Breadth Mixed While Nasdaq Leads Indices Higher

On Tuesday the Nasdaq Composite Index posted a gain while its peers finished virtually unchanged. The Dow gave back a 72 point advance to close down a point at 15,520. Volume totals were reported higher than the prior session totals on the Nasdaq exchange and on the NYSE. Breadth was even as advancers only narrowly outnumbered decliners on the Nasdaq exchange and on the NYSE. There were 48 high-ranked companies from the CANSLIM.net Leaders List made new 52-week highs and appeared on the CANSLIM.net BreakOuts Page, up from the prior session total of 34 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 7 of the 13 high-ranked companies currently included on the Featured Stocks Page.

 

Investors are awaiting the conclusion of the Fed's policy meeting. Market action was also attributed to investors digesting the latest economic and earnings releases. Before the open, a report showed May home prices increased by the most in more than seven years. A separate report revealed consumer confidence declined in July.

On the earnings front, Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co (GT +8.92%) climbed as its quarterly results topped analyst projections. Coach Inc(COH -7.87%) retreated after the handbag maker reported a -12% decline in profits. Tech and industrials were the best performing sectors on the session.  Rockwell Automation Inc (ROK +5.61%) advanced following its increased full-year forecast. Telecom was the worst performing group with Verizon Communications Inc (VZ -2.08%) finishing lower. Agricultural chemical maker The Mosaic Co (MOS -17.28%) tumbled after a Russian company said it would end limits on potash production.

Treasuries were little changed with the 10-year note flat to yield 2.60%.

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.

PICTURED: The benchmark S&P 500 Index is consolidating in a tight range near its all-time highs with an +18.2% year-to-date gain.

Tech Sector Rose and Defensive Groups Fell

The Nasdaq Composite Index outpaced its peers as the tech sector saw unanimous gains from the Internet Index ($IIX +0.67%), Semiconductor Index ($SOX +1.20%), Biotechnology Index ($BTK +1.21%), and the Networking Index ($NWX +2.66%). The influential Broker/Dealer Index ($XBD -0.13%), Bank Index ($BKX +0.08%), and Retail Index ($RLX +0.10%) showed no decisiveness.  Energy-related shares were also quiet as the Integrated Oil Index ($XOI -0.51%) edged lower while the Oil Services Index ($OSX +0.12%) finished with a tiny gain. Meanwhile, defensive groups had a negative bias as the Healthcare Index ($HMO -0.89%) and the Gold & Silver Index ($XAU -0.84%) both lost ground.

PICTURED: The Networking Index ($NWX +2.66%) powered to a new 2013 high with a standout gain leading the tech sector higher.

Gapped Up Following Strong Earnings News

Generac Hldgs Inc (GNRC  +$2.17 or +5.29%  to $43.20) was highlighted in yellow with pivot point based on its 7/17/13 high plus 10 cents with an annotated weekly graph in the earlier mid-day report (read here). The daily graph annotated below shows how the high-ranked Electrical - Power/Equipment firm gapped up today and hit a new 52-week high with a considerable gain backed by more than 2 times average volume, triggering a technical buy signal while rallying from an advanced "3-weeks tight" base. It just reported earnings +64% on +45% sales for the June '13 quarter versus the year ago period. Recent quarterly comparisons show impressive sequential acceleration in its sales revenues and earnings growth, making it a better match with the C criteria of the fact-based system. Previously noted consensus estimates calling for FY '13 earnings growth of +9% and FY '14 at 0%, and its currently low P/E valuation (0.7 X SP) suggest a timid outlook for future growth, which is cause for some concern.

The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 201 in Dec '12 to 346 in Jun '13, an encouraging sign concerning the I criteria. Its current Up/Down Volume Ratio of 1.7 is also an unbiased indication that it shares have been under accumulation over the past 50 days. Disciplined investors avoid chasing stocks if they get extended more than +5% above their pivot point, and they always limit losses by selling if any stock falls more than -7% from their purchase price.


Color Codes Explained :
Y - Better candidates highlighted by our staff of experts.
