a bond-buying program to help lower the region's surging borrowing costs.

In the U.S., non-farm productivity rebounded more than initially estimated in the second-quarter, rising at a +2.2% annual rate after a -0.5% decline in the previous quarter. In a separate report, mortgage applications fell for a fifth consecutive week due to a drop in refinancing and new home loans. In fixed-income, Treasury yields rose from near one-month lows with the 10-year note down 5/32 to yield 1.59% and the 30-year bond lost 13/32 to yield 2.70%.

Sector action was mixed while the tone was cautious. Industrials dragged on the market after FedEx Corp (FDX -1.99%) cut its fiscal first-quarter forecast while citing a weaker than expected global economy. On the upside, Facebook (FB +4.80%) rallied after its CEO said he has no plans to sell his shares in the company for at least 12 months. The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (GS +3.28%) was a standout gainer among influential financials while it and Citigroup Inc (C +0.24%) were the subjects of filings today in New York State Supreme Court. Dusseldorf, Germany-based IKB Deutsche Industriebank AG claimed the two made "material misrepresentations" about the loans backing the securities and about the transfer of the loans into trusts, leading to losses on $210.6 million in mortgage- backed securities.

The M criteria is still favorable as the major indices have maintained their previously confirmed rally with a healthy level of leadership (stocks hitting new 52-week highs).

PICTURED: The NYSE Composite Index is perched -4.0% off its 3/19/12 high after losses on 10 of the past 12 sessions.

Retail, Energy-Related, and Tech Indexes Edged Lower

The Networking Index ($NWX -0.90%), Semiconductor Index ($SOX -0.65%), Biotechnology Index ($BTK -0.58%), and Internet Index ($IIX -0.15%) ended with unanimous losses. Weakness in energy-related shares dragged the Integrated Oil Index ($XOI -0.60%) and the Oil Services Index ($OSX -0.50%) lower. The Retail Index ($RLX -0.49%) and Bank Index ($BKX -0.23%) edged lower, creating a slight drag on the major indices.  Meanwhile, the Broker/Dealer Index ($XBD +0.08%), Healthcare Index ($HMO +0.02%), and the Gold & Silver Index ($XAU -0.14%) finished with little net change on a session marked by indecisiveness.

Charts courtesy www.stockcharts.com

PICTURED: The Bank Index ($BKX -0.23%) is consolidating above its 50-day and 200-day moving average (DMA) lines. It is in much better technical shape than the Broker/Dealer Index ($XBD +0.08%) shown in yesterday's commentary (read here). Ongoing strength and resilience in the Bank Index remains important because of the reliable history financial shares have as "leading indicators" for the broader market.

Distributional Pressure Led to Finish Just Below Pivot Point

Often, when a leading stock is setting up to breakout of a solid base it is highlighted in CANSLIM.net's Mid-Day Breakouts Report. The most relevant factors are noted in the report which alerts prudent CANSLIM oriented investors to place the issue in their watch list. After doing any necessary backup research, the investor is prepared to act after the stock triggers a technical buy signal (breaks above its pivot point on more than +50% average turnover) but before it gets too extended from a sound base. In the event the stock fails to trigger a technical buy signal and its price declines then it will simply be removed from the watch list. Disciplined investors know to buy as near as possible to the pivot point and avoid chasing stocks after they have rallied more than +5% above their pivot point. It is crucial to always limit losses whenever any stock heads the wrong direction, and disciplined investors sell if a struggling stock ever falls more than -7% from their purchase price.

Davita Inc (DVA +$2.65 or +2.71% to $100.29) was highlighted in yellow with pivot point cited based on its 52-week high plus 10 cents in the earlier mid-day report (read here). However, it encountered distributional pressure and ultimately failed to finish the session above its pivot point after hitting a new high with a considerable volume-driven gain. It has formed an orderly flat base and has no overhead supply to act as resistance. Subsequent volume-driven gains may help to clinch a convincing technical buy signal. Keep in mind that one way investors can reduce risk and allow the market action dictate their actions is to use a smart tactic taught in the Certification called "pyramiding".

Quarterly earnings increases have been above the +25% guideline (C criteria) and it has shown steady annual earnings (A criteria) growth. Ownership by top-rated funds fell from 1,005 in Dec '11 to 950 in Jun '12, a slightly disconcerting sign concerning the I criteria.


Color Codes Explained :
Y - Better candidates highlighted by our staff of experts.
G - Previously featured in past reports as yellow but may no longer be buyable under the guidelines.

Y - Encountered distributional pressure and ended with a small loss today with above average volume following a "negative reversal" after touching a new 52-week high. Color code is changed to yellow with a new pivot point cited based on its 8/15/12 high plus 10 cents as it has formed an advanced "3-weeks tight" base pattern. Subsequent volume-driven gains for a close above its pivot point may clinch a new (or add-on) technical buy signal. Prior highs in the $67-68 area define initial support to watch on pullbacks.

Y - Highlighted in yellow in the earlier mid-day report while building on the current 11-week base during which it found support at its 200 DMA line. New pivot point cited is based on its 6/20/12 high plus 10 cents. Little resistance remains due to overhead supply while consolidating -4.3% off its 52-week high, however volume-driven gains above its pivot point are needed to trigger a technical buy signal. Reported earnings +46% on +23% sales revenues for the quarter ended April 30, 2012 versus the year ago period. Completed a Secondary Offering on 5/10/12. See the latest FSU analysis for more details and a new annotated graph.
