Breadth Positive as Major Indices Rose on Lighter Volume
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
Stocks finished mostly higher Wednesday. The S&P 500 gained 8 points to 2649 while the Nasdaq Composite climbed 63 points to 6972. The Dow was down less than a point to finish at 24464. The volume totals reported were lighter on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange versus the prior session. Breadth was positive as advancers led decliners by 3-1 on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 5 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that made new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, versus 6 on the prior session. New 52-week lows totals solidly outnumbered new 52-week highs totals on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. Technically, the last rally failed and the major indices (M criteria) are again in a correction. The Featured Stocks Page provides the most timely analysis on high-ranked leaders. Strict buying and selling rules should always be followed on a case by case basis. Charts used courtesy of www.stockcharts.com
PICTURED: The Nasdaq Composite Index posted a gain with light volume. It is well below its 200-day moving average (DMA) line.
The S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite posted solid gains as Tech stocks rebounded from recent weakness. On the data front, a report showed existing home sales rose 1.4% in October after slipping to the lowest level in three years in September. An additional survey revealed durable goods orders fell 4.4% in October, worse than the anticipated 2.6% decline. Separately, initial jobless claims came in at 224,000 in the most recent week, while the University of Michigan’s survey showed consumer sentiment eased more than expected in November.
Energy stocks boosted the major averages as WTI crude jumped 1.8% to $54.40/barrel. Meanwhile, Retailers recovered from recent weakness as Foot Locker (FL +14.9%) rose after topping analyst profit estimates. Technology stocks also outperformed as Microsoft (MSFT +1.4%) and IBM (IBM +1.2%) rose. The Consumer Staples and Healthcare sectors lagged the broader market advance as Philip Morris (PMI -3.0%) and Johnson & Johnson (JNJ -3.1%) fell. Shares of Deere (DE +2.4%) rose after offering better-than-expected forward guidance.
Treasuries were weaker along the curve as the yield on the 10-year note climbed one basis point to 3.06%. In commodities, COMEX gold added 0.4% to $1,226.50/ounce amid a weaker dollar.

Negated Recent Breakout and Slumped Below 200 Day Average
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
Marinemax Inc (HZO +$0.04 or +0.19% to $20.98) has slumped below its 50-day and 200-day moving average (DMA) lines raising concerns. Disciplined investors always limit losses by selling any stock that falls more than -7% from their purchase price. It will be dropped from the Featured Stocks list tonight. A rebound above the 50 DMA line is needed for its outlook to improve.
HZO was highlighted in yellow with pivot point cited based on its 6/07/18 high plus 10 cents in the 11/02/18 mid-day report (read here) and shown that evening with an annotated graph under the headline, "Boat Retailer Has Strong Earnings History".
Recently it reported Sep '18 earnings +105% on +23% sales revenues, its 4th consecutive quarter with a big earnings increase more than the +25% minimum (C criteria) versus the year ago period. Sales revenues growth has shown encouraging acceleration in sequential quarterly comparisons versus the year ago periods. Its annual earnings (A criteria) history has been strong and steady.
The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 250 in Dec '17 to 280 in Sep '18, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. The current Up/Down Volume Ratio of 1.0 is an unbiased indication its shares have been neutral concerning accumulation/distribution over the past 50 days. Its Timeliness Rating is A and Sponsorship Rating is B.

G - Slumped below its 50 DMA line ($22.22) again and its color code is changed to green. Recent low ($20.25 on 10/26/18) defines the next important support. A rebound above the 50 DMA line is needed for its outlook to improve. Subsequent gains above the pivot point backed by at least +40% above average volume may trigger a technical buy signal.
