The major averages finished Monday's session with gains and the Nasdaq Composite Index ended higher by 46 points at 3,706, surging to new 2013 highs, signaling an encouraging shift as the market (M criteria) returned to a confirmed rally.  The volume totals were reported lighter than the prior session totals on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange, however, still leaving some questions as to the level of fresh institutional buying conviction. Breadth was clearly positive as advancers led decliners by nearly a 4-1 margin on the NYSE and by more than 3-1 on the Nasdaq exchange.  There were 52 high-ranked companies from the CANSLIM.net Leaders List that made new 52-week highs and appeared on the CANSLIM.net BreakOuts Page, a fair expansion in leadership from a total of 37 stocks on the prior session. The list of stocks hitting new 52-week highs outnumbered new lows on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. There were gains for 13 of the 18 high-ranked companies currently included on the Featured Stocks Page. 

As the major averages held their gains into the closing bell, the Dow Jones Industrial Average advanced 140 points to close the session at 15,063, its best level since mid-August. It remains below its 50-day moving average (DMA) line while the other major indices are both in healthier shape. The S&P 500 Index rebounded above its 50-day moving average (DMA) line, improving its technical stance on Monday. Equity markets steadily climbed throughout the session as investors overlooked ongoing tensions surrounding Syria. A better-than-expected report on Chinese exports helped boost sentiment.

All 10 sectors on the S&P closed higher, led by gains in material stocks. Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold Inc (FCX +2.1%) rose as copper prices edged higher. Shares of Apple Inc (AAPL +1.6%) were active in the session, rising ahead of their highly anticipated product event Tuesday. On the M&A front, Molex Inc (MOLX +31.6%) rallied after the company announced that it was being acquired by Koch Industries in a $7.2 billion deal.

Turning to fixed income markets, Treasuries were higher along the curve. The benchmark 10-year note was up 7/32 to yield 2.92% and the 30-year bond added about 1/4 of a point to yield 3.86%.

PICTURED: The Nasdaq Composite Index surged to new 2013 highs, signaling that the market (M criteria) is again in a confirmed rally.

Gains from the Broker/Dealer Index ($XBD +1.52%) and the Bank Index ($BKX +0.51%) underpinned the major averages gains on Monday. The Retail Index ($RLX +1.09%) rose and the tech sector saw unanimous gains from the Networking Index ($NWX +1.69%), Biotechnology Index ($BTK +2.49%), Semiconductor Index ($SOX +1.33%), and the Internet Index ($IIX +1.42%). Energy-related shares had a positive bias as the Oil Services Index ($OSX +1.52%) and the Integrated Oil Index ($XOI +0.79%) ratcheted higher. Meanwhile, defensive groups lagged as the Gold & Silver Index ($XAU -0.80%) and the Healthcare Index ($HMO -0.29%) both ended with small losses on Monday.

PICTURED: The Biotechnology Index ($BTK +2.49%) rallied to new 2013 highs.

MRLN's fundamentals remain strong and it found support near its 200-day moving average (DMA) line since dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 6/21/13. Recent quarterly comparisons through Jun '13 show strong earnings increases above the +25% minimum guideline satisfying the C criteria. Annual earnings (A criteria) growth has improved following the downturn in FY '08 and '09 (see red circle). It was last shown in this FSU section on 6/11/13 under the headline, "Found Support After Undercutting 50-Day Moving Average", but subsequent losses undercut a noted low ($21.49 on 5/23/13) raising more serious concerns.

The broader market (M criteria) has technically shifted into a confirmed rally, arguing in favor of new buying efforts again - see more in today's Market Commentary section.  However, MRLN hails from the Commercial Services - Leasing group which now has a 16 Group Relative Strength Rating, not a good sign concerning the L criteria. Return-On-Equity (see small red circle) is below the 17% minimum guideline.

With only 9.29 million shares (S criteria) in the publicly traded float it may be particularly volatile in the event of any institutional buying or selling. The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 111 in Mar '12 to 142 in Jun '13, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. Its current Up/Down Volume Ratio of 1.4 is an unbiased indication that its shares have been under accumulation over the past 50 days. The weekly graph below gives investors a longer term perspective, and shows it facing no resistance due to overhead supply.
