Nasdaq Composite Posts 11th Consecutive Gain
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam

The Dow Jones Industrial Average's small loss on Wednesday ended its 7 session winning streak, however the Nasdaq Composite made its 11th straight advance. The volume total on the NYSE was reported lighter than the prior session total while the Nasdaq exchange's volume total rose. Advancers led decliners on the NYSE by about a 4-to-3 ratio and by an 8-to-5 ratio on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 36 high-ranked companies from the CANSLIM.net Leaders List that made a new 52-week high and appeared on the CANSLIM.net BreakOuts Page, down from the 42 issues that appeared on the prior session. New 52-week highs again greatly outnumbered new lows.

Ben Bernanke continued his two-day address to Congress on Wednesday, speaking in front of the Senate Banking Committee. The Federal Reserve Chairman again warned that high unemployment is "the most pressing issue" as the country tries to recover from the longest recession since World War II. Mr. Bernanke also put himself at odds with the Obama administration by resisting its plan to create a U.S consumer protection agency for risky financial products. The Fed plans Thursday to issue a proposal to boost disclosures on mortgages and home equity lines of credit. It will include new rules covering the compensation of mortgage originators.

Of the approximately 100 companies in the S&P 500 Index that have reported earnings, 62% have topped analysts' forecasts, according to Standard & Poor's. Despite better-than-expected results from many banks, however, analysts are worried about deteriorating credit and messy balance sheets.

PICTURED: The NYSE Composite Index is challenging its 2009 high, however recent gains that helped it rally above its 50-day moving average (DMA) line from support near its 200 DMA line have lacked volume conviction.

Retail Index Climbs Near 2009 Highs
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
The Semiconductor Index ($SOX +2.65%) was a standout tech leader on Wednesday while the Internet Index ($IIX +0.31%) and Networking Index ($NWX +0.52%) each posted only modest gains and the Biotechnology Index ($BTK -0.41%) edged lower. The influential Bank Index ($BKX +0.95%) and Broker/Dealer Index ($XBD +0.99%) rose, helping somewhat to offset losses from the Oil Services Index ($OSX -1.59%) and Integrated Oil Index ($XOI -0.76%). The Healthcare Index ($HMO +0.57%) posted a small gain while the Gold & Silver Index ($XAU -0.01%) ended flat.

Charts courtesy www.stockcharts.com

PICTURED: The Retail Index ($RLX +0.91%) has rallied near its 2009 chart highs after consolidating for the past 3 months above and below its 50-day moving average line. A rally to new 2009 highs from the influential RLX in the near-term would bode better for the broader market outlook.

Relative Strength Has Slumped While Trading Under 50 Day Average
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam

Synaptics Inc. (SYNA -$0.07 or -0.20% to $34.37) remains trading under its 50-day moving average (DMA) line after finding support near prior chart highs. Several recent gains on above average volume helped it rally back above its prior pivot point, but leave its rebound still short of its important short-term average which may now act as a stubborn resistance level. Its Relative Strength rank has slumped to 78 (see red circle), down from 88 on July 10th when it made its last appearance in this Featured Stock Update section under the headline, "50 Day Average and Upward Trendline Violations This Week Raised Concerns" (read here). For its outlook to improve, technically, it still needs to repair the 50 DMA violation and show signs of institutional demand. It found support near prior chart highs after 7 session losing streak and a worrisome gap down on 7/14/09. Deterioration under its $31.75 low on July 15th would raise raise more serious concerns and trigger additional technical sell signals. For now it should remain on an active watch list in the event it shows strength and completes a new sound base.

SYNA was first featured in yellow in the May 18, 2009 Mid-Day BreakOuts 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. Strong earnings and sales revenues growth in the 4 latest quarterly comparisons satisfies the C criteria. Its annual earnings (the A criteria) history showed a downturn in 2006, leaving concerns, but it followed that up with strong growth the next 2 years.

						MB = $65.16
Most Recent Note - 7/22/2009 5:31:53 PM Y - Hit a new 52-week high today while posting a 6th consecutive gain, yet volume behind its recent gains has not met or exceeded the +50% above average volume guideline as it has edged above its pivot point. Featured in yellow in the 7/09/09 Mid-Day BreakOuts Report (read here). The group has shown some leadership, yet currently has a E 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 132 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. >>> The latest Featured Stock Update with an annotated graph appeared on 7/20/2009. click here.

Most Recent Note - 7/22/2009 5:42:26 PM Y - Consolidating quietly in a tight range after a considerable rally above its pivot point on 7/20/09 to a new all-time high with three times average volume triggered a technical buy signal.

Most Recent Note - 7/22/2009 7:03:26 PM G - Gain today with slightly above average volume for its second best close ever. Its 50 DMA line is important support to watch, where a violation would raise concerns and trigger a technical sell signal. Color code is changed to green, as it currently needs more time to form a new sound base within guidelines. 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. >>> The latest Featured Stock Update with an annotated graph appeared on 7/17/2009. click here.
