The market (M criteria) is in a correction. A caution flag has been raised by the technical damage in the major indices coupled with a shrinking list of stocks hitting new highs. Disciplined investors know to raise cash by selling weakening stocks on a case-by-case basis, and to protect that cash by avoiding any new buys until a new rally is confirmed with a follow-through day.

Major Indices Rose With Mixed Breadth and Lighter Volume Totals
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
The Dow added 197 points, while the Nasdaq Composite finished 0.8% higher. The S&P 500 advanced 0.7%.The volume totals reported were lighter than the prior session on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange, as Friday's totals were inflated by options expirations. Breadth was mixed as advancers led decliners by about a 3-2 margin on the NYSE while decliners led advancers by a 5-4 margin on the Nasdaq exchange. Leadership remained thin as there was 1 high-ranked company from the Leaders List that hit a new 52-week high and was listed on the BreakOuts Page, up from zero on the prior session. New 52-week lows totals again solidly outnumbered new 52-week highs on both the NYSE and the Nasdaq exchange. The market is now in a correction (M criteria).
Chart courtesy of www.stockcharts.comPICTURED: The Nasdaq Composite Index posted a gain with lighter volume. It recently slumped back below its 50-day moving average (DMA) line toward the June low.
U.S. equities finished higher in a volatile session Monday as investors turned their attention to the Federal Reserve’s (Fed) monetary policy meeting. The Fed’s two-day meeting will commence tomorrow, and the expectation is the central bank will implement a third-straight 75 basis point (0.75%) rate hike. Nine of 11 sectors in the S&P 500 finished in positive territory, with Materials pacing gains.
On the data front today, a gauge of U.S. homebuilder sentiment fell for the ninth-straight month, its longest stretch of declines since 1985. The report showed measures of current and future sales fell to their weakest levels since May 2020. Rising mortgage rates, which last week hit their highest level since 2008, were cited as the main reason for the cool-down in the housing market.
Treasuries weakened, with the yield on the 10-year note up four basis points (0.04%) to 3.49%. The benchmark yield hit 3.51% earlier in the session, its highest level since 2011. Meanwhile, the yield on the more policy-sensitive two-year note added eight basis points (0.08%) to 3.94%, to hover just below its highest level since October 2007. In commodities, West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude climbed 0.1% to $85.22/barrel despite concerns over global fuel demand. Market participants weighed demand worries against easing COVID-19 restrictions in China and ongoing tight supply conditions. A gauge of the U.S. dollar has reversed earlier gains to end 0.1% lower, though it remained near a two-decade high.

Tested Support Near Prior High in the $115 Area
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
Clean Harbors Inc (CLH +$2.10 or +1.81% to $118.09) posted a gain today with near average volume, finding support after testing the prior high in the $115 area. More damaging losses would raise concerns and trigger a technical sell signal.
CLH has a highest possible Earnings Per Share Rating of 99. It reported Jun '22 quarterly earnings +105% on +46% sales revenues versus the year ago period. Prior quarters showed a strong earnings track record with earnings above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). Annual earnings (A criteria) growth has been strong and steady.
There are only 54.4 million shares outstanding (S criteria), which can contribute to greater price volatility in the event of institutional buying or selling. The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 590 in Sep '21 to 615 in Jun '22, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. The current Up/Down Volume Ratio of 1.7 is an unbiased indication its shares have been under accumulation over the past 50 days. It has a Timeliness Rating of A and a Sponsorship rating of B.
