Major Indices Ended Slightly Lower

The Dow lost 45 points, while the Nasdaq Composite shed 1.1%. The S&P 500 fell 0.4% amid weakness in Consumer Discretionary and Energy shares. The volume totals reported were mixed, higher than the prior session total on the NYSE and lighter on the Nasdaq exchange. Breadth was negative as decliners led advancers by an 8-7 margin on the NYSE and by a 3-2 margin on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 24 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, matching the total of 24 on the prior session. New 52-week lows outnumbered new 52-week highs on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. The market is in a confirmed uptrend (M criteria)Healthy leadership (new 52-week highs totals) has continued to help the rally be productive. Only stocks meeting all key-criteria of the fact-based investment system should be considered as buy candidates.

PICTURED: The S&P 500 Index remains below its 200-day moving average (DMA) line. Of the 3 major indices only the Dow is in "healthy shape" above its 200 DMA line. 

U.S. equities finished lower in volatile trading Monday as Wall Street digested San Francisco Federal Reserve (Fed) President Mary Daly’s remarks. She expressed concern over the potential for overtightening, saying it could be "unnecessarily painful" for the economy. However, she reaffirmed the central bank will need to continue to raise rates to curb inflation. Also pressuring sentiment was a surge of COVID-19 cases and restrictions in China.

On the data front, the Chicago Fed’s economic activity index came in lower than expected in October to slip into negative territory, indicating below-trend growth. In corporate news, shares of Walt Disney Co (DIS +6.30%) rose after announcing former Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Bob Iger will be reappointed to the position, replacing Bob Chapek.

Treasuries were little changed, with the benchmark 10-year note climbing one basis points (0.01%) to 3.83%, while the 30-year bond dipped two basis points (0.02%) to 3.90%. The two-year note finished up two basis points (0.02%) to 4.55%. In commodities, West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude fell 0.4% to $79.73/barrel amid ongoing global demand concerns due to China’s surge in COVID-19 cases. The benchmark pared losses after Saudi Arabia denied a report it is planning to discuss an increase in oil production at the December meeting of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and their allies (OPEC+). The U.S. Dollar Index climbed 0.8%, further pressuring commodity prices.

Perched Near High Still Awaiting Technical Breakout

Enphase Energy Inc (ENPH -$3.84 or -1.23% to $308.10) recently has been challenging its 52-week high, still perched within striking distance of its pivot point. It faces no resistance due to overhead supply up to the $324 level. Disciplined investors might still be watching for a convincing technical breakout to confirm the presence of fresh institutional buying demand. Its 50-day moving average (DMA) line ($283) defines near-term support above the recent low ($262.60 on 11/07/22). 

Fundamentals remain strong. It was last shown with an annotated graph on 10/28/22 under the headline, "Enphase Energy Rebound Above 50-Day Moving Average Helped Outlook". It has an Earnings Per Share Rating of 99. It reported Sep '22 quarterly earnings +108% on +81% sales revenues versus the year ago period, continuing its strong earnings history above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). It has a strong annual earnings (A criteria) history since FY '18 after years of losses.

The company hails from the Energy-Solar group which is currently ranked 2nd of the 197 Industry Groups (L criteria). The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 1,068 in Dec '20 to 2,116 in Sep '22, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. Its current Up/Down Volume Ratio of 0.9 is an unbiased indication its shares have been under slight distributional pressure over the past 50 days.
