Major Averages Rose With Less Volume Conviction
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam

On Monday the major averages rose, however, the volume totals behind the gains were reported lighter on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. Advancers led decliners by a 2-1 margin on the NYSE and by 7-6 on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 7 high-ranked companies from the CANSLIM.net Leaders List that made new 52-week highs and appeared on the CANSLIM.net BreakOuts Page, up from the total of 5 stocks on the prior session. The list of stocks hitting new 52-week highs outnumbered new lows on the NYSE while new lows outnumbered new 52-week highs on the Nasdaq exchange. There were gains for 3 of the 5 high-ranked companies currently included on the Featured Stocks Page, a list that has grown shorter as numerous leaders have broken down in recent weeks. The Market (M criteria) pullback earned the label of a "correction" as a result of recent pressure on the indices, especially the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite Index, coupled with waning leadership (fewer stocks hitting new 52-week highs). Investors are reminded to limit losses by always selling any stock that falls more than -7% from their purchase price. This is precisely how the fact-based investment system prompts investors to reduce their overall market exposure during weak periods.

On Monday the Dow was up 146 points to 16,173. The S&P 500 rose 15 points to 1,830. The NASDAQ gained 23 points to close at 4,022. The major averages recovered from last week's retreat following encouraging economic and earnings reports. Before the open, retail sales unexpectedly grew +1.1% in March, its largest increase since 2012. On the earnings front, Citigroup (C +4.36%) climbed after posting quarterly results above analyst projections. The market recovered from an brief pullback in the afternoon attributed to concerns surrounding tension in Ukraine.

All 10 sectors in the S&P 500 were up on the session. Energy and materials were the best performing groups as Chevron (CVX +1.43%) and miner Freeport McMoRan (FCX +2.27%) rose. Over in tech, International Business Machines (IBM +1.32%) and Cisco (CSCO +1.74%) rose. Edward Lifesciences (EW +11%) was up the most in the S&P 500. The heart device maker rallied after a court ruled to limit sales of rival Medtronic's CoreValve system. Medtronic (MDT -1.89%) declined. Intuitive Surgical (ISRG -3.3%) was the worst performing stock in the S&P 500.

Treasuries were lower following the better-than-expected retail sales report. Benchmark 10-year notes fell 6/32 to yield 2.65%.

Halted Slide After Slump Below 50-Day Moving Average
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
Power Solutions Int'l Inc (PSIX +$0.69 or +0.97% to $72.19) is trading below its 50-day moving average (DMA) line after recent volume-driven losses. Its color code was changed to green. The recent low ($66.03 on 4/07/14) defines important near-term support where further deterioration would raise greater concerns. The high-ranked firm from the Machinery - General Industrial group was last shown in this FSU section on 4/01/14 with annotated graphs under the headline, "Found Prompt Support Near 50-Day Average After Dip Back Into Prior Base". Disciplined investors avoid chasing stocks more than +5% above prior highs and always sell if any stock falls more than -7% from their purchase price.

PSIX was highlighted in yellow with a pivot point cited based on its 2/21/14 high in the 2/28/14 mid-day report (read here). It stalled shortly after its 3/06/14 technical breakout, having made only a little headway into new high territory. It reported earnings +26% on +17% sales revenues for the Dec '13 quarter, its 3rd consecutive quarter with earnings above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 6 in Mar '13 to 123 in Mar '14, a reassuring trend concerning the I criteria. The small supply of only 4.33 million shares (S criteria) can contribute to greater price volatility in the event of institutional buying or selling. Additional leadership in the Machinery - General Industrial group (L criteria) is reassuring.

Color Codes Explained :
Y - Better candidates highlighted by our staff of experts.
G - Previously featured in past reports as yellow but may no longer be buyable under the guidelines.
