Pulling Back After Getting Extended More Than +5% Above Prior Highs

Ollie's Bargain Outlet (OLLI -$0.80 or -2.52% to $31.00) pulled back today for a 3rd consecutive loss on lighter than average volume since hitting a new all-time high last week. It is still above its "max buy" level. Recent gains above the pivot point lacked the +40% above average volume needed to trigger a proper technical buy signal. The Retail-Discount and Variety firm was last shown in this FSU section on 11/10/16 with an annotated graph under the headline, "Hit New High With Gain Lacking Great Volume Conviction". It was first highlighted in yellow with a pivot point based on its 9/01/16 high plus 10 cents in 10/04/16 mid-day report (read here).

The Retail - Discount & Variety industry group has also been lagging (L criteria) and currently has a very low Group Relative Strength Rating of only 13. Disciplined investors might look to find more favorable odds by choosing a leader in a high-ranked industry group. Fundamentally, it has a very strong 97 Earnings Per Share (EPS) rating. It reported earnings +50% on +16% sales revenues for the Jul '16 quarter, continuing its strong earnings track record with results above the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria) for a 6th consecutive quarter. Its annual earnings (A criteria) history has been good.  

OLLI completed its $16 IPO on 7/16/15. It completed a Secondary Offerings on 6/06/16 and 2/18/16. The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 98 in Sep '15 to 249 in Sep '16, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. Its small supply of only 60.2 million shares outstanding (S criteria) can contribute to greater price volatility in the event of institutional buying or selling.
