Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam

The S&P 500 rallied 1% to another record closing high to cap a fourth-straight weekly gain. The Dow climbed 301 points, while the Nasdaq Composite advanced 1.1%, also ending the day at an all-time high. For the week, the S&P 500 rose 1.5%, while the Dow and Nasdaq Composite were each up 1.4% and 1.7%, respectively. Advancers led decliners by almost a 3-1 margin on the NYSE and more than 3-1 on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 81 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit a new 52-week high and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, versus the total of 53 on the prior session. New 52-week highs totals expanded and easily outnumbered shrinking new 52-week lows totals on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. The major indices (M criteria) are in a "confirmed uptrend" after enduring distributional pressure in recent weeks. The Featured Stocks Page provides the most timely analysis on high-ranked leaders.

PICTURED: The Nasdaq Composite Index hit a new record high with a solid volume-driven gain.

Stocks finished firmly higher Friday, as investors digested better-than-expected economic data and the latest trade headlines. On the data front, the Labor Department’s non-farm payrolls report showed 128,000 jobs were added in October, exceeding analyst expectations of an 85,000 uptick. The unemployment rate rose to 3.6% from a 50-year low of 3.5%. Separately, the Institute for Supply Management’s gauge showed manufacturing activity improved slightly in October, though remained in contractionary territory for the third-consecutive month. Treasuries declined, with the yield on the 10-year note up four basis points to 1.72%. In commodities, WTI crude added 3.7% to $56.20/barrel, paring its weekly decline to 1%.

Risk sentiment was also supported on reassurance from President Trump, who said that Washington and Beijing would determine a new meeting site to sign a “Phase One” trade agreement later this month. Separately, Chinese officials stated a “consensus on principles” was reached with the U.S. during discussions this week.

Nine of 11 S&P 500 sectors closed in positive territory, with Real Estate and Utilities the laggards. Energy shares paced gains with Exxon Mobil (XOM +3.00%) rising following its positive quarterly results. In M&A news, Fitbit (FIT +15.53%) rose after Google parent Alphabet (GOOGL +1.07%) agreed to purchase the smartwatch maker.
