Major Averages Hit New Record Highs
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
Stocks finished higher on Monday. The Dow was up 88 points to 18956. The S&P 500 added 16 points to 2198 and the Nasdaq Composite gained 47 points to 5368. Volume totals were lighter than the prior session totals on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. Advancers led decliners by 3-1 on the NYSE and by 3-2 on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 98 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that made new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, versus 103 on the prior session. New 52-week highs totals expanded and solidly outnumbered new 52-week lows on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange.
PICTURED: The S&P 500 Index rose for a new record high.
The major averages (M criteria) are in a confirmed uptrend. New buying efforts should only be made in candidates with superior fundamental and technical characteristics. The Featured Stocks Page lists noteworthy high-ranked leaders.
The S&P 500 climbed to an all-time high on Monday as Energy shares rallied and investors digested increased deal activity. NYMEX WTI crude advanced 3.9% to $47.49/barrel, amid renewed optimism that OPEC nations will agree to cut output at a meeting next week in Vienna. On the Fed front, Vice-Chairman Fischer said that fiscal policy can help boost productivity and in turn, lower the burden of supporting the economy on the central bank.
Ten of 11 sectors in the S&P 500 finished in positive territory. In M&A news, LifeLock (LOCK +14.75%) rose after agreeing to a $2.3 billion takeover bid from Symantec Corp (SYMC +3.24%). Headwaters (HW +17.07%) rallied as the company agreed to be acquired by Australian construction firm Boral for $1.8 billion. Shares of Facebook (FB +4.06%) ended higher after the social media giant announced a stock buyback of up to $6 billion in the first quarter of 2017. In earnings, Tyson Foods (TSN -14.49%) fell as the meat-producer missed profit estimates and provided disappointing forward outlook.
Treasuries advanced along the curve with the benchmark 10-year note up 8/32 to yield 2.32%. In commodities, COMEX gold gained 0.3% to $1211.70/ounce. In FOREX, the Dollar Index fell 0.3%.

Heavy Volume Behind Breakout Gain
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
Arista Networks Inc (ANET +$6.50 or +7.39% to $94.48) finished strong after highlighted in yellow with pivot point cited based on its 2015 high plus 10 cents in the earlier mid-day report (read here). Disciplined investors know that risk increases when chasing a stock more than +5% above its pivot point. While challenging its all-time high, today's gap up and big gain backed by +256% above average volume triggered a technical buy signal yet quickly lifted it beyond its "max buy" level noted. Prior highs in the $87 may act as initial support on pullbacks, and patience may allow for accumulating shares without stretching too far beyond the fact-based investment system's guidelines.
ANET has shown strong and steady increases in quarterly sales revenues while earnings have routinely been well above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria) through the Sep '16 quarter. Its annual earnings (A criteria) growth has been strong, however, its history is limited since its $43 IPO in June of 2014.
The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 360 in Dec '15 to 434 in Sep '16, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. The high-ranked Computer - Networking firm has a Timeliness Rating of A and a Sponsorship Rating of C. Its small supply of 34.4 million shares (S criteria) in the public float may contribute to greater volatility in the event of institutional buying or selling.

G - Found support at its 50 DMA line ($45.24) this week. A damaging violation would raise concerns and deterioration below recent lows in the $41 area would raise more serious concerns and trigger a worrisome technical sell signal. Reported earnings +10% on +6% sales revenues for the Sep '16 quarter, below the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria), raising concerns. See the latest FSU analysis for more details and a new annotated graph.
