Indices Rebounded Above 50-Day Moving Average Lines

Stocks rallied on Wednesday and the major averages rebounded above their respective 50-day moving average lines, thanks largely to the tremendous influence of a big gain from Apple Inc (AAPL +8.87%). Volume totals were reported higher than the prior session totals on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange, coupled with the indices' gains and positive breadth, offering a sign that institutional investors were again accumulating stocks. Advancers led decliners by about 3-1 on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. The total number of stocks hitting new 52-week highs swelled and easily outnumbered new 52-week lows on both the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 48 high-ranked companies from the CANSLIM.net Leaders List that made new 52-week highs and appeared on the CANSLIM.net BreakOuts Page, more than doubling the prior session total of 23 stocks. The session concluded with gains for 32 of the 34 high-ranked companies currently included on the Featured Stocks Page.

 

Tech stocks were inspired by Apple Inc's latest strong earnings report, and positive earnings outshined disappointing economic data. A weaker-than-expected March durable goods orders had little effect in discouraging investors following several strong corporate profit tallies and an upward revision in the Federal Reserve's economic growth forecast. Thhe FOMC supplied a more optimistic outlook, lowering their unemployment rate estimate to a 7.8% to 8% range and lifting their U.S. GDP projection to a range of 2.4% to 2.9%. In addition, Chairman Bernanke reiterated the Fed's commitment to intervene should the economy weaken and to keep rates low through late 2014.

All 10 sectors on the S&P finished higher, led by tech stocks. Shares of Apple Inc (AAPL +8.87%) rallied $49.72 to $610.00 after strong iPhone sales in China helped the company exceed analysts' expectation in the quarter. Also among earnings, Boeing Co (BA +5.29%) and Harley Davidson Inc (HOG +6.22%) rose after both companies reported stronger-than-expected results. On the downside, Caterpillar Inc (CAT -4.58%) gave up ground as revenues came in lighter than estimates.

In bondland, Treasuries were modestly lower along the curve. The 10-year note was down 4 ticks to yield 1.99%.

Subsequent deterioration in the major averages' charts below their 50-day moving average lines and latest lows would quickly raise more serious concerns. The major averages' (M criteria) rally came under recent distributional pressure and some analysts quickly called it a market "correction". Healthy market leadership (stocks making new 52-week highs) is critical to any market rally, so investors should watch for further expansion in the new highs lists and an increase in the number of stocks reaching the CANSLIM.net BreakOuts Page.  Meanwhile, disciplined investors may refrain from new buying efforts until a solid gain from at least one of the major averages comes with higher volume, confirming a new rally with a "follow-through-day".  On a case-by-case basis, eliminating any stocks showing signs of fundamental or technical weakness is precisely how the fact-based system helps investors raise cash and avoid setbacks during any market downturn.

PICTURED: The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose back above its 50-day moving average line.

Tech, Financial, Retail Groups Underpin Major Indices' Gains

The Semiconductor Index ($SOX +2.34%) led the tech sector higher, followed by gains from the Biotechnology Index ($BTK +1.75%), Internet Index ($IIX +1.76%), and the  Networking Index ($NWX +1.28%).  A solid gain from the Retail Index ($RLX +1.94%) and strength from the Broker/Dealer Index ($XBD +0.81%) and the Bank Index ($BKX +1.05%) had a positive influence on the major averages.  The Gold & Silver Index ($XAU +1.96%) was higher, rising back from lows not seen since February 2010.  The Oil Services Index ($OSX +1.38%) also rallied, meanwhile the Integrated Oil Index ($XOI +0.13%) and the Healthcare Index ($HMO +0.38%) posted smaller gains.

PICTURED: The Retail Index ($RLX +1.94%) is consolidating above its 50-day moving average (DMA) line and prior lows, still in healthy shape, technically.

