Tech-Heavy Nasdaq Composite Index Closes Above 10,000

The Dow fell 282 points, while the S&P 500 slipped 0.5%. The Nasdaq Composite bucked the downtrend, rising 0.7% to close above the 10,000 level for the first time. Decliners led advancers by almost a 3-1 margin on the NYSE and by a 5-3 margin on the Nasdaq exchange. The reported volume totals were mixed, higher than the prior session on the NYSE and lighter on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 32 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, versus the 17 on the prior session. New 52-week highs totals expanded and solidly outnumbered new 52-week lows totals which were in the single digits again on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. The major indices are in a confirmed uptrend (M criteria)Any sustainable rally requires a healthy crop of new leaders, so the recent improvement in new highs totals was noted as an encouraging sign.

PICTURED: The S&P 500 Index is now -6% off its record high.

U.S. stocks finished mixed on Wednesday following the Federal Reserve’s policy decision. As expected, the Fed left its benchmark interest rate unchanged, while officials released their first economic forecasts since December. The “dot plot” showed policymakers expecting the Fed-funds rate to remain near zero until at least 2022. Fed Chair Jerome Powell reiterated that the central bank would use its full range of tools to help aid in the economic recovery. Treasuries rallied, with the yield on the 10-year note down 10 basis points to 0.72%. A gauge of the U.S. dollar slumped 0.4%.

Ten of 11 S&P 500 sectors closed negative territory, with Tech shares the lone advancers. Microsoft (MSFT +3.71%) and Apple (AAPL +2.57%) both notched fresh all-time highs. In corporate news, Amazon (AMZN +1.79%) also hit a new record level after announcing plans to offer a new digital credit line for U.S.-based small businesses, in partnership with Goldman Sachs (GS -2.10%) .

On the data front, consumer prices declined for a third-consecutive month in May, while the annualized figure rose 0.1%, the smallest increase since September 2015. Core CPI (ex-food and energy) advanced 1.2% year-over-year, slowing from the prior month’s 1.4% pace. Separately, the U.S. budget deficit almost doubled on a year-over-year basis to $399 billion in May. In commodities, WTI crude erased earlier losses to finish higher despite reports revealing a surprise buildups in U.S. inventories.

Advanced Ascending Base Formed for Strong E-Signature Firm

Docusign Inc (DOCU +$6.13 or +4.32% to $148.05) was highlighted in yellow in the earlier mid-day report (read here) with pivot point cited based on its 5/02/20 high plus 10 cents after forming an advanced "ascending base" marked by 3 pullbacks of 10-20% during its ongoing ascent. Subsequent gains above the pivot point backed by at least +40% above average volume may trigger a new (or add-on) technical buy signal.

It has an Earnings Per Share Rating of 84, above the 80+ minimum for buy candidates. Recently it reported earnings +71% on +39% sales revenues for the Apr '20 quarter versus the year ago period. Three of the past 4 quarterly comparisons versus the year ago period were above the +25% minimum guideline with solid underlying sales revenues growth. After years of losses it had solid earnings in FY '19 and '20.

The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 558 on Jun '19 to 880 in Mar '20, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. Its current Up/Down Volume Ratio of 1.6 also is an unbiased indication its shares have been under accumulation over the past 50 days. The Computer Software-Enterprise industry group is currently ranked 2nd of the 197 Industry Groups (L criteria).
