Major Averages Show Better Conviction on Day 2 of Rally Effort

The major stock averages showed better conviction behind Tuesday's gains as advancing issues beat decliners by more than 4-1 on the NYSE and by more than 3-1 on the Nasdaq exchange. The volume total reported on the NYSE was higher, but lower volume reported on the Nasdaq exchange made it clear that institutional investors were still not aggressively buying stocks after the recent patch of damaging distributional losses. New 52-week highs outnumbered new 52-week lows on the NYSE for the first time in 8 sessions, but on the Nasdaq new lows still easily outnumbered new highs. There were 11 high-ranked companies from the CANSLIM.net Leaders List made new 52-week highs and appeared on the CANSLIM.net BreakOuts Page, up a notch from 10 on the prior session.  There were 15 gainers out of the 17 of the high-ranked leaders currently included on the Featured Stocks Page.

 

U.S. retail sales declined for the first time in 11 months but less than expected in May and China's industrial production surpassed forecasts. May retail sales fell 0.2%, less than expectations for a decline of 0.5%. Excluding autos, retail sales gained 0.3%. A separate report showed wholesale costs in the U.S. rose more than forecast in May, led by higher prices for fuel and the fastest rise in 30 years for apparel and textiles.

A private survey of small business sentiment released earlier this morning was not encouraging. The index hit an eight month low. More small businesses view economic conditions as worse in the next six months, indicating sentiment may stay low as an economic slowdown unfolds.

Chevron Corp (CVX +1.69%) and other energy shares rose as oil jumped more than $2 a barrel. Industrial stocks like Caterpillar Inc (CAT +2.54%) also led a broad-based advance. Apple Inc (AAPL +1.79%) climbed as the company agreed to pay an undisclosed sum to Nokia (NOK +2.45%) to settle all patent claims. Best Buy Co Inc (BBY +4.55%) jumped after posting profits that beat expectations. JC Penney Company Inc (JCP +17.5%) rallied after naming the retail head at Apple as its new chief executive.

Recent weak action was noted as the market (M criteria) correction caused more worrisome technical damage, reminding investors to raise cash and reduce exposure until a new confirmed rally with follow-through day (FTD) occurs. The June 2011 issue of CANSLIM.net News will be released soon!

PICTURED: The Dow Jones Industrial Average rallied back above 12,000 as the market welcomed favorable economic reports. Remember that a proper follow-through day (FTD) is considered most ideal (based on historic studies) if it occurs between Day 4 and Day 7 of a new rally attempt. There should be an expansion in leadership (stocks hitting new highs) coupled with a solid gain from at least one of the major averages on higher volume than the prior session.

Tech, Energy, Retail, and Defensive Groups Bounce

The Broker/Dealer Index ($XBD +1.40%) outpaced the Bank Index ($BKX +0.57%), and the Retail Index ($RLX +2.28%) was also among Tuesday's standout gainers. The Networking Index ($NWX +2.27%) and Semiconductor Index ($SOX +1.92%) led a rebound in the tech sector while the Internet Index ($IIX +1.28%) and Biotechnology Index ($BTK +0.64%) followed with smaller gains. Energy-related shares rose and gave the Integrated Oil Index ($XOI +2.10%) and Oil Services Index ($OSX +2.53%) both a boost,  Strength in defensive shares also led to solid gains for the Healthcare Index ($HMO +2.62%) and the Gold & Silver Index ($XAU +1.66%).

Charts courtesy www.stockcharts.com

PICTURED: The Oil Services Index's ($OSX +2.53%) recent losses nearly tested its 200-day moving average (DMA) line.

Gains Lacking Volume Following 50 DMA Violation

Rackspace Hosting Inc (RAX +$0.84 or +2.08% to $41.14) has posted small gains that have lacked volume conviction following last week's 50-day moving average (DMA) line violation. A subsequent breach of its recent chart low ($38.84 on 5/12/11) would trigger a more worrisome technical sell signal. Since its last appearance in this FSU section on 5/13/11 under the headline, "Positive Reversal Indicated Prompt Support Near Prior Resistance", it found support and continued to make a stand after briefly undercutting prior highs near $40. However, volume was slightly above average as damaging losses sent it below its 50-day moving average (DMA) line again last week. The M criteria also is a concern for now while the market is in a correction, however RAX still may be worthy of remaining on investors watch lists.  Subsequent gains above its 50 DMA line would help its outlook improve, and a follow-through-day from at least one of the major averages could eventually signal that another meaningful leg up is more likely.

More damaging losses would raise greater concerns, meanwhile it has not formed a sound new base. The past 4 quarterly earnings comparisons showed better than +25% increases. Its annual earnings history (A criteria) since trading began in 2008 has been good. Increasing institutional ownership (I criteria) is a reassuring sign, as the number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 317 in Mar '10 to 480 in Mar '11. RAX traded up as much as +103.5% within 8 months of when it was featured in yellow in the 9/21/10 mid-day report (read here) when noted - "Trading pennies from its 52-week high, with no overhead supply remaining to hinder its progress. A solid gain on the prior session reconfirmed a recent technical breakout above prior chart highs. Subsequent gains into new high territory with volume conviction could signal the beginning of a meaningful price advance."

Y - Consolidating -6.4% off its 52-week high. Color code is changed to yellow with new pivot point cited following a choppy cup-with-handle base. Recent lows and its 50 DMA line define important nearby chart support. The M criteria argues against new buying efforts without a FTD from at least one of the major averages as confirmation of a new rally. See the latest FSU analysis for more details and a new annotated graph.

Dear Ken,

Is the 50 DMA that is referenced in your notes based on the daily chart?  e.g. HS "Today's loss has it testing its 50 DMA line. That important short-term average defines chart support to watch where a violation would trigger a technical sell signal".
 
Enjoy your service, thanks!

Dear Robert,

Thanks for the feedback concerning the service. Yes, the 50-day moving average (DMA) line is the red line on the individual stocks' annotated daily graphs, whereas the weekly charts actually show a red line for the 10-week moving average.  There is a slight difference between adding up the past 50 days' closing prices and dividing the sum by 50, versus adding up the past 10 weeks' closes and dividing the sum by 10. Either way, a stock is considered to be in healthy shape when trading above those short-term averages, and the averages are on the rise. When a stock is below those short-term averages it is considered to be more vulnerable to greater losses, and by the time the short term averages are sloping downward the stock has usually been struggling for a while.
 
I hope this answer is helpful to you. Feel free get in touch with me directly if there are any other questions or concerns regarding the service.

Best regards,
