Major Indices Rose Further With Healthy Leadership

The major indices ended near their session highs at Monday's closing bell with gains ranging from +0.5% to +1.1%. Volume was reported lighter than the prior session on the NYSE and higher on the Nasdaq exchange. Breadth was positive as advancers led decliners by more than a 3-2 margin on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 63 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, up from the total of 50 on the prior session. New 52-week highs outnumbered new 52-week lows on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. The major indices are in a confirmed uptrend (M criteria). New buying efforts should be only made in stocks fitting all key criteria of the fact-based investment system.
