Major Indices Fell as Breadth Turned Negative

The Dow Jones Industrial Average logged the smallest decline among the major indices thanks to a big gain in Disney (DIS +6.91%) after reporting earnings. The volume totals were higher than the prior session on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. Decliners led advancers by a 3-1 margin on the NYSE and by nearly 3-1 on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 35 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, versus the total of 30 on the prior session. New 52-week lows totals expanded and solidly outnumbered shrinking new 52-week highs on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. The major indices recently signaled a new confirmed uptrend for the market (M criteria). New buying efforts should be only made in stocks fitting all key criteria of the fact-based investment system.

PICTURED: The S&P 600 Small Cap Index met resistance at its 50-day moving average (DMA) line and has slumped toward the prior low.

All 11 S&P 500 sectors closed in the red with losses ranging from 0.2% (industrials) to 2.1% (health care). Duolingo, Inc.(DUOL +21.37%), Amphastar Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (AMPH +15.39%), Vertex, Inc. (VERX +21.03%), and TransDigm Group Incorporated (TDG +8.70%) were standout gainers. Veeva Systems Inc. (VEEV -14.18%), NextEra Energy Partners (NEP -11.35%), Carvana Co. (CVNA -10.44%), and Instacart (Maplebear Inc.) (CART -10.13%) were big decliners.

The 10-yr note yield settled at 4.63%, and the 30-yr bond yield settled at 4.78% as the latest $24 billion 30-yr bond auction showed weak demand. Including Thursday's losses, the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite are still up 3.7% and 5.2%, respectively, so far in November.

TransDigm's Big Gap Up Gain Triggered Technical Buy Signal

Transdigm Group Inc's (TDG +$77.86 or +8.70% to $973.07) finshed strong after highlighted in yellow in the earlier mid-day report (read here) with pivot point cited based on its 8/08/23 high plus 10 cents. It hit a new all-time high (N criteria) triggering a technical buy signal with today's "breakaway gap" and 10th consecutive volume-driven gain. Bullish action came after it reported Sep '23 quarterly earnings +46% on +23% sales revenues versus the year-ago period, its 10th consecutive comparison above the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria). Growth has been very strong after a downturn in FY '20 and '21 (A criteria) hurt its earnings track record. It has an 87 Earnings Per Share Rating.

The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 1,332 in Dec '22 to 1,486 in Sep '23, a reassuring trend concerning the I criteria. Its small supply of 53 million shares (S criteria) in the public float can contribute to greater price volatility in the event of institutional buying or selling. It has a Timeliness Rating of A and an Accumulation/Distribution rating of B-.

Reported Sep '23 quarterly earnings +69% on +39% sales revenues versus the year-ago period, its 3rd strong quarter, well above the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria).
