Mixed Week for Major Averages Concludes Quietly

For the week the major averages finished mixed with the Dow Jones Industrial Average down -1.13%, the S&P 500 Index down -0.5%, meanwhile, the Nasdaq Composite Index rose +0.4%. On Friday the major averages rebounded from trading in the red to finish the session higher. The volume totals were lighter on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange versus the prior session totals.  Breadth was positive as advancing issues led decliners by more than 2-1 on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. The total number of stocks hitting new 52-week highs increased and new highs solidly outnumbered new 52-week lows on both major exchanges. There were 33 high-ranked companies from the CANSLIM.net Leaders List that made new 52-week highs and appeared on the CANSLIM.net BreakOuts Page, up from the prior session total of 26 stocks. The session concluded with gains for 18 of the 34 high-ranked companies currently included on the Featured Stocks Page.

  

Both Fed Chairman Bernanke and Treasury Secretary Geithner testified on Europe's economic crisis this week, but neither made any riveting remark. As such, their comments did nothing to swing stocks or prompt a shift in sentiment. Markets ended Friday's session in the green as investors overlooked disappointing housing data. Stocks were under pressure at the opening bell after new home sales in the U.S. unexpectedly fell -1.6% in February. Rising crude oil prices led to a rally in the energy sector. Reports showed that U.S. imposed sanctions will reduce Iranian crude exports by -14% in March. Homebuilders retreated following the disappointing new home sales report. 

Notable corporate announcements this week include better-than-expected earnings from Accenture Plc (ACN +2.14%), Nike Inc (NKE -3.22%), FedEx Corp (FDX -0.13%), Discover Financial Co (DFS +4.12%), and Oracle Corp (ORCL -0.28%). All announced upside earnings surprises this week!

Settling at $106.86 per barrel, oil prices gained +1.4% on Friday, but fell -0.2% for the week. Treasuries were higher along the curve with the benchmark 10-year note up 3/8 of a point to yield 2.23%.

The major averages' (M criteria) uptrend has been underpinned by widespread leadership (stocks making new 52-week highs) as they have continued the prior rally. Disciplined investors may have a bias toward accumulating stocks meeting all key criteria of the fact-based system. As always, avoid chasing stocks extended too far from sound base patterns and be sure to limit losses if ever any stock falls more than -7% from your purchase price.

Gain for New High on +88% Above Average Volume Clears 6 Month Base

Accenture, Ltd. (ACN +$1.36 or +2.14% to $64.88) rallied into new all-time high territory this week while overcoming a bit of mild distributional pressure. Technically it is a bit extended after breaking out from an earlier base on 3/05/12, yet its color code was changed to yellow in the mid-day report (read here) with a pivot point cited based on its 7/07/11 high plus 10 cents. Its convincing finish with volume-driven gain above the pivot point was backed by +88% above average volume on Friday  clinched a new (or add-on) technical buy signal.

It reported earnings +29% on +12% sales revenues for the quarter ended February 29, 2012 versus the year ago period. In 3 of the 4 most recent quarterly comparisons it showed encouraging earnings increases above the +25% minimum guideline, however sales revenues increases have shown recent deceleration, up +23%, +17%, and +12% in the latest period. Its annual earnings (A criteria) growth history has been good. Increasing ownership by top-rated funds (I criteria) is reassuring, however it is already heavily owned by the institutional crowd. The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 1,569 in Mar '11 to 1.914 in Dec '11, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria.


Color Codes Explained :
Y - Better candidates highlighted by our staff of experts.
G - Previously featured in past reports as yellow but may no longer be buyable under the guidelines.

Found support at its 50 DMA line on the last pullback, meanwhile any damaging violation would raise concerns and trigger technical sell signals. Last week it barely traded above its all-time high ($77.39 in Aug '08).

G - ISRG may produce more climactic gains, however it is extended from any sound base pattern, and the December '11 quarterly earnings increased by just below the borderline +25% minimum guideline for ideal buy candidates. Rather than compromise, disciplined investors may sooner consider another Featured Stock when a fresh technical buy signal occurs.

Y - Volume totals have been cooling while it is still hovering near its all-time high, stubbornly holding its ground. After forming an advanced "3-weeks tight" base a new pivot point was cited based on its 2/29/12 high plus 10 cents while its color code was changed to yellow. Volume-driven gains may trigger a new (or add-on) technical buy signal, meanwhile its prior highs in the $381-384 area define support to watch on pullbacks along with its 50 DMA line.

Y - Finished near the session low today with a loss on lighter but still above average volume. The new pivot point cited in the 3/22/12 mid-day report is based on its 52-week high plus 10 cents after a 12-week base. It was previously noted - "Disciplined investors will watch for a volume-driven gain above the pivot to confirm a technical buy signal before taking any action. Found support well above its 200 DMA line and it has now rebounded to within -4.2% of its 52-week high. Fundamentals remain strong since it was dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 1/11/12. The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 128 in Mar '11 to 185 in Dec '11, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria."

G - Down today with higher volume, yet it is up from the session's early lows following a gap down after an analyst downgrade. It recently had wedged up to a new 52-week high with gains lacking great volume conviction, and the last consolidation was noted as a little short of the 5-week minimum length for it to be considered a new flat base pattern. Its 50 DMA line coincides with the prior low in the $49 area, defining an important near-term support level to watch.

Y - Holding its ground today. Featured in yellow in the prior mid-day report with pivot point cited based on its 52-week high plus 10 cents after a 5-week flat base pattern. It found support above its 50 DMA line while consolidating since hitting its old high on 2/22/12, and its considerable gap up gain with more than 4 times average volume helped it hit a new 52-week high and trigger a technical buy signal. Reported earnings +80% on +45% sales revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 versus the year ago period. Its 3 latest quarterly comparisons showed strong earnings increases well above the +25% minimum guideline while sales revenues showed impressive acceleration. It also has a good annual earnings (A criteria). See the latest FSU analysis for more details and a new annotated graph.

A new pivot point was not cited, yet it has built a base-on-base pattern while consolidating above prior highs in the $17 area and above its 50 DMA line defining support to watch on pullbacks.

Y - Color code is changed to yellow after a brief consolidation in a tight range with mostly light volume. No new pivot point is cited, however they teach in the Certification that a stock may be bought from its first successful test of support at the 10-week moving average (WMA) up to +5% above the latest high following an earlier technical breakout. In this case that could be $88.65 on 2/28/12 plus another 5%, however the further one chases any stock above its pivot point the greater the chances are than an ordinary pullback may necessitate selling - as disciplined investors know to always limit losses if ever any stock falls more than 7% from their purchase price! Its 50 DMA line defines support to watch on pullbacks.
