Major Averages Post Big Gains On Higher Volume As Leadership Expands
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
The market averages posted big gains on Wednesday, spending the entire session ascending steadily with an expansion in volume revealing greater buying conviction from the institutional crowd. More recent levels have been unimpressive, which often signals a lack of conviction. A better-than-expected second quarter reported by semiconductor giant Intel (INTC +7.25%) helped the tech sector surge and allowed the major averages to post some of their best gains in the last few months. Further emphasizing the solid accumulation day, advancers dramatically led decliners by more than a 9-to-1 on the NYSE, meanwhile on the Nasdaq exchange advancers led by nearly a 5-to-1 ratio. There were 20 high-ranked companies from the CANSLIM.net Leaders List that made a new 52-week high and appeared on the CANSLIM.net BreakOuts Page, up nicely from the 12 issues that appeared on the prior session.

Widespread gains helped all three major indices close above their 50-day moving average (DMA) lines as well as their 200 DMA lines. American Express (AXP +11.28%) was a primary leader in the Dow after the company reported encouraging news that credit card delinquencies declined. A regulatory filing said its accounts at least 30 days past due shrunk to 4.4% of total loans during the month ended June 30, after falling to 4.7% in May and 4.9% in April.
Renewed strength among financial stocks has helped revive the broader market rally. Financials are currently up more than 10% week-to-date, and we take a closer look at the financial indices in this report's Industry Group Watch section. Among the positive catalysts earlier this week, a prominent analyst made encouraging predictions about the short-term prospects of banks. The FOMC's release of the minutes from its June meeting may have inspired some of the stronger trading as the Fed raised its 2009-2010 forecast for the economy. Earnings announcements are expected from banking giant JPMorgan Chase (JPM +4.50%) on Thursday morning before the opening bell. Bank of America (BAC +3.95%), Citigroup (C +8.56%), and General Electric (GE +5.15%) are due to report on Friday morning.
The Consumer Price Index, a widely-watched inflationary gauge, showed a sharper-than-expected +0.7% increase for June, the sharpest increase since July 2008. A -0.4% drop in June industrial production meant that production has fallen in 17 out of 18 months, however, the decline was less than expected and the softest downturn since a positive reading in October 2008.

Strength In Financial Group Spearheads More Market Gains
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
Widespread gains on Wednesday lifted most of the indices cited daily in this section. The Networking Index ($NWX +5.30%), Semiconductor Index ($SOX +4.43%), and the Internet Index ($IIX +4.10%) outpaced the Biotechnology Index ($BTK +2.27%) as the tech sector's upward bias helped the Nasdaq Composite lead its peers. Financial shares also were a positive influence as the Bank Index ($BKX +4.26%) outpaced the Broker/Dealer Index ($XBD +2.76%), and the Retail Index ($RLX +2.49%) also tacked on a solid gain. Commodity-linked areas produced big gains too, with the Gold & Silver Index ($XAU +4.63%), Integrated Oil Index ($XOI +3.44%), and Oil Services Index ($OSX +3.94%) posting solid gains. The Healthcare Index ($HMO +0.81%) was a relative laggard as it put up a modest gain.

Recent Lows Are Important Support To Watch During Consolidation
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
Shanda Interactive Ent Ltd (SNDA +$1.79 or +3.44% to $53.84) posted a gain on average volume today but it remains under its 50-day moving average (DMA) line. Concerns increase the longer it trades below that short-term average, meanwhile, convincing gains back above its 50 DMA line would be a nice reassurance that it was attracting institutional support. Subsequent deterioration below its recent chart low near $50 could raise more serious concerns and trigger a more worrisome technical sell signal, especially if volume swells behind more damaging losses. Losses on heavy volume in recent weeks were noted as they signaled distributional pressure leading to violations of it upward trendline and 50 DMA line. Its Accumulation/Distribution rank also reflects the recent action, having fallen from a respectable B on June 3rd, to a rather dismal D- today!
A closer look at its chart identified a worrisome "island reversal" pattern in the annotated graph included with and earlier appearance in this FSU section on June 25th, and any members who may not have noted that ominous pattern before should take time now to review that earlier report (read here). After featured in the June 2009 issue of CANSLIM.net News (read here), SNDA quickly got too extended from a proper buy point. Its outlook now grows increasingly questionable the longer and deeper it slumps into its prior base below it previous chart highs in the $53 area. More time is needed for it to form a new sound base such as "double bottom" in the coming weeks.

