G - Sputtering today near its prior low ($251.58 on 10/12/16) where a violation may raise greater concerns. Its 50 DMA line acted as resistance following a volume-driven loss on 11/14/16 triggering a technical sell signal. A rebound above its 50 DMA line ($262) is needed for its outlook to improve. Reported earnings +16% on +8% sales revenues for the Sep '16 quarter, below the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria), raising fundamental concerns. See the latest FSU analysis for more details and a an annotated graph.
