Tech Selloff Resumes and Pressures Major Indices Again
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
The Dow declined 405 points, while the S&P 500 fell 1.8% after posting its best day since June yesterday. The Nasdaq Composite slipped 2.0%, giving up early gains of more than 1% in the choppy trading session. However, the Tech-heavy index ended the day above correction territory, down 9.4% from its record closing high notched last Wednesday. The reported volume totals were higher than the prior session totals on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange, revealing an increase in distributional selling pressure from the institutional crowd. Breadth was negative as decliners led advancers by a 2-1 margin on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. Leadership remained thin as only 12 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List hit new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, versus the total of 13 on the prior session. New 52-week highs totals outnumbered new 52-week lows on both the NYSE and the Nasdaq exchange. The major indices have seen their uptrend recently come under pressure (M criteria). Any sustainable rally requires a healthy crop of new leaders, so it remains very important to see substantial improvement in the new highs totals.
PICTURED: The S&P 500 Index recently undercut its February high and it is testing its 50-day moving average (DMA) line with a spurt of losses marked by higher volume.
Stock U.S. equities finished broadly lower Thursday as the sell-off in Tech stocks resumed and investors assessed updates on the labor market. On the data front, initial jobless claims came in at 884,000 in the week ending September 5, higher than expected and matching the previous upwardly revised reading. Treasuries strengthened amid the perceived “risk off” mood with the yield on the 10-year note falling one basis point to 0.68%. Meanwhile, data from Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corp (FMCC -0.48%) commonly called "Freddie Mac" showed the 30-year fixed mortgage rate dropped to a fresh all-time low of 2.86% in the most recent week. In commodities, WTI crude fell 2.5% to $37.10/barrel amid a surprise build in U.S. crude inventories.
All 11 S&P 500 sectors ended the day in negative territory, with Energy and Information Technology stocks leading the downturn. In corporate news, mega-cap stocks traded lower with Apple (AAPL -3.32%), Amazon (AMZN -2.86%), and Microsoft (MSFT -2.80%) all suffering large losses. Elsewhere, Penn National Gaming Inc (PENN +7.41%) jumped after receiving a street high price target, citing growth in online sports betting. In earnings, Restoration Hardware (RH +20.05%) surged after the luxury furniture retailer provided optimistic forward guidance. GameStop (GME -15.24%) tumbled following a larger-than-forecasted quarterly loss. |

Adobe Found Support Following Recent Breakout
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
Adobe Inc (ADBE -$3.20 or -0.67% to $476.26) reversed into the red and ended the session lower after it was highlighted in yellow in the earlier mid-day report (read here) after finding support at its 10 week-moving average (WMA). A valid secondary buy point exists up to 5% above the latest high. It pulled back from its all-time high and found support above its 50-day moving average (DMA) line ($461).
Disciplined investors always limit losses by selling any stock that falls more than 7-8% from their purchase price. Keep in mind it is due to report Aug '20 quarterly results on Tuesday, 9/15/20. Volume and volatility often increase near earnings news. This well-known Computer Software - Desktop firm reported May '20 quarterly earnings +34% on +14% sales revenues, which marked its 3rd consecutive quarterly earnings increase above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). Annual earnings history (A criteria) has been strong and steady.
It has a large supply of 479.7 million shares outstanding (S criteria) which makes it a less likely sprinter. However, the number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 3,285 in Sep '19 to 3,860 in Jun '20, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. Its current Up/Down Volume Ratio of 1.2 is an unbiased indication its shares have been under slight accumulation over the past 50 days. It has an A Timeliness Rating and a B Sponsorship rating, however, its Accumulation/Distribution rating is currently a D.

Y - Encountered distributional pressure and reversed early gains to suffer a loss with above average volume today after highlighted in yellow in the mid-day report. Since finding support at its 10 week-moving average (WMA), a valid secondary buy point exists up to 5% above the latest high. Subsequent losses violating its 50 DMA line ($461) may trigger a technical sell signal. Disciplined investors always limit losses by selling any stock that falls more than 7-8% from their purchase price. Due to report Aug '20 quarterly results on 9/15/20. Volume and volatility often increase near earnings news. This well-known Computer Software - Desktop firm reported May '20 quarterly earnings +34% on +14% sales revenues, its 3rd consecutive quarterly earnings increase above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). Annual earnings history (A criteria) has been strong and steady. See the latest FSU analysis for more details and a new annotated graph.

G - Volume is above average behind today's gain after gapping up. Approaching previously stubborn resistance in the $221 area. Found prompt support at its 50 DMA line ($204) after volume-driven losses. Recently reported Jun '20 quarterly earnings -3% on +4% sales revenues, below the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria), but better than expected while the company also raised its guidance.
