Major Indices Hit Record Highs With Better Leadership

The S&P 500 added 0.2%, posting a new closing high after exceeding 3,100 for the first time during the session. The Dow ended the day unchanged, while the Nasdaq Composite closed up 0.3%, notching a fresh record level.. Decliners led advancers by a narrow margin on the NYSE while the mix was near even on the Nasdaq exchange. Volume totals reported were slightly higher than the prior session on both major exchanges. There were 64 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 44 on the prior session. New 52-week highs totals solidly outnumbered new 52-week lows totals on the NYSE and 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 Dow Jones Industrial Average is perched at its record high. 

Stocks finished mostly higher Tuesday as investors digested comments from President Trump and weighed corporate earnings results. In a lunchtime speech to the Economic Club of New York, President Trump noted that the initial part of a broader trade deal with Beijing could be finalized soon, but he also suggested that tariffs on Chinese goods would be increased substantially if no agreement is reached.

On the earnings front, D.R. Horton (DHI +3.08%) rose after the home construction company topped Wall Street profit forecasts and projected higher 2020 sales, citing strong demand and lower mortgage rates. Rockwell Automation (ROK +10.50%) rose following positive quarterly figures from the factory equipment maker. Advance Auto Parts (AAP -7.51%) fell after its same-store sales figure missed consensus estimates. CBS Corp. (CBS -3.62%) fell after delivering disappointing revenue figures amid a sharp decline in advertisement sales. Tyson Foods (TSN +7.43%) rose following positive remarks concerning the company’s move into alternative meats. In other corporate news, Disney (DIS +1.35%) rose following the launch of its new Disney+ streaming service.

Treasuries strengthened with the yield on the 10-year note down three basis points to 1.91%. On the data front, the NFIB reported that small business optimism improved in October. In commodities, WTI crude slipped 0.1% to $56.80/barrel, while COMEX gold rose 0.1% to $1,458.80/ounce, still near its lowest level since August.

Perched Near High Following Recent Volume-Driven Gains

Topbuild Corp (BLD +$1.01 or +0.95% to $107.32) is consolidating after getting very extended from any sound base with volume-driven gains last week for new all-time highs. Recently it reported earnings +24% on +5% sales revenues for the Sep '19 quarter versus the year ago period, just below the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). It still has a 98 Earnings Per Share Rating, as its annual earnings (A criteria) history has also been strong and steady since turning profitable in FY '14.

BLD was last shown in this FSU section on 10/23/19 with an annotated graph under the headline, "Pulling Back After Recently Wedging Into New High Territory". It was highlighted in yellow with new pivot point cited based on its 8/12/18 high plus 10 cents in the 5/17/19 mid-day report (read here). It found prompt support near its 50-day moving average (DMA) line ($98.13) during its ongoing ascent.

The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 380 in Dec '18 to 453 in Sep '19.   Its current Up/Down Volume Ratio of 1.1 is an unbiased indication its shares have been under slight accumulation over the past 50 days. It has a Timeliness Rating of A and a Sponsorship Rating of D.
