Breadth, Volume, and Leadership Improved Behind Indices' Gains
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
Stocks finished higher on Tuesday. The Dow was up 75 points to 18161. The S&P 500 added 13 points to 2139 and the Nasdaq Composite gained 44 points to 5243. The reported volume totals were higher than the prior session on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange, hinting at an increase in institutional buying demand. Advancers led decliners by 3-1 on the NYSE and 9-5 on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 17 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that made new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, versus 7 on the prior session. New 52-week highs outnumbered new 52-week lows on the NYSE, but again new 52-week lows outnumbered new 52-week highs on the Nasdaq exchange. PICTURED: The Dow Jones Industrial Average recently met resistance when trying to rebound above its 50-day moving average (DMA) line.
Recent deterioration in the charts of the major averages (M criteria) and evaporating leadership (fewer stocks hitting new highs) are signs that the uptrend is under pressure. The S&P 500 Index and the Dow Jones Industrial Average met resistance near their respective 50 DMA lines and abruptly retreated near prior lows. The Featured Stocks Page lists noteworthy high-ranked leaders.
The major averages advanced on the session amid optimistic inflation data and strong corporate earnings releases. On the data front, a gauge of inflation showed that consumer prices rose at the fastest pace in five months, increasing 0.3% in September. In earnings, Goldman Sachs (GS +2.15%) rose as the investment bank’s quarterly profit rose 47% on strong trading results. UnitedHealth Group (UNH +6.90%) rose after the insurer raised its full-year outlook.
All 11 sectors in the S&P 500 finished in positive territory with Health Care shares pacing the gains. In the consumer space, Netflix (NFLX +19.03%) rallied as the company signed up 3.5 million subscribers in the third-quarter, 50% more than analyst expectations. Big banks caught a boost from the Goldman Sachs report with Morgan Stanley (MS +1.67%) also rising. In Tech, shares of International Business Machines Corp (IBM -2.62%) were lower after revenue fell for the 18th consecutive quarter. Johnson & Johnson (JNJ -2.60%) fell amid reports Pfizer (PFE +0.58%) plans to sell its bio-similar version of the company’s blockbuster drug Remicade.
Treasuries advanced along the curve with the benchmark 10-year note up 5/32 to yield 1.74%. In commodities, NYMEX WTI crude added 0.8% to $50.32/barrel. COMEX gold gained 0.5% to $1260.80/ounce. |

Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
Paycom Software Inc (PAYC +$0.19 or +0.38% to $50.01) was highlighted in yellow in the earlier mid-day report with new pivot point cited based on its 9/06/16 high plus 10 cents.

Technically, PAYC has been consolidating near its 50-day moving average (DMA) line after finding support near prior highs in the $46 area. It has earned a 99 Earnings Per Share Rating, the highest possible rank. It reported earnings +110% on +61% sales revenues for the Jun '16 quarter, and prior quarterly earnings were above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria).
The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 286 in Mar '16 to 334 in Sep '16, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria.

Y - Quietly consolidating near its 50 DMA line ($44.37) and prior low ($43.50 on 9/12/16) which define near term support where violations would raise concerns and trigger technical sell signals. Subsequent volume-driven gains for new highs may trigger a new (or add-on) technical buy signal.
