Indices Quietly Hovering Near 2013 Highs

For the week, the Dow Jones Industrial Average added less than +0.1%, the S&P 500 Index was virtually unchanged and the Nasdaq Composite Index advanced +0.7%. The major averages finished little changed on Friday. Volume totals were reported lighter than the prior session totals on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. Decliners led advancers by a 3-2 margin on the Nasdaq exchange and by about a narrower 8-7 margin on the NYSE. There were 54 high-ranked companies from the CANSLIM.net Leaders List made new 52-week highs and appeared on the CANSLIM.net BreakOuts Page, down from the prior session total of 65 stocks. The list of stocks hitting new 52-week highs outnumbered new 52-week lows on both the NYSE and the Nasdaq exchange. There were gains for 5 of the 12 high-ranked companies currently included on the Featured Stocks Page.

 

Stocks recovered from their early lows as investors prepared for next week's FOMC meeting and non-farm payrolls report. Consumer sentiment hit a six year high, however most sectors on the S&P ended lower, led by a decline in telecom stocks.

On the earnings front, Starbucks Corp (SBUX +7.61%) rallied after the company posted earnings ahead of analysts' expectations and raised their full-year forecast. Shares of Gilead Sciences Inc (GILD +2.81%) also finished higher as the drug maker reported revenues ahead of estimates. On the downside, travel website Expedia Inc (EXPE -27.38%) fell following their disappointing profit tally. Online gaming company Zynga Inc (ZNGA -14.0%) felll after warning of weaker-than-expected current quarter earnings and announcing that it halted development of its U.S. online gambling business.

Turning to fixed income markets, Treasuries were modestly higher along the curve. The benchmark 10-year note was up 3/32 to yield 2.57% and the 30-year bond gained 13/32 to yield 3.62%.

The market (M criteria) has flashed substantial strength and leadership.  Now in a confirmed rally, odds are considered favorable for investors' success with new buying efforts.  Investors should be disciplined and selective while looking to be proactive and focused exclusively on the individual leaders best matching the winning models of the fact-based investment system.  Study the companies on the CANSLIM.net Featured Stocks Page - a page showing the most action-worthy candidates' latest notes and links to additional resources including detailed analysis with data-packed graphs which are annotated by a Certified expert.  The Premium Member Homepage - includes "dynamic archives" to all prior pay reports published.

Powering to New High Territory With Volume Driven Gains

Yandex (YNDX  +$1.61 or +5.06% to $33.42) spiked to another new 52-week high with a 2nd consecutive volume-driven gain, getting more extended from its previous base. Disciplined investors do not chase stocks more than +5% above their pivot point. Doing so increases the chance that an ordinary pullback may trigger the strict sell rules which limit losses when any stock falls more than -7% from their purchase price.

YNDX was highlighted in yellow with pivot point ($29.58) cited based on its 5/20/13 high plus 10 cents and an annotated weekly graph was included in the 7/10/13 mid-day report (read here) and it appeared in the FSU section that evening with an annotated graph under the headline, "Finished Near Pivot Point With Solid Volume-Driven Gain".  Then it gapped up and rallied above the $30 threshold the next day with another volume-driven gain clinching a proper technical buy signal. When consolidating it found support above prior highs in the $28-29 area which defined initial support to watch.

The company has shown strong quarterly sales revenues and earnings increases through Jun '13 versus the year ago periods. It has earned high ranks and maintained a strong quarterly and annual earnings history (C and A criteria). The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 276 in Sep '12 to 431 in Jun '13, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria.  The Internet - Content group has recently shown leadership and it currently has the highest possible A+ Group Relative Strength Rating, a reassuring sign concerning the L criteria of the fact-based investment system.
