Major Indices Fell on Day 4 of New Rally Attempt
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
For the week, the Dow gained 2.4%, while the Nasdaq Composite advanced 2.7% to end a four-week losing streak. The S&P 500 climbed 2.4%, notching its best week in six months. Stocks finished lower Friday. The Dow fell 109 points to 25270, while the S&P 500 lost 17 points to 2723. The Nasdaq Composite dropped 77 points to 7357.The volume totals reported were mixed, lighter on the NYSE and higher on the Nasdaq exchange versus the prior session. Decliners led advancers by almost a 3-2 margin on the NYSE, meanwhile advancers narrowly outnumbered decliners on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 15 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that made new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, versus 12 on the prior session, as market leadership improved. New 52-week lows totals still outnumbered new 52-week highs on the NYSE and Nasdaq exchange. Recent reports have noted that the major indices (M criteria) have shown action indicative of a market correction. The Featured Stocks Page provides the most timely analysis on high-ranked leaders. Charts used courtesy of www.stockcharts.com
PICTURED: The Dow Jones Industrial Average and other major indices fell on Friday, marking Day 4 of a new rally attempt. Technically, the market remains in a "correction" under the fact-based investment system. Members have been reminded repeatedly that new buying efforts are against the rules until a convincing follow-through day occurs. Between Day 4 and Day 7 investors should watch for a "follow-through day" of solid gains (at least +1%) from one or more of the major indices, backed by higher volume, and coupled with a leadership expansion (increase in new 52-week highs). All of the above are necessary elements required to confirm a new rally. Until then, patience and discipline are paramount.
The major averages gave back early session gains as weakness in the Tech sector offset positive economic updates. On the data front, non-farm payrolls increased 250,000 in October, well above projections of 200,000. The unemployment rate remained at 3.7%, the lowest in 48 years. Meanwhile, average hourly earnings advanced 3.1% year-over-year in October, the highest reading since 2009. The robust wage growth has triggered renewed weakness in Treasuries with the yield on the benchmark 10-year note spiking eight basis points to 3.22%.
Nine of 11 S&P 500 sectors closed in negative territory with Technology shares falling 1.9%. Apple (AAPL - 6.63%) experienced its worst session since January 2014, retreating after offering weak forward guidance. In other earnings, Kraft Heinz (KHC -9.70%) fell following a disappointing quarterly report. Elsewhere, Starbucks (SBUX +9.70%) rallied to a new all-time high after the coffee chain topped earnings estimates and revealed strong same-store sales growth.
In commodities, WTI crude was down 1.3% to $62.88/barrel, sliding 6.8% on the week. COMEX gold edged 0.3% lower to $1234.40. |

Boat Retailer Has Strong Earnings History
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
Marinemax Inc (HZO +$0.83 or +3.46% to $24.84) was highlighted in yellow with pivot point cited based on its 6/07/18 high plus 10 cents in the earlier mid-day report (read here). It rebounded above its 50-day moving average (DMA) line with a streak of volume-driven gains this week. Subsequent gains and a strong close above the pivot point backed by at least +40% above average volume may trigger a technical buy signal.
Recently it reported Sep '18 earnings +105% on +23% sales revenues, its 4th consecutive quarter with a big earnings increase more than the +25% minimum (C criteria) versus the year ago period. Sales revenues growth has shown encouraging acceleration in sequential quarterly comparisons versus the year ago periods. Its annual earnings (A criteria) history has been strong and steady.
The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 250 in Dec '17 to 279 in Sep '18, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. The current Up/Down Volume Ratio of 1.4 is an unbiased indication its shares have been under accumulation over the past 50 days. Its Timeliness Rating is A and Sponsorship Rating is B.

Y - Touched another new all-time high with today's 5th consecutive small gain. Found support above its 50 DMA line ($175) after recently reporting earnings +22% on +2% sales revenues for the Sep '18 quarter, below the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria), raising fundamental concerns. Broad market weakness (M criteria) is also a serious concern. The 50 DMA line and prior low ($170.04 on 9/28/18) define important near-term support.
