Major Indices Post Modest Gains With Lighter Volume Totals
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
The Dow added 42 points while the S&P 500 gained 0.4%. The Nasdaq Composite advanced 0.7%. Advancers led decliners by a 9-5 margin on the NYSE and nearly 2-1 on the Nasdaq exchange. Volume totals reported were lighter than the prior session on both major exchanges, indicative of lackluster institutional buying demand. Leadership improved as there were 82 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit a new 52-week high and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, versus the total of 77 on the prior session. New 52-week highs outnumbered new 52-week lows on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. The major indices (M criteria) are in a "confirmed uptrend" after enduring distributional pressure in recent weeks. The Featured Stocks Page provides the most timely analysis on high-ranked leaders.

PICTURED: The Nasdaq Composite Index rallied for a new record high with a 4th consecutive gain.
U.S. stocks finished higher Wednesday as stronger than anticipated economic updates helped propel equity benchmark indexes to a fourth consecutive record finish. The data docket was highlighted by the first revision to third-quarter GDP, which showed that the U.S. economy expanded at an annualized 2.1% pace, higher than the initial reading of 1.9%.
A separate updated revealed U.S. durable goods orders unexpectedly rose 0.6% in October. The core PCE deflator, the Fed’s preferred proxy for inflation, ticked down to 1.6% in October, just below expectations of a 1.7% rise. An additional survey showed pending home sales declined 1.7% month-over-month in October, worse than the prior month’s downwardly revised 1.4% reading. Treasuries were weaker, with the yield on the benchmark 10-year note adding two basis points to 1.76%.
Ten of 11 S&P 500 sectors finished in positive territory with the Consumer Discretionary group pacing the gains. Communication Services stocks also outperformed as shares of Facebook (FB +1.53%) rose. Industrials lagged the broader market advance, with Deere & Co. (DE -4.30%) fell as weak forward guidance overshadowed a top and bottom line beat. In other earnings, Autodesk (ADSK +5.49%) rallied to a new all-time high after topping sales and profit estimates. H P Inc. (HPQ -1.35%) fell despite reporting its first uptick in revenue in six quarters. In commodities, WTI crude fell 0.5% to $58.11/barrel while COMEX gold slipped 0.4% to $1453.90/ounce.