G - Small gain today on very light volume. A positive reversal on 7/13/09 was a sign of impressive institutional support after initially gapping down following an analyst downgrade. It had negatively reversed for a loss on the prior 2 sessions after it was featured in yellow in the 7/09/09 Mid-Day BreakOuts Report (read here). Color code was changed to green based on weak action. The group has shown some leadership, yet currently has a D- for a Relative Strength Rating. CPLA is a high-ranked leader in the Commercial Services-Schools Group. Its small supply of only 13.9 million shares in the float could contribute to greater price volatility in the event of institutional accumulation or distribution. The number of top-rated funds owning an interest rose from 91 in Sept '08, to 129 as of March '09, which is reassuring with respect to the I criteria. It has a very good earnings history that satisfies the C & A criteria, while recent quarters showed steady sales revenues increases in the +17-18% range.

G - Another gain today with average volume boosted it further from its 50 DMA line after an intra-day breach on Monday's session. Its short-term average is a very important support level to watch above its recent chart low ($51.65), where violations would raise concerns and trigger technical sell signals. On 6/09/09 it reached a new all-time high with a gain on light volume as a 3:2 stock split took effect. GMCR traded up more than +144% since appearing with an annotated graph under the headline "It May Soon Be Time To Go Green" when featured in the January 2009 CANSLIM.net News (read here).

G - Today was its 4th consecutive gain on light volume, closing at its second best high ever. Recently tested prior highs in the $38 area which are a very important initial support level above its 50 DMA line. Last week it sank under an upward trendline connecting its April-June lows. A gap up gain on 6/16/09 with heavy volume triggered a technical buy signal. No overhead supply is left to hinder the progress for this Commercial Services - Healthcare firm.

G - Began with a small gap up and rose for a 5th consecutive session, with today's gain on higher volume. It found support and promptly repaired its 7/08/09 violation of its 50 DMA line which had triggered a technical sell signal. Prior chart highs near $32 are an important technical support level to watch now. First featured at $26.75 in the 3/31/09 CANSLIM.net Mid-Day Breakouts Report (read here). This high-ranked Chinese Internet - Content firm was also summarized in greater detail including an annotated graph in the April 2009 issue of CANSLIM.net News (read here).

G - Gapped up today for a decent gain backed by light volume. Recently found support near its 50 DMA line and prior highs - important support to watch, where violations would raise concerns and trigger technical sell signals. Color code was changed to green based deterioration after its 6/19/09 breakout from an "ascending base" type pattern was completely negated. Sales increases in recent comparisons have been under the +25% guideline and still rather minuscule, leaving concerns, especially in the event of any hiccups. This is a reason to be especially disciplined about proper entries and exits.

G - Held its ground today after a considerable loss on 7/14/09 with heavy volume indicated heavy distributional pressure, raising more concerns. A 50 DMA line violation on 7/08/09 triggered a technical sell signal. For its outlook to improve it would need to rally back above its 50 DMA line. First featured in yellow in the May 18, 2009 mid-day report (read here). The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 123 in June '08 to 201 in March '09, which is good news concerning the I criteria. Its annual earnings (the A criteria) history showed a dowturn in 2006, leaving concerns, but it followed that up with strong growth the next 2 years. Its small supply of shares (the S criteria) outstanding could contribute to especially great volatility in the event of institutional accumulation or distribution.
