The major averages pared losses to finish modestly lower on Monday. The Dow fell 42 points to 17,071. The S&P 500 lost 5 points at 1,977. The NASDAQ declined 6 points to 4,505. The S&P 500 Index and Nasdaq Composite Index both rebounded to finish above their respective 50-day moving average (DMA) lines after undercutting the 50 DMA line intra-day.  The volume totals were reported higher than the prior session totals on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange, a sign of selling pressure from large institutional investors. Breadth was negative as decliners led advances by a 3-2 margin on the NYSE and 5-4 on the NASDAQ exchange. There were 14 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 9 stocks. New 52-week lows outnumbered new 52-week highs on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. There were gains for 3 of the 11 high-ranked companies currently included on the Featured Stocks Page. Distributional action raised concerns while leadership (stocks hitting new 52-week highs) waned and a deteriorating market (M criteria) environment was noted last week.  Remember that the fact-based investment system prompts disciplined investors to reduce market exposure by selling any faltering stocks during rough market periods.

The Gold & Silver Index ($XAU -1.28%) also fell. The Retail Index ($RLX -0.33%) edged lower. Technology-related groups showed little decisiveness as the Networking Index ($NWX -0.13%) edged lower and the Semiconductor Index ($SOX +0.14%) and Biotechnology Index ($BTK +0.21%) posted small gains.
