The S&P 500 lost 5 points to 2181 and the Nasdaq Composite fell 12 points to 5321. Volume totals were mixed, higher than the prior session total on the NYSE and lighter on the Nasdaq exchange. Advancers narrowly led decliners on the Nasdaq exchange while the decliners narrowly led advancers on the NYSE. There were 103 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that made new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, versus 93 on the prior session. New 52-week highs totals solidly outnumbered new 52-week lows on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange.

PICTURED: The Dow Jones Industrial Average is perched near its record high.

The major averages (M criteria) are in a confirmed uptrend. New buying efforts should only be made in candidates with superior fundamental and technical characteristics. The Featured Stocks Page lists noteworthy high-ranked leaders.

The major averages declined on the session as investors digested remarks on monetary policy from Federal Reserve officials. Early Friday, St. Louis President James Bullard stated he is leaning towards supporting a rate hike next month. Echoing similar sentiments, Kansas City President Esther George said the Fed should increase rates sooner than later. Expectations for December rate hike buoyed amid the commentary. According to Bloomberg data, futures are currently pricing a 100% probability of a rate hike by next month, up two points from Thursday.

Seven of 11 sectors in the S&P 500 finished in negative territory. Consumer shares declined with Gap (GPS -16.61%) fell after the apparel retailer reported its seventh-straight quarter of declining revenue. Abercrombie & Fitch (ANF -13.76%) sank as same-store sales fell amid weaker-than-expected store traffic. Shares of Ross Stores (ROST +3.77%) rose after quarterly profit beat analysts’ expectations. Over in Tech, Salesforce.com (CRM +3.43%) rose as the software company issued an upbeat revenue forecast. Marvell Technology (MRVL +10.78%) rallied after announcing a $1 billion share repurchase plan.

Treasuries declined with the benchmark 10-year note down 10/32 to yield 2.33%. In commodities, NYMEX WTI crude added 0.4% to $45.59/barrel. COMEX gold fell 0.8% to $1207.50/ounce.

Perched Near Highs After Finding Support Above 50-Day Average
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam

China Lodging Group Ads (HTHT +$1.11 or +2.47% to $46.02) found support near its 50-day moving average (DMA) line ($45.24) this week. A damaging violation would raise concerns, and deterioration below recent lows in the $41 area would raise more serious concerns and trigger a worrisome technical sell signal. Subsequent gains for another new 52-week high (N criteria) could signal the beginning of another substantial leg up. However, it recently reported earnings +10% on +6% sales revenues for the Sep '16 quarter, below the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria), raising concerns. Its color code was changed to green.

HTHT was last shown in this FSU section on 10/25/16 with an annotated graph under the headline, "Still Building on New Base Pattern". It has traded up as much as +23.8% since first featured in yellow in the 7/13/16 mid-day report (read here). The number of top-rated funds owing its shares rose from 87 in Sep '15 to 143 in Sep '16, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. Currently the high-ranked Leisure- Lodging firm has a B Timeliness rating and a D Sponsorship rating. Its small supply of 27 million shares (S criteria) in the public float may contribute to greater price volatility in the event of institutional buying or selling.
