Breadth Positive as Major Indices Rose
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
Stocks finished higher Tuesday. The Dow added 155 points to 24,065 while the S&P 500 climbed 27 points to 2,610. The Nasdaq Composite gained 117 points to 7,023. The volume totals were mixed, lighter than the prior session on the NYSE and higher on the Nasdaq exchange. Breadth was positive as advancers led decliners by almost a 2-1 margin on the NYSE and by more than 2-1 on the Nasdaq exchange. There were only 3 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that made a new 52-week high and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, matching the prior session total. New 52-week highs outnumbered new 52-week lows on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange versus the prior session. The major indices are in a confirmed uptrend after recently noted improvements helped to signal a change in market direction (M criteria) back to a bullish stance. The Featured Stocks Page provides the most timely analysis on high-ranked leaders. Charts used courtesy of www.stockcharts.com
PICTURED: The Nasdaq Composite Index rose and finished above its 50-day moving average (DMA) line on Tuesday. Previously it met prompt resistance at that important short-term average.
The major averages snapped a two-day losing streak amid broad strength in the Tech and Healthcare sectors. News that China’s central bank will boost efforts to foster economic growth also lifted investor sentiment. On the data front, an update on inflation revealed the Producer Price Index (PPI) decreased 0.2% in December. Core PPI, which excludes food and energy, showed wholesale prices rose 2.7% from the same period last year. In a separate release, manufacturing in the New York Fed region expanded at the slowest pace since 2017 in January.
Nine of 11 S&P 500 sectors finished higher. The Communication Services group paced gains with Netflix (NFLX +6.52%) rose after the streaming giant announced its largest ever monthly service charge increase. Health Care also outperformed with shares of UnitedHealth (UNH +3.54%) rose after topping profit and revenue expectations. Technology stocks were also broadly higher with Microsoft (MSFT +2.90%) rose. In other earnings news, JPMorgan Chase & Co (JPM +0.73%) edged higher despite missing profit expectations for the first time in 15 quarters.
Treasuries were mixed with the yield of the benchmark 10-year note advancing one basis point to 2.71%. In commodities, WTI crude added 3.2% to $52.11/barrel. COMEX gold was down 0.2% to $1,288.90/ounce amid a stronger dollar.

Sputtering Below 50-Day Moving Average Again
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
Ubiquiti Networks Inc (UBNT +$1.54 or 1.52% to $102.93) posted a small gain. It slumped back below its 50-day moving average (DMA) line ($103.78) on the prior session hurting its outlook. A prompt rebound is needed for its outlook to improve, Meanwhile, the prior low ($92.08 on 12/24/18) defines the next important support. It was last shown in this FSU section on 1/02/19 with an annotated graph under the headline, "Needs Rebound Above 50-Day Average to Help Outlook". It quickly got extended more than +5% above the prior high and finished strong after highlighted in yellow in the 11/09/18 mid-day report with new pivot point cited based on its 9/25/18 high plus 10 cents (read here). The big gain for a new high with nearly 4 times average volume triggered a technical buy signal. Fundamentals remain strong. Bullish action came after it reported earnings +27% on +15% sales revenues for the Sep '18 quarter, marking its 3rd consecutive quarterly comparison above the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria), helping it better match the fact-based investment system's fundamental guidelines. The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 262 in Dec '17 to 295 in Dec '18, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. Its current Up/Down Volume ratio of 1.2 is an unbiased indication its shares have been under slight accumulation over the past 50 days. Its small supply of only 14.9 million shares (S criteria) in the public float can contribute to greater price volatility in the event of institutional buying or selling. It has earned an A Timeliness Rating and B Sponsorship Rating. It hails from the Telecom - Infrastructure Industry Group which has an A- Group Relative Strength Rating, a reassuring sign concerning the L criteria. After a small downturn in FY '15 its annual earnings (A criteria) growth has been strong. That fundamental shortcoming had a role in limiting its appearances since UBNT was shown in this FSU section on 4/20/12 with an annotated graph under the headline, "Formed a New Ascending Base But Did Not Confirm New Buy Signal".

Y - Volume totals have still been cooling while perched within close striking distance of prior highs. Little resistance remains due to overhead supply up to the $29 level. Its 50 DMA line and recent low define near-term support to watch on pullbacks.