Fundamentals Strong After 10-Month Cup Shaped Base

Often, when a leading stock is setting up to breakout of a solid base it is highlighted in CANSLIM.net's Mid-Day Breakouts Report. The most relevant factors are noted in the report which alerts prudent CANSLIM oriented investors to place the issue in their watch list. After doing any necessary backup research, the investor is prepared to act after the stock triggers a technical buy signal (breaks above its pivot point on more than +50% average turnover) but before it gets too extended from a sound base. In the event the stock fails to trigger a technical buy signal and its price declines then it will simply be removed from the watch list. Disciplined investors know to buy as near as possible to the pivot point and avoid chasing stocks after they have rallied more than +5% above their pivot point. It is crucial to always limit losses whenever any stock heads the wrong direction, and disciplined investors sell if a struggling stock ever falls more than -7% from their purchase price.

Vitamin Shoppe Inc (VSI +$1.27 or +2.75% to $47.44) gapped up today, rallying near its 52-week high. It was featured in yellow in the earlier mid-day report (read here) with pivot point based on its 7/05/11 high after a near 10-month cup shaped base. It went through a deep consolidation below its 200 DMA line since last noted in the 9/08/11 mid-day report. The $46 area was a stubborn resistance level in recent months. Some chart readers may argue that volume-driven gains cleared prior resistance and already triggered a buy signal. No overhead supply remains to hinder its progress. However, a volume-driven gain did not yet clear the pivot point which we cited and trigger a new (or add-on) technical buy signal. In the context of great winners illustrated in the book, "How to Make Money in Stocks", one may argue that a powerful breakout to new 52-week high territory could be far more telling as to its ability to go on producing gains and make a meaningful advance in the coming days and weeks.

If subsequent gains are produced, disciplined investors know that the further one chases any stock above its pivot point the greater the chances are than an ordinary pullback may necessitate selling. A tactical approach called pyramiding is taught in the Certification to help investors avoid chasing stocks and get the best results. Disciplined investors also know to always limit losses if ever any stock falls more than 7% from their purchase price!

Recent volume-driven gains helped its Relative Strength Rating (RS) rise to 82, above the 80+ guideline for buy candidates. Fundamentally, it has earned high ranks after showing strong quarterly and annual earnings increases satisfying the C and A criteria. Keep in mind that it is due to report earnings before the market open on Tuesday, May 8, 2012. Volume and volatility often increase near earnings news.

The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 290 in Jun '11 to 335 in Mar '12, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. Leadership (L criteria) provided by its peer in the Retail - Specialty group, GNC Holdings Inc (GNC), is another reassuring sign. Vitamin Shoppe (29.4 million) has less than 1/3 as many shares outstanding as GNC (109 million). That small supply is not a bad thing, but could contribute to greater price volatility. However, historic studies have shown that once companies have grown their supply (S criteria) of shares outstanding to hundreds of millions, or even billions of shares outstanding, they are less likely candidates to be "above average" gainers.

G - Down today amid widespread market weakness. There was a "negative reversal" on 4/19/12 after touching a new all-time high. Volume totals have been cooling while stubbornly holding its ground, a sign that few are exiting, while it remains perched near its 52-week high. Its latest consolidation has been brief, yet it may be forming an advanced "3-weeks tight" base well above its 50 DMA line and prior highs near $18-19 that define support to watch on pullbacks.

G - Gain today has it rebounding above its 50 DMA line. A volume-driven gain above its recent chart high ($25.49 on 3/21/12) may help trigger a proper technical buy signal after a new base formation, however no new (lower) pivot point is currently being cited, and it may continue encountering stubborn resistance.

Y - Small gap up today, hitting new 52-week and all-time highs and approaching the previously cited "max buy" level. Solid gain on 4/20/12 with +75% above average volume met the guideline for a proper technical buy signal. The encouraging sign of fresh institutional buying demand may signal the beginning of a meaningful leg up, but keep in mind 3 out of 4 stocks follow the direction of the major averages (M criteria) and the market has recently been pulling back under distributional pressure. Prior highs in the $118-121 area define initial chart support to watch on pullbacks.

G - Sank near its pivot point and closed near the session low with above average volume behind today's 4th consecutive loss. Raised concerns as it violated the previously noted upward trendline connecting its December, March, and April lows triggering an early sell signal. Important support to watch is at prior highs in the $31 area and its 50 DMA line where more damaging losses would raise serious concerns.

Concerns were raised by weaker fundamentals. Reported earnings +22% on +23% sales revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 versus the year ago period, its first quarterly earnings increase below the +25% minimum guideline in more than 2 years.
