Major Averages Rally Further Into Record High Ground
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
The volume totals were reported higher than the prior session totals on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange indicating an increase in institutional buying interest. Breadth was positive as advancers led decliners by nearly 2-1 on the NYSE and 7-5 on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 99 high-ranked companies from the CANSLIM.net Leaders List making new 52-week highs and appearing on the CANSLIM.net BreakOuts Page, up from the prior session total of 90 stocks. New 52-week highs totals expanded and solidly outnumbered new 52-week lows on both the NYSE and the Nasdaq exchange. There were gains for 10 of the 13 high-ranked companies currently included on the Featured Stocks Page.
The major averages traded higher into new high territory with gains attributed to Wednesday's generally positive earnings. Shares of Whole Foods (WFM +10.12%) rallied after quarterly results beat estimates and the grocer increased its full-year guidance. Video game maker Electronic Arts Inc (EA +17.11% ) spiked higher as profits topped analyst projections. While there were no major U.S. economic releases, the market did receive encouraging data from Asia and Europe. China reported exports rose more than expected in April while Germany's industrial production increased for a second straight month in March.
Materials were among the best performing groups in the session. Cliffs Natural Resources (CLF +8.53% ) extended its winning streak to a fourth day. Freeport McMoRan Copper & Gold Inc (FCX +2.66%) shares were higher as metal prices advanced. Tech was higher with Cognizant Technology Solutions Corp (CTSH +5.04%) and Yahoo! Inc (YHOO +1.30%) posting gains. Utilities were the worst performing group with American Electric Power Co Inc (AEP -0.91%) down.
The market (M criteria) saw an expansion in leadership (stocks hitting new 52-week highs) that reassured investors a confirmed uptrend is at hand. Watch for new stocks featured in the CANSLIM.net Mid-Day BreakOuts Report. Action-worthy leaders are covered on an ongoing basis with the latest notes and additional resource links included on the Featured Stocks Page. Watch for an announcement via email concerning the next WEBCAST. The webcast will also be available via an updated link highlighted at the top of the Premium Member Homepage.
PICTURED: The Nasdaq Composite Index climbed to its best level in 12 years and hit a new 2013 high after tallying 12 gains in the span of 14 sessions. The indices' rally to new highs confirmed the market's uptrend which means odds are favorable for new buying efforts in stocks meeting all of the fact-based investment system's key criteria.

Defensive, Retail, Financial, and Tech Groups Posted Gains
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
Defensive groups were Wednesday's best gainers as the Gold & Silver Index ($XAU +5.05%) outpaced the Healthcare Index ($HMO +1.70%). The Retail Index ($RLX +0.51%) and financial groups also were positive influences on the major averages as the Bank Index ($BKX +0.81%) and the Broker/Dealer Index ($XBD +0.51%) rose. The Networking Index ($NWX +1.25%) and the Semiconductor Index ($SOX +1.29%) led the tech sector higher while the Internet Index ($IIX +0.42%) and the Biotechnology Index ($BTK +0.50%) posted smaller gains. The Oil Services Index ($OSX +0.46%) also had a positive bias while the Integrated Oil Index ($XOI +0.04%) ended flat.
Charts courtesy www.stockcharts.com
PICTURED: The Gold & Silver Index ($XAU +5.05%) was a standout gainer while rebounding from its 2013 lows, yet it remains well below its 50-day and 200-day moving average (DMA) lines.

5th Consecutive Gain And Best Ever Finish
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
FleetCor Technologies, Inc. (FLT +$0.67 or +0.82% to $82.84) finished at its best-ever close after a 5th consecutive gain, getting more extended from any sound base pattern. It reported earnings +50% on +32% sales for the Mar '13 quarter, marking its 5th consecutive quarterly comparison with earnings above the +25% guideline (C criteria). Its 50-day moving average (DMA) line acted as support after last shown in this FSU section on 4/15/13 with an annotated graph under the headline, "Distributional Action Followed Latest Breakout After Little Progress". Any subsequent violations of the 50 DMA line or recent low ($70.09) would raise serious concerns and trigger worrisome technical sell signals.
The company completed another Secondary Offering on 3/08/13 after a streak of volume-driven gains into new high territory. On 3/14/12, 6/11/12, and 11/29/12 it priced Secondary Offerings and it was previously noted, "Such offerings often are a short-term hindrance to upward price progress yet typically result in broader institutional ownership interest."
The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 193 in Mar '12 to 340 in Mar '13, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. Its current Up/Down Volume Ratio of 1.7 is also an unbiased indication that its shares have been under accumulation over the past 50 days. The company hails from the Finance - Credit Card Payment Processing group which currently has a mediocre 48 Group Relative Strength Rating, however impressive strength and leadership from a couple of other firms in the same industry group is considered sufficient reassurance concerning the L criteria.

Y - Pulling back today with volume running at an above average pace. May spend more time basing as it was noted that it faces resistance due to overhead supply up through the $16 level. Found encouraging support at its 50 DMA line and flashed above average volume behind recent gains while building on a new base. Volume-driven gains above the new pivot point are needed to trigger a new technical buy signal.
