Breadth Negative Yet Major Averages Posted Gains on Light Volume
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
The S&P 500 climbed 0.4%, having gained nearly 5% from its mid-June trough but still remains 19.8% below its January 3 record. The Dow added 69 points, while the Nasdaq Composite advanced 0.4%. Volume totals reported were higher than the prior session on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. Breadth was negative as decliners led advancers by a 4-3 margin on the Nasdaq exchange and by a 3-2 margin on the NYSE. There were 9 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, versus the total of 4 on the prior session. New 52-week lows totals solidly outnumbered new 52-week highs on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. The brief new market uptrend is already under pressure (M criteria). Any sustainable rally requires a healthy crop of leading stocks hitting new highs, but leadership has been very thin.
Chart courtesy of www.stockcharts.comPICTURED: The Dow Jones Industrial Average posted another gain backed by lighter volume. It remains well below its 50-day and 200-day moving average (DMA) lines.
U.S. stocks finished modestly higher on Wednesday as strength in Tech shares helped reverse early session losses. Meanwhile, Treasuries retreated as investors assessed the minutes of the Federal Reserve’s (Fed) June meeting. As expected, the release leaned hawkish as policymakers opted for the largest rate hike since 1994 (0.75%) last month. Officials attributed the move to a hotter-than-expected inflation reading that had come days before the meeting and acknowledged that an “even more restrictive stance” could be warranted if inflation pressures persisted. The yield on the 10-year note spiked 10 basis points (0.10%) to 2.92%, while the yield on the shorter-dated two-year note settled 15 basis points (0.15%) higher at 2.97%. The curve inversion—the phenomena in which short-term rates surpass longer-term yields—has garnered attention around Wall Street, as the scenario has historically preceded recessionary periods.
Economic data heightened prospects of slowing economic growth. A survey from the Institute for Supply Management (ISM) showed U.S. services sector expanded at the slowest pace in over two years. However, the prices paid component declined for a second straight month. Falling commodity prices also supported the narrative of easing inflation pressures. West Texas Intermediate crude slipped 0.9% to $98.58/barrel after yesterday falling below $100/barrel for the first time in nearly two months. Also weighing on oil prices, a gauge of the U.S. dollar extended its advance by 0.5% against a basket of its peers.

Volume-Driven Breakout For Biotech Firm
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
Harmony Biosciences Hldg (HRMY +$2.27 or +4.31% to $54.92) was highlighted in yellow with pivot point cited based on its 6/27/22 high in the earlier mid-day report (read here). It hit a new all-time high (N criteria) with today's gain and close above the pivot point backed by +118% above average volume triggering a technical buy signal.
The high-ranked Medical-Biomed/Biotech firm reported strong sales revenues and earnings increases well above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria) in quarterly comparisons through Mar '22 versus the year ago periods. Its annual earnings history (A criteria) is limited, however it has an 80 Earnings Per Share Rating. It completed its $24 IPO on 8/19/20.
Its small supply of only 236 million shares (S criteria) in the public float can contribute to greater price volatility in the event of institutional buying or selling. The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 208 in Sep '21 to 382 in Jun '22, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. Meanwhile, its current Up/Down Volume Ratio of 1.0 is neutral concerning Accumulation/Distribution over the past 50 days.
