Major Indices Were Little Changed and Remain Near Record Highs

The Dow gained 10 points closing at a record high, while the S&P 500 lost 0.2%. The Nasdaq Composite ticked down 0.1%. Decliners led advancers by a 5-4 margin on the NYSE and 8-7 on the Nasdaq exchange. Volume totals reported were lighter than the prior session on both major exchanges. There were 44 high-ranked companies from the Leaders List that hit a new 52-week high and were listed on the BreakOuts Page, versus the total of 33 on the prior session. New 52-week highs totals solidly outnumbered new 52-week lows totals on the NYSE but new lows slightly outnumbered new highs on the Nasdaq exchange. The major indices (M criteria) are in a "confirmed uptrend" after enduring distributional pressure in recent weeks. The Featured Stocks Page provides the most timely analysis on high-ranked leaders.

PICTURED: The Nasdaq Composite Index is hovering near its record high. 

U.S. equities finished the day mixed as investors weighed U.S.-China trade developments and escalating tensions in Hong Kong. Over the weekend President Trump commented that negotiations with China are moving along “very nicely,” but made clear that an agreement has not been reached and tariffs would not be eliminated. A violent turn of protests in Hong Kong further promoted a perceived “risk-off” mood around the globe. Today’s mixed session follows a record setting week on Wall Street, in which the Dow and S&P 500 both topped all-time highs and recorded their fifth straight weekly advance, the longest such streak since February. There were no notable economic data releases today, and bond markets were closed in observance of the Veteran’s Day holiday.

Eight of 11 S&P 500 sectors finished the session in negative territory with the Real Estate and Industrial sectors advancing. In corporate news, Boeing (BA +4.55%) rose after announcing that it expects to resume deliveries of the 737 MAX in December, as well as resume commercial flights in January 2020. Alibaba (BABA -0.24%) ended the day essentially flat, despite the Chinese e-commerce giant breaking the record for sales figure during its “Singles’ Day” event. Shares of Walgreens Boots Alliance (WBA +5.08%) rose amid news private equity firm KKR formally offered to take the pharmacy retail giant private. Shares of Tesla (TSLA +2.36%) rose after receiving a price target increase on Wall Street.

Reversed Into Red Today After Touching New High

Fortinet Inc (FTNT -$0.28 or -0.29% to $95.95) finished lower after highlighted in yellow with new pivot point cited based on its 4/16/19 high plus 10 cents in the earlier mid-day report (read here). There was a "negative reversal" after hitting a new all-time high today, breaking a streak of 3 consecutive volume-driven gains. Subsequent gains and a strong close above the pivot point backed by at least +40% above average volume is needed to trigger a proper new (or add-on) technical buy signal.

FTNT gapped up on 11/01/19 helping its outlook to improve. Bullish action came after it reported earnings +37% on +21% sales revenues for the Sep '19 quarter versus the year ago period, its 7th consecutive quarterly comparison with earnings above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). It was last shown in this FSU section on 4/10/19 with an annotated graph under the headline, "Volume-Driven Gain Cleared Flat Base and Little Resistance Remains". It was dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 5/13/19 due to weak technical action, however, its fundamentals remained strong. Annual earnings (A criteria) have been improving since FY '14, also helping it match with the fact-based investment system's guidelines.

The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 960 in Jun '18 to 1,557 in Sep '19, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. Its current Up/Down Volume ratio of 1.4 is an unbiased indication its shares have been under accumulation over the past 50 days. It has a Timeliness rating of A and Sponsorship rating of B.
