The major averages and a slew of commodities surged after a host of healthy economic data was released from Asia and the European Central Bank (ECB) and the Bank of England (BOE) held rates steady near historic lows. Volume, an important indicator of institutional sponsorship, was reported lighter than Wednesday's levels on both major exchanges which prevented the S&P 500 from scoring a follow-through day (FTD) and suggested large institutions were not aggressively buying stocks.  Advancers trumped decliners by more than a 6-to-1 ratio on the NYSE and led by more than a 5-to-1 ratio on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 12 high-ranked companies from the CANSLIM.net Leaders List that made a new 52-week high and appeared on the CANSLIM.net BreakOuts Page, a modest improvement from the 5 issues that appeared on the prior session.  New 52-week highs outnumbered new 52-week lows on the NYSE, but not on the Nasdaq exchange.

Overnight, stocks in Asia rose after a slew of healthy economic reports were released from China, Japan and Australia. The latest data showed accelerating economic growth which was a welcoming sign from that region. Chinese exports surged to a six year high which helped reaffirm the notion that the world's fastest-growing major economy will continue to fuel the global recovery. Japan's GDP rose at an annualized +5% rate in the first quarter and Australia's nonfarm payrolls report rose for a third consecutive month. In the US, weekly jobless claims fell while the trade deficit widened to the highest level in a year as exports fell. All this, sent the US dollar lower and a host of dollar denominated assets higher (mainly stocks and commodities) as these markets work off their deeply oversold levels.

From our vantage point, the latest rally effort has lacked substance, evidenced by the poor action in the major averages in recent sessions. Furthermore, the author of "How To Make Money In Stocks", the book that explains the fact-based investment system, has observed in the past that a market should not be considered to be in "healthy" shape unless at least 2 of the 3 major averages are trading above their rising 200-day moving average (DMA) lines. As of Thursday's close, The Nasdaq Composite, Dow Jones Industrial Average, and S&P 500 index unanimously closed below their respective 200 DMA lines. Therefore, the bears will likely remain in control until these popular averages close above those important levels.  The Dow Jones Industrial Average marked Day 3 of its latest rally attempt while the Nasdaq Composite Index marked a new Day 1.

PICTURED: The S&P 500 Index's gain of +2.95% came with lighter volume, leaving questions about the buying conviction from the institutional crowd. The benchmark S&P 500 Index marked Day 12 of its current rally attempt, while narrowly avoiding undercutting its 5/25/10 low thus far. It failed to score a proper FTD due to the light volume that accompanied the latest gain from near 2010 lows.

Energy-related shares rallied on Thursday and led to big gains for the Integrated Oil Index ($XOI +5.48%) and Oil Services Index ($OSX +6.22%).  Financial shares also contributed to the major averages' gains as the Bank Index ($BKX +3.69%) and Broker/Dealer Index ($XBD +2.48%) provided important underlying strength.  There was also a solid gain from the Retail Index ($RLX +3.03%), and unanimous tech sector gains as the Semiconductor Index ($SOX +3.80%), Networking Index ($NWX +2.74%), Internet Index ($IIX +2.79%), and Biotechnology Index ($BTK +3.11%) charged higher. Defensive groups posted modest gains as the Gold & Silver Index ($XAU +1.49%) and Healthcare Index ($HMO +1.54%) rose.

PICTURED: The Oil Services Index ($OSX +6.22%) was a standout index as it rallied for a big gain.  It recently fell as much as -31% from its April high.

Mercadolibre Inc. (MELI +$4.14 or +7.79% to $57.30) surged in the final hour of today's session and hit a new 52-week high with a considerable gain above its pivot point on volume backed by +79% above average, triggering a technical buy signal. When it was last shown in this FSU section on 5/28/10 under the headline "Gains Above 50 DMA Line Follow Recent Distribution" an annotated graph showed it rebounding above its short-term average after enduring a wave of distributional pressure. In that article said - "It is an ideal candidate for one's watch list while awaiting the new rally effort's confirmation in the form of a sound follow-through day of gains from at least one of the major averages on higher volume."  The considerable gains for the major averages today were an encouraging sign, but lower volume totals on the major exchanges suggested that conviction from the institutional crowd at present may not be sufficient to fuel a sustainable advance.

The Latin American Internet - eCommerce firm was featured in yellow in the 5/13/10 mid-day report (read here) and noted as it traded within 5 cents of its 52-week high. It has found great support at its long-term 200-day moving average (DMA) line, including earlier in the year. The high-ranked leader's pivot point is based upon its 12/28/09 high plus ten cents. Top-rated funds owning an interest rose from 62 in Dec '08 to 98 in Mar '10, which is encouraging concerning the I criteria. Its strong quarterly earnings and annual earnings history satisfy the C and A criteria.
