Major Averages Show Further Signs of Distributional Pressure
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
The S&P 500 declined 0.4% after briefly dipping below the 3,900 level. The Nasdaq Composite shed 0.7%, dropping for a seventh straight session in its longest losing streak since November 2016. The Dow lost 173 points. The volume totals reported were higher than the prior session on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange, indicating an increase in institutional selling. Breadth was negative as decliners led advancers by more than a 2-1 margin on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 0 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit new 52-week highs and were listed on the BreakOuts Page for the 5th consecutive session. New 52-week lows totals expanded and solidly outnumbered new 52-week highs on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. The market uptrend is now under pressure (M criteria). Any sustainable rally requires a healthy crop of leading stocks hitting new highs.

PICTURED: The Nasdaq Composite Index violated its 50-day moving average (DMA) line during a streak of 7 consecutive losses. Its rebound met resistance well below its 200 DMA line.
U.S. equities finished lower in a volatile session on Tuesday despite strong economic data. On the data front, the Institute for Supply Management’s (ISM) services sector index unexpectedly improved to 56.9 in August, the highest level since April as business activity and new orders increased and price pressures eased. The figure follows Friday’s jobs report, which showed the U.S. economy added a greater-than-expected 315,000 non-farm payrolls in August, though the unemployment rate climbed to 3.7%. Today’s ISM figure and the strong jobs report point to a resilient U.S. economy, which may bolster the Federal Reserve’s (Fed) case for continuing to act aggressively in hiking rates in order to tame inflation.
Following the release, Treasuries weakened along the curve. The yield on the 10-year note climbed 15 basis points (0.15%) to 3.34%, its highest level since mid-June. The yield on the more Fed-sensitive two-year note jumped 11 basis points (0.11%) to 3.50%. In commodities, West Texas Intermediate crude snapped a two-day rally, closing down 0.1% to $86.79/barrel as demand concerns outweighed news that the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and its allies (OPEC+) would cut production in October. Seven of 11 S&P 500 sectors ended in negative territory, with Real Estate, Utilities, Industrials and Health Care bucking the downtrend. |

Recently Slipped Below Pivot Point Testing 50-Day Average
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
Graphic Packaging Hldg (GPK +$0.19 or +0.85% to $22.59) stalled since its 8/10/22 breakout and slumped back below its pivot point. Now it is consolidating just above its 50-day moving average (DMA) line ($22.00) which defines important near-term support. More damaging losses would raise greater concerns.
GPK has a 98 Earnings Per Share Rating. Earnings rose +108% on +36% sales revenues for the Jun '22 quarter versus the year ago period. Three of the past 4 quarterly comparisons were above the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria). Its annual earnings history has been good since a downturn in FY '16 and '17, meeting the fact-based investment system's fundamental guidelines (A criteria).
The Paper & Paper Products group is ranked 71st on the 197 Industry Groups list and it has a B+ Group Relative Strength Rating (L criteria). The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 596 in Sep '21 to 644 in Jun '22, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. Its current Up/Down Volume Ratio of 1.5 is an unbiased indication its shares have been under accumulation over the past 50 days.

Y - Testing its 50 DMA line ($36.41) with today's 5th consecutive loss on lighter than average volume while slumping below prior resistance in the $39 area. Confirming gains above the pivot point backed by at least +40% above average volume would be a reassuring sign of fresh institutional buying.

Y - Color code was changed to yellow this week while quietly consolidating back below its "max buy" level. Noted gain and strong close above the pivot point backed by +116% above average volume on 8/12/22 triggered a technical buy signal. No resistance remains due to overhead supply. Fundamentals remain strong. Prior high in the $115 area defines important near-term support to watch on pullbacks.
