Major Indices End Mixed Again With Light Summer Volume Totals

The major averages finished mixed again on Tuesday. The volume totals reported were also mixed, slightly higher on the NYSE and slightly lower on the Nasdaq exchange versus the prior session totals. Advancing issues led decliners by about a 4-3 ratio on the NYSE and by about a 3-2 ratio on the Nasdaq exchange. The total number of new 52-week highs led new 52-week lows on the NYSE on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 25 high-ranked companies from the CANSLIM.net Leaders List made new 52-week highs and appeared on the CANSLIM.net BreakOuts Page, down from the prior session total of 27 stocks. There were gains for 12 of the 21 high-ranked companies currently included on the Featured Stocks Page.

 

Investors digested mixed economic data ahead of Fed Chairman Bernanke's speech on Friday. Before the open, a report showed home prices in 20 U.S. cities rose in June, suggesting the housing market might be starting to recover. Japan lowered its growth forecast and Spain's economy contracted further in the second quarter. Stocks extended losses after a report showed U.S. consumer confidence declined in August to a nine month low.. An earlier report showed home prices rose for second consecutive month in June. 

Energy stocks advanced with refiner Phillips 66 (PSX +2.17%) up amid concerns over Hurricane Isaac disrupting production in the Gulf of Mexico. The materials were the worst performing group. Shares of coal producer CONSOL Energy Inc (CNX -1.86%) fell.  Industrials also weighed on the market as Deere & Co (DE -1.94%) was among the influential decliners.

Financials also sputtered while shares of Capital One (COF -0.28%) edged lower after a federal judge denied the company's efforts to block lawsuits over payment-protection products on credit cards. Consumer staples were among the best performing groups with H.J. Heinz Co (HNZ +1.68%) edging higher after reporting positive preliminary first quarter results, and Tyson Foods Inc (TSN +4.55%) posting a big gain. Shares of Nike (NKE +2.53%) were up on analyst comments the company gained market share during the back-to-school season. Shares of PVH Corp (PVH +4.84%) rallied after the owner of Calvin Klein raised its full-year profit forecast.

The 10-year note was up 1/8 of a point to yield 1.64%.

In terms of the M criteria, the major indices recently have been in a confirmed rally coupled with an expansion in leadership (stocks hitting new 52-week highs).

Holding Ground Following Recent News Driven Gap Up

Often, when a leading stock is breaking of a solid base it is highlighted in CANSLIM.net's Mid-Day Breakouts Report. The most relevant factors are noted in the report which alerts prudent CANSLIM oriented investors. After doing any necessary backup research, the investor is prepared to act after the stock triggers a technical buy signal (breaks above its pivot point on more than +50% average turnover) but before it gets too extended from a sound base. Disciplined investors know to buy as near as possible to the pivot point and avoid chasing stocks after they have rallied more than +5% above their pivot point. It is crucial to always limit losses whenever any stock heads the wrong direction, and disciplined investors sell if a struggling stock ever falls more than -7% from their purchase price.

Watson Pharmaceuticals (WPI +$0.28 or +0.34% to $82.93) has been holding its ground since its 8/24/12 gap up and solid gain above its pivot point backed by +143% above average volume triggered a technical buy signal. It rallied from a very tight trading range where volume totals had cooled for several weeks. It was highlighted in yellow in the 8/24/12 mid-day report with a pivot point based on its 7/26/12 high plus 10 cents. The considerable gain with above average volume followed news that its generic Lidoderm(R) received FDA approval, an encouraging development concerning the N criteria.

It reported earnings +41% on +25% sales revenues for the Jun '12 quarter. However, the sequential comparisons show recent deceleration in sales and earning growth rate, which is a small concern. The 5/09/12 mid-day report had previously noted - "Its improved fundamentals make it a worthy candidate for investors' watchlists. Sales revenues showed impressive acceleration while the 3 latest quarterly comparisons through Mar '12 showed earnings increases above the +25% guideline satisfying the C criteria. It also has maintained a strong annual earnings (A criteria) history."  The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 1,015 in Mar '12 to 1,067 in Jun '12, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. Its current Up/Down Volume Ratio of 1.8 is also an unbiased indication its shares have been under accumulation over the past 50 days.


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.

Today marked its 7th consecutive loss and it will be dropped from the Featured stocks list tonight due to weak action. A rebound above its 50 DMA line is needed for its technical stance and outlook to improve, and a subsequent rally above its August high would also complete a bullish "double bottom" pattern.

Fell sharply in the late afternoon and violated its 200 DMA line with a considerable loss on very heavy volume nearly 15 times average. It will be dropped from the Featured Stocks list tonight due to poor technical action. A rebound above its 50 DMA line is needed for its outlook to improve.

Y - Touched another new 52-week high today then reversed into the red. On the prior session it gapped up and posted a volume-driven gain, however it did not finish above the pivot point cited based on its 8/01/12 high plus 10 cents. A volume-driven gain and strong close above its pivot point may trigger technical buy signal. See the latest FSU analysis for more details and an annotated graph.

G - The longer it lingers below its 50 DMA line the worse its outlook gets following recent technical sell signals. Prior low ($52.41 on 7/23/12) defines a near-term support level where any further deterioration would raise more serious concerns.
