Major Averages Finish Positive Week After Beginning New Confirmed Rally
Adam Sarhan, Contributing Writer,
Stocks ended higher this week, confirmed their latest rally attempt, and the benchmark S&P 500 index and the Dow Jones Industrial Average both closed above their respective 200-day moving average (DMA) lines which is an encouraging sign. Volume totals were reported higher on both major exchanges due to Friday's quadruple witching day. Advancers led decliners by a slim margin on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange as the major averages continued consolidating recent gains. There were 33 high-ranked companies from the CANSLIM.net Leaders List that made a new 52-week high and appeared on the CANSLIM.net BreakOuts Page, higher than the 22 issues that appeared on the prior session. New 52-week highs outnumbered new 52-week lows on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange.
On Monday, the major averages ended mixed but near their intra-day lows after Greece's Debt was downgraded by Moody's. However, instead of the usual sell-off, the bulls promptly showed up on Tuesday and helped the major averages score a proper follow-through day (FTD) which confirmed their latest rally attempt. It was equally impressive to see stocks rally and close above their respective 200 DMA lines which has served as formidable resistance over the past 5 weeks. Stocks caught a bid after a New York manufacturing report suggested the global economy remains solid. The Federal Reserve Bank of New York’s general economic index, which measures economic activity in the NY area, rose for an 11th consecutive month which helped offset European Debt woes. In addition, the US dollar continued its two week sell off which helped a slew of dollar denominated assets rally.
Stocks closed mixed, but near their intra-day highs, after retesting the 200 DMA line on Wednesday. Investors digested the latest round of lukewarm economic data and BP (+0.16%) said it plans to create a $20 billion fund to pay for damages from the oil spill. Before Wednesday's opening bell, the Commerce Department said housing starts slid -10%, the largest decline since March 2009, to a 593,000 annual rate. This was lower from a revised 659,000 pace in April and was less than analyst estimates. Meanwhile, building permits, a sign of future construction, unexpectedly fell to a one-year low and single-family starts suffered the largest decline since 1991. The weaker than expected housing data coupled with the sharp two month sell-off in many housing names raises the likelihood of a double dip decline in the ailing housing market. Separately, Fannie Mae (FNM -18.41%)and Freddie Mac (FRE -21.51%) plunged after their regulator told the two mortgage-finance companies to delist their stock from the New York Stock Exchange. Finally, the produce price index (PPI) was released on Wednesday, and it did not spook investors. It is usually an encouraging sign when the market is resilient enough to shrug off disappointing headlines.
Thursday was another relatively quiet day on Wall Street as stocks continued consolidating Tuesday's robust move. Before Thursday's opening bell, the Labor Department said US jobless claims rose to 472,000 last week, and the consumer price index (CPI) slid, which helped allay inflation woes. The Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia’s general economic index fell to a 10-month low of 8, less than half the median estimate of Wall Street economists and the Conference Board's index of leading indicators in April edged down -0.1%, following a +1.3% increase in the prior month. Stocks edged higher on Friday as a series of options expired.
Now that the major averages confirmed their latest rally attempt on Tuesday, June 15, 2010, the window is open for disciplined investors to begin carefully buying high-ranked stocks again. Technically, it was encouraging to also see the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the benchmark S&P 500 Index rally above their respective 200-day moving average (DMA) lines. Looking forward, the 200 DMA line should now act as support as this market continues advancing, while any reversal below that key technical level would be a worrisome sign.
Remember to remain very selective because all of the major averages are still trading below their downward sloping 50 DMA lines. It was somewhat disconcerting to see volume remain light (below average) behind the confirming gains. It is important to note that approximately 75% of FTDs lead to new sustained rallies, while 25% fail. In addition, every major rally in market history has begun with a FTD, but not every FTD leads to a new rally. Trade accordingly.

Healthcare Group Getting Into Healthier Shape
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam

A modest gain for the Bank Index ($BKX +0.77%) also helped underpin the major averages' gains, but the Broker/Dealer Index ($XBD +0.06%) ended virtually flat and the Retail Index ($RLX -0.22%) edged lower.

Strength Helps Insurance Firm Return To Featured Stocks List
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
Cninsure Inc (CISG +$0.49 or +1.84% to $27.09) posted a gain with above average volume to end the week reassuringly, closing just -5% off its 52-week high. It is consolidating above its 50-day moving average (DMA) line after recent gains above that important short-term average helped its outlook improve, technically. Disciplined investors may be wise to continue waiting until a fresh technical buy signal occurs. It was featured again in yellow in the 6/16/10 mid-day report (read here) with new pivot point cited based upon its 5/13/10 high. Based on weak action it was previously dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 5/19/10.
This China-based insurance broker has shown strong earnings and sales growth above the +25% guideline. It traded up as much as +17.4% higher after it rose from a 20-week double bottom base with 8 times average volume and was in the 3/03/10 mid-day report (read here). The lack of any other high-ranked leadership in the Insurance-Brokers industry group also remains a concern with respect to the investment system's L criteria.
