Major Averages Fell With Higher Volume and Negative Breadth
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
For the week, the Dow Jones Industrial Average managed to rise +0.1%, the benchmark S&P 500 Index rose +0.3%, but the Nasdaq Composite Index retreated -1.3%. Friday's session marked the 25th anniversary of the 1987 market crash, and the major averages finished firmly in negative territory amid concerns surrounding corporate profits. The volume totals were reported higher on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange versus the prior session's totals, a sign that institutional investors including large mutual funds were unloading stocks more aggressively. Breadth was decisively negative as decliners led advancers by a 7-2 margin on the NYSE and by a 4-1 margin on the Nasdaq exchange. The total number of new 52-week highs still outnumbered new 52-week lows on the NYSE, but new lows outnumbered new highs again on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 19 high-ranked companies from the CANSLIM.net Leaders List that made new 52-week highs and appeared on the CANSLIM.net BreakOuts Page, down from the prior session total of 56 stocks. There were gains for only 2 of the 22 high-ranked companies currently included on the Featured Stocks Page.

Stocks ended the week on a down note. The market's technical stance (M criteria) was hurt while Nasdaq Composite Index violated last week's lows and slumped well below its 50-day moving average (DMA) line. Meanwhile, the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the benchmark S&P 500 Index each slumped back near their respective 50 DMA lines and near last week's lows.

Shares of General Electric Company (GE -3.42%) fell and McDonald's Corp (MCD -4.42%) lost ground after both Dow components posted disappointing quarterly results. Chipotle Mexican Grill (CMG -15.01%) tumbled after the casual dining chain lowered its growth forecast. Technology was the worst performing sector on Friday's session. Microsoft Corp (MSFT -2.90%) edged lower after the company posted earnings below consensus projections. Google Inc (GOOG -1.90%) was down to extend its decline after Thursday's premature earnings release, which missed analyst estimates. Apple Inc (AAPL -3.60%) also closed lower.

Honeywell International Inc (HON +1.74%) and Capital One Financial Corp (COF +6.02%) were notable gainers after reporting earnings ahead of analyst projections.

Treasuries were higher with the 10-year note gaining 5/8 to yield 1.76%.

In market corrections the M criteria argues against new buying efforts. However, leadership remains somewhat encouraging as a respectable number of stocks has continued hitting new 52-week highs. Investors should continue watching individual holdings very carefully through the current earnings season and be prepared to take quick action. Keep a watchlist of strong acting stocks with all-key criteria in anticipation of the next confirmed uptrend. See the noteworthy candidates included on the Featured Stocks Page.

PICTURED: The Nasdaq Composite Index slumped under prior lows and fell toward its 200-day moving average (DMA) line with a damaging loss on above average volume.

Tech Sector Led Broad-Based Losses
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
Big losses from the Biotechnology Index ($BTK -3.03%) and the Semiconductor Index ($SOX -3.02%) led the tech sector lower, followed by losses of greater than -2% from the Internet Index ($IIX -2.20%) and the Networking Index ($NWX -2.14%). Financial shares were a negative influence on the major averages as the Broker/Dealer Index ($XBD -2.79%) outpaced the Bank Index ($BKX -0.69%) to the downside. Energy-related shares drifted lower and led to losses for the Oil Services Index ($OSX -1.58%) and the Integrated Oil Index ($XOI -1.36%). The Retail Index ($RLX -1.17%) also created a drag on the major averages. Defensive groups gave investors no reward as the Healthcare Index ($HMO -0.95%) also slumped and the Gold & Silver Index ($XAU -0.14%) inched lower.

PICTURED: The Broker/Dealer Index ($XBD -2.79%) slumped near its 50-day moving average (DMA) line again.

Resilient Action Following Prior Shakeouts
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam

L K Q Corp (LKQ -$0.37 or -1.77% to $20.43) is perched near its all-time high following volume-driven gains. It will release third quarter 2012 financial results on Thursday, October 25, 2012, before the market opens. Volume and volatility often increase near earnings news.

LKQ was highlighted in yellow with pivot point based on its 6/19/12 high plus 10 cents in the 8/09/12 mid-day report (read here). A solid gain with +55% above average volume while rising above its pivot point triggered a technical buy signal. Action has been mostly bullish in recent weeks, however a new pivot point was not cited due to its choppy action and the lack of meaningful price progress following the prior technical breakout. Do not be confused by a 2:1 share split effective 9/19/12 (Featured Price, Pivot Point and Max Buy were adjusted). Recently the high-ranked the Retail/Wholesale - AutoParts firm rallied well above its "max buy" level, unhindered by resistance remaining due to overhead supply.

Its last appearance in this FSU section was on 9/17/12 with an annotated graph under the headline, "Consolidating Under 'Max Buy' Level Again", as it retreated below its "max buy" level and its color code was changed to yellow. It found prompt support after shakeouts below its 50-day moving average (DMA) line intra-day on 9/24/12 and 9/25/12 very likely forced disciplined investors to sell and protect their interest.

It reported earnings +31% on +32% sales revenues for the Jun '12 quarter. Three of the past 4 quarters showed earnings increases above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). The company also has maintained a strong annual earnings (A criteria) growth history. It changed its ticker symbol (from LKQX) and found support above its 200 DMA line in recent months. It had survived but failed to impress since dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 4/09/08.

One concern previously noted is the group's below average Group Relative Strength Rating (E - see red circle) while other leaders in the group have struggled in recent months. However, ownership by top-rated funds rose from 456 in Sep '11 to 569 in Sep '12, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. Its current Up/Down Volume Ratio of 1.3 is an unbiased indication that its shares have been under accumulation over the past 50 days.

Color Codes Explained :
Y - Better candidates highlighted by our staff of experts.
G - Previously featured in past reports as yellow but may no longer be buyable under the guidelines.

Most Recent Note - 10/19/2012 4:34:01 PM Failed to rebound and edged lower with above average volume today. Based on fundamental and technical concerns it will be dropped from the Featured Stocks list tonight. Gapped down on 10/18/12 for a considerable loss after reporting earnings +4% on +8% sales for the Sep '12 quarter, well below the +25% minimum earnings guideline, and its color code was changed to green. This Medical - Supplies firm built an orderly base above its 50 DMA line and above prior highs in the $36 area, however it slumped under its 50 DMA line since highlighted in yellow with pivot point cited based on its 9/13/12 high plus 10 cents in the 10/17/12 mid-day report (read here) while noted - "Disciplined investors may watch for volume-driven gains above its pivot point which are needed to trigger a new technical buy signal. Last noted in the 7/27/12 mid-day report - 'Earnings rose +70% on +21% sales revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 versus the year ago period, marking a 3rd consecutive quarterly earnings increase above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). Its annual earnings (A criteria) history has been good following a downturn in FY '08. Patient and disciplined investors may watch for a proper base to form while it continues consolidating.'"
