Large Losses Push Major Indices Into Deeper Correction

For the week, the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell -3.3% while the S&P 500 Index and Nasdaq Composite Index each lost -3.2%. On Friday's session the indices finished with substantial losses for their first trading session of June, and all three of the major averages collectively closed below their longer-term 200-day moving average lines for the first time since December. The losses ended the latest rally attempt while clearly undercutting the indices' previously noted "Day 1" lows. Volume was reported lighter than the prior session totals on the Nasdaq exchange and on the NYSE, however that provided little to ease investor concerns. Breadth was solidly negative as decliners led advancers by more than 6-1 on the NYSE and by more than 5-1 on the Nasdaq exchange. The total number of new 52-week lows solidly outnumbered new 52-week highs on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. There was a complete evaporation of leadership while not a single high-ranked company from the CANSLIM.net Leaders List made a new 52-week high and appeared on the CANSLIM.net BreakOuts Page, down from the prior session total of 15 stocks. Additionally, there were losses for every one of the 18 high-ranked companies currently included on the Featured Stocks Page.

 

Markets fell after a jobs report showed employers added the fewest workers in a year. Non-farm payrolls for May climbed by 69,000, less than the street estimate for a 150,000 advance and the unemployment rate unexpectedly increased to 8.2% from 8.1%. Manufacturing data added to the negative tone as growth slowed across the globe. The ISM factory index fell to 53.5 in May and manufacturing in the euro zone dropped to a three-year low while China experienced its weakest production growth since December of last year.

Losses in influential financial firms led the declines as big losses were tallied by American International Group, Inc (AIG -6.75%), Morgan Stanley (MS -4.72%), Bank of America Corp (BAC -4.49%), Citigroup Inc (C -4.22%), American Express Company  (AXP -4.20%), JP Morgan Chase & Co (JPM -3.68%), and The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc (GS -3.20%).

Facebook, Inc (FB -6.35%) fell again and closed the session -27% from its $38.00 priced IPO, an offering which was completed on May 18th with the helpful assistance of several of the above mentioned financial firms as underwriters.

In bondland, both the yield on the 30-year bond and the 10-year note hit new record lows with the long bond up over a full point and a half to yield 2.53% and the benchmark note gained 30/32 to yield 1.46%.

The major averages (M criteria) are technically considered to be in a "correction" and stocks remain vulnerable to much greater downside, a point repeatedly included in bold in this commentary!  Historical studies suggest that the most constructive market rallies produced a solid follow-through day (FTD) between Days 4-7 of a new rally effort. Gains of +1.4% or greater by at least one of the major indexes should be backed by higher volume and preferably above average volume coupled with an expansion in the number of stocks hitting new highs. Only fresh technical proof may give fact-based investors the clearance to begin with new buying efforts strictly in sound buy candidates. Meanwhile, investors should keep up a watchlist of worthy buy candidates while remaining protective of capital.

PICTURED: The Nasdaq Composite Index undercut the May 21st lows ending the latest rally attempt without a confirming follow-through day.

Financials Led Broader Losses; Gold & Silver Index Rallies Back

The always-influential financial groups were the most guilty culprits behind Friday's big losses for the major averages.  Large losses for the Broker/Dealer Index ($XBD -3.52%) and Bank Index ($BKX -4.88%) robbed the latest rally attempt of a chance to produce a follow-through day. The Semiconductor Index ($SOX -4.13%), Networking Index ($NWX -3.28%), Biotechnology Index ($BTK -3.01%), and Internet Index ($IIX -2.54%) clicked up unanimous losses in the tech sector. The Retail Index ($RLX -2.42%) ripped lower and the Healthcare Index ($HMO -2.55%) also felt the markets ills. Energy-related stocks also were burned for big losses as the Oil Services Index ($OSX -2.36%) and Integrated Oil Index ($XOI -1.82%) slid lower. 

Charts courtesy www.stockcharts.com

PICTURED 1: The Bank Index's ($BKX -4.88%) large loss led to a close below its 200-day moving average (DMA) line for the first time since January.

PICTURED 2: The Gold & Silver Index ($XAU +5.79%) had a shining moment on Friday as its large gain helped it rally above its 50-day moving average (DMA) line for the first time since early March.

Distributional Action Brought Technical Damage This Week

Tractor Supply Co (TSCO -$1.76 or -1.93% to $89.59) was down again today for a 3rd loss with above average volume in the span of 4 sessions. It violated its 50-day moving average (DMA) line and prior lows triggering technical sell signals. It had not triggered a new (or add-on) technical buy signal in recent weeks while it encountered resistance in the $101 area. Its Accumulation/Distribution Rating is now a D- (see red circle), down from an A- when making its last appearance in this FSU section on 4/17/12 with an annotated graph under the headline "Extended From Base Posting 5th Straight Weekly Gain".  It had encountered a handful of distribution days (losses with higher volume than the prior session) prior to this week's breakdown.  Based on the weak action it will be dropped from the Featured Stocks list tonight.

Disciplined investors might not be wise to give even a long-time leader much opportunity to recover when the market is in an ugly correction.  Odds are not favorable when 3 out of 4 stocks tend to move in the direction of the major averages, and regular readers of the market commentary surely have no question what direction the market (M criteria) has been heading lately.

TSCO had traded up more than +25% after it was highlighted in yellow in the 1/12/12 mid-day report (read here) with pivot point cited based on its 12/09/11 high plus 10 cents. Its "breakaway gap" was noted as one exception to the rule of buying stocks only trading within 5% of their prior chart highs, however, investors were reminded that risk increases the further one chases any stock from a sound base pattern. In 3 of the past 4 quarterly comparisons it showed better than +25% earnings increases satisfying C criteria. A slight downturn in FY '08 earnings is a minor flaw concerning the A criteria, but that has been followed by very strong growth, and its 3-5 year "Growth Rate" of +26% is solid. As indicated on the weekly graph below, the number of top-rated funds owning its shares has risen from 525 in Jun '11 to 654 in Mar '12, a reassuring trend concerning the I criteria.

Y - Pulling back today from new all-time highs hit this week after 3 consecutive gains. No resistance remains due to overhead supply. The broader market (M criteria) has yet to confirm a new rally, however, and without a solid follow-through day from at least one of the major averages all new buying efforts are discouraged under the fact-based investment system.

G - Pulling back from its 52-week high today after a spurt of 3 consecutive gains. As previously noted, heavy volume behind a considerable gain on 5/23/12 technically helped it break out from an advanced "3-weeks tight" base with no resistance remaining due to overhead supply, however no new pivot point was cited. Until the market confirms a new rally with a solid follow through day from at least one of the major averages (M criteria) the fact-based investment system argues against new buying efforts in any stocks.

Slumping further below its 50 DMA line, today's 3rd consecutive loss has it trading under the prior low ($112.50 on 5/18/12) raising more serious concerns. It now faces overhead supply up through the $125 area that may be a source of resistance. Based on its technical deterioration it will be dropped from the Featured Stocks list tonight.

G - Encountered distributional pressure this week while rebounding toward its 52-week high. Recently found prompt support near its 50 DMA line but damaging losses negated the latest technical breakout after it stalled following its considerable "breakaway gap" on 5/03/12.
