Major Averages Rose With Less Leadership

The three major averages posted gains again on Thursday's session. The volume totals were mixed, slightly higher on the NYSE and slightly lower on the Nasdaq exchange versus the prior session totals. Breadthn was positive as advancers led decliners by nearly 3-1 on the NYSE and by 2-1 on the Nasdaq exchange. The total number of new 52-week highs still solidly outnumbered new 52-week lows on the NYSE on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 32 high-ranked companies from the CANSLIM.net Leaders List that made new 52-week highs and appeared on the CANSLIM.net BreakOuts Page, less than half the prior session total of 69 stocks. However, there were gains for 20 of the 23 high-ranked companies currently included on the Featured Stocks Page, a noticeably more positive bias than the broader market.

 

The S&P 500 Index advanced for the fourth-straight session while stocks gained ground amid euro zone optimism. In Europe, the ECB left interest rates unchanged and its president said he stands ready to start the bond-buying program. On our shores, the Fed's policy minutes showed its members were in broad agreement to launch a third round of quantitative easing and vowed to maintain stimulus as long as inflation is under control.

Economic data was overlooked. Jobless claims rose last week from a two-month low and August factory orders posted the largest decline since January 2009. Friday's jobs report is now in focus with non-farm payrolls expected to increase by 115,000 in September and the unemployment is anticipated to tick higher to 8.2%.

Overall, nearly all sectors gained ground. A rebound in commodity prices helped material stocks outperform including Alcoa Inc (AA +3.30%). Financials also staged a rally as Bank of America Corp (BAC +3.29%) rose.

In fixed-income, Treasuries fell for the first time in four days with the 10-year note down 15/32 to 1.67%.

See the stocks highlighted on the Featured Stocks page for the most actionable ideal high-ranked buy candidates under the fact-based investment system's guidelines. The M criteria is still favorable as the major indices have maintained their previously confirmed rally with a healthy level of leadership (stocks hitting new 52-week highs).

PICTURED: The Dow Jones Industrial Average is consolidating -0.56% off its 52-week high, above prior highs and well above its 50-day moving average (DMA) line. It is up +11.12% year-to-date.

Financial, Tech, and Commodity-Linked Groups Rose

Financial shares had a positive influence on the major averages as the Broker/Dealer Index ($XBD +1.76%) and Bank Index ($BKX +1.96%) tallied gains. Commodity-linked groups also rose as the Gold & Silver Index ($XAU +2.91%), Integrated Oil Index ($XOI +1.11%), and Oil Services Index ($OSX +1.38%) tallied gains. The Healthcare Index ($HMO +0.77%) and the Retail Index ($RLX +0.86%) added to the positive bias. The Networking Index ($NWX +0.15%) edged higher, and the Biotechnology Index ($BTK +0.36%), Semiconductor Index ($SOX +0.65%), and Internet Index ($IIX +0.87%) also posted gains of less than +1%    

Charts courtesy www.stockcharts.com

PICTURED: The Semiconductor Index ($SOX +0.65%) is consolidating below its 50-day and 200-day moving  (DMA) lines, and it is -13.78% off its 52-week high hit in March.

Distributional Pressure Violated Upward Trendline

Rentech Nitrogen Ptnr LP (RNF -$0.33 or -.92% to $35.59) suffered a 3rd consecutive loss with above average volume today. As previously noted, its volume-driven loss on the prior session violated an upward trendline defining near-term chart support in the $37 area which may be considered an early sell signal. The next important support comes into play at its 50-day moving average (DMA) line (now $34.30) where a subsequent violation may trigger a more serious technical sell signal. 

Its last appearance in this FSU section was on 8/31/12 with an annotated graph under the headline, "Following Breakout Volume Totals Have Cooled While Holding Its Ground".  It went on to higher territory, but started encountering distributional pressure and was hit by losses on higher volume in recent weeks. Its Accumulation/Distribution Rating has slumped to a D+ (see red circle) from a B rating when it was shown in this FSU section on 8/31/12. More time is needed, however, for it to possibly form a new base or secondary buy point. Patient investors may watch for it to first make a successful test of its 50 DMA or 10-week moving average (WMA) line and bounce back up. And example of this type of secondary buy point was shown in this FSU section yesterday (read here).

RNF is extended from its prior base. On 8/07/12 it triggered a technical buy signal with its considerable gain backed by +266% above average volume as it rallied above its pivot point into new high territory. It traded as much as +35.4% higher within less than 2 months afterward.

The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 42 in Dec '11 to 47 as of Jun '12, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. Its current Up/Down Volume Ratio of 1.4 is also an unbiased indication that its shares have been under accumulation over the past 50 days.
