Breadth Negative as Major Averages Fall on Lighter Volume Totals

The major averages rebounded from early lows but slumped again in the final hour and finished with small losses on Monday. Volume totals were reported lighter than the prior session totals on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange, suggesting that institutional selling was not to blame for the market's weakness. Decliners led advancers by more than a 2-1 margin on the Nasdaq exchange and on the NYSE. There were 34 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 54 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 only 3 of the 12 high-ranked companies currently included on the Featured Stocks Page.

 

Stocks spent the session in negative territory after a report showed pending home sales declined -0.4% in June. Market action also was lower as investors awaited the start to the Fed's two-day policy meeting starting Tuesday and Friday's employment report. It is also a busy week for earnings with more than 130 companies in the S&P 500 due to release second quarter results.

Wynn Resorts Ltd (WYNN +0.22%) eked out a small gain after quarterly results fell short of projections.  Energy shares including Exxon Mobil Corp (XOM -0.80%) edged lower after it reduced rates at the 238,000-barrel-a-day Joliet, Illinois, refinery, the fifth-largest plant in the U.S. Midwest. Weyerhaeuser Co (WY -2.81%) fell after beating earnings estimates but forecasting tighter profits. The telecom sector outperformed with AT&T Inc (T +0.79%). Saks Inc (SKS +4.18%) rose after the high-end retailer agreed to be acquired by Canada's Hudson's Bay for $2.9 billion.  Shares of Herbalife Ltd (HLF +3.63%) rose ahead of its profit release after the closing bell.

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.

Financial, Tech, Retail, Healthcare and Commodity-Linked Groups Fell

Financial shares pulled back and created a drag on the major averages on Monday as the Broker/Dealer Index ($XBD -0.93%) and the Bank Index ($BKX -0.89%) lost ground.   The tech sector saw unanimous losses from the Biotechnology Index ($BTK -1.49%), Semiconductor Index ($SOX -0.67%), Internet Index ($IIX -0.63%), and the Networking Index ($NWX -0.42%). The Retail Index ($RLX -0.51%) and the Healthcare Index ($HMO -0.43%) also suffered modest losses.  Commodity-linked groups rounded out a solidly negative session as the Oil Services Index ($OSX -0.98%), Integrated Oil Index ($XOI -0.78%), and the Gold & Silver Index ($XAU -0.86%) collectively lost ground.

Extended from Prior Base Following Volume-Driven Gains

Celgene Corp (CELG  -$1.28 or -0.89% to $142.66) ended with a small loss on light volume today following solid gains and a best-ever close with above average volume last week. Prior highs define initial support to watch in the $131 area. It has tallied 5 consecutive weekly gains and it found support when consolidating above prior highs following its "breakaway gap" when last shown in this FSU section on 7/11/13 with an annotated graph under the headline, "Finished Strong After Breakaway Gap to a New 52-Week High". Members were reminded - "Today's technical buy signal was coupled with strong action in the broader market (M criteria) which encourages investors to increase their buying efforts in worthy looking candidates." It had convincingly cleared the pivot point based on its 5/14/13 high plus 10 cents which was cited in the 7/11/13 mid-day report (read here) after it gapped up. A technical buy signal was triggered by its considerable gain backed by twice its average daily trading volume.

CELG reported earnings +25% on +17% sales revenues for the Jun '13 quarter versus the year ago period, maintaining its strong earnings history (C and A criteria). The stock's Accumulation/ Distribution Rating has been improving and it has earned high ranks. The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 1,623 in Dec '11 to 1,903 in Jun '13, a reassuring trend concerning the I criteria.  However, the company is already well-known by the institutional crowd, and that means that very few are likely to just be discovering it. Disciplined investors avoid chasing extended stocks and they always limit losses by selling is any stock falls more than -7% from their purchase price.
