Major Indices Were Mixed and Little Changed

15 of the 30 Dow components were up and 15 were down while the major indices ended mixed and little changed  The volume totals were mixed, lighter than the prior session on the NYSE and higher on the Nasdaq exchange. Advancers and decliners were evenly mixed on the NYSE and the Nasdaq exchange. There were 60 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, versus the total of 48 on the prior session. New 52-week lows totals still solidly outnumbered new 52-week highs on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. The major indices recently signaled a new confirmed uptrend for the market (M criteria). New buying efforts should be only made in stocks fitting all key criteria of the fact-based investment system.

PICTURED: The Dow Jones Industrial Average is making further technical progress since rebounding above its 50-day and 200-day moving average (DMA) lines.

The energy sector (+0.7%) saw the largest gain, rising alongside oil ($78.34/bbl, +1.13, +1.5%). Health care (+0.6%) and consumer staples (+0.4%) followed. Meanwhile, utilities (-1.2%), real estate (-0.8%), and the information technology (-0.5%) sectors were worst performers. Boeing (BA +4.01%) was a standout winner on news that it received multiple orders at the Dubai Airshow and a Bloomberg report that China is considering ending its freeze of Boeing with a new 737 Max deal.

The 2-yr note yield settled one basis point lower at 5.04%. The 10-yr note yield settled unchanged. Notably, Treasuries did not react much to the report from Moody's after Friday's close that it had downgraded the U.S. credit outlook to negative from stable based in part on concerns about partisan politics and the potential for budget deficits that remain very large. Moody's, did not downgrade its U.S. credit rating, which remains AAA.  The release of the October Consumer Price Index is due on Tuesday.

Earnings New Due While Perched Near Prior High

Palo Alto Networks (PANW +$2.12 or +0.84% to $255.63) was highlighted in yellow in the earlier mid-day report (read here) with a new pivot point cited based on its 10/13/23 high after a short flat base. It rebounded further above its 50-day moving average DMA line ($244) toward the prior high with today's 3rd consecutive gain. Subsequent gains above the pivot point backed by at least +40% above average volume are needed to trigger a proper technical buy signal.

Keep in mind it is due to report Oct '23 quarterly results on 11/15/23. Volume and volatility often increase near earnings news. Fundamentals have been strong through the Jul '23 quarter with earnings +80% on +26% sales revenues versus the year-ago period. PANW was last shown in great detail on 7/13/23 with an annotated graph under the headline, "Volume Cooling While Hovering Near High". It showed resilience since dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 8/09/23.

It has a 98 Earnings Per Share Rating. It has shown bullish action after reporting Apr '23 quarterly earnings +83% on +24% sales revenues versus the year-ago period. Prior quarterly comparisons were above the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria). It had a downturn in FY '20 earnings like many companies during the pandemic but has continued posting strong annual earnings (A criteria) since.

PANW's share price was impacted by a 3:1 split on 9/14/22 and it now has a supply (S criteria) of 305.9 million shares outstanding. The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 892 in Jun '17 to 3,095 in Sep '23, a very reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. Its current Up/Down Volume Ratio of 1.2 is an unbiased indication that over the past 50 days it has been under slight accumulation. It has an A Timeliness Rating and a C Sponsorship Rating.
