Wednesday's session ended with gains for the major averages. The volume totals were reported higher on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. Breadth was positive as advancers led decliners by 2-1 on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 73 high-ranked companies from the CANSLIM.net Leaders List that made new 52-week highs and appeared on the CANSLIM.net BreakOuts Page, up from 52 stocks on the prior session. The list of stocks hitting new 52-week highs expanded and easily outnumbered new lows on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange. There were gains for 18 of the 22 high-ranked companies currently included on the Featured Stocks Page.

Stocks resumed their record setting ways on Wednesday. The Dow gained 71 points to close at an all-time high of 15,821. The S&P 500 finished at its best level, rising 14 points to 1,782. The Nasdaq Composite Index advanced 46 points to 3,965.

The major averages ended a choppy trading session in positive territory as a rally by retailers offset uncertainty surrounding Fed policy. Shares of Macy's Inc (M +9.4%) rose after quarterly results topped consensus estimates. The market recovered from an early retreat attributed to speculation that recent positive economic reports may prompt the central bank to trim its stimulus measures. Attention will remain on policy makers with tomorrow’s Senate Banking Committee hearing for Vice Chairman Janet Yellen to become the new head of the Fed.

Eight of 10 sectors in the S&P 500 were higher with consumer discretionary up the most on the session. In addition to Macy’s, Abercrombie & Fitch Co (ANF +3.0%) and Nordstrom Inc (JWN +2.5%) rose. Over in tech, Google Inc (GOOG +2.0%) and Cisco Systems Inc (CSCO +1.1%) rose ahead of scheduled earnings releases after the closing bell.

Treasuries gained with the 10-year note up 11/32 to yield 2.73%.

Market (M criteria) conditions are encouraging as the major averages overcame their latest bout of distributional pressure. New buying efforts should still be limited and very selective.

PICTURED: The Integrated Oil Index ($XOI +0.69%) posted a modest gain, consolidating above prior highs.

FleetCor Technologies, Inc. (FLT +$2.17% or +1.89% to $116.99) inched higher with light volume for a best-ever close. It endured distributional pressure in recent weeks and did not form a sound base. Its 50-day moving average (DMA) line defines near-term support to watch on pullbacks. It was last shown in this FSU section on 10/07/13 with an annotated daily graph under the headline, "Extended After 13 Weekly Gains in Span of 14 Weeks". 

It is perched only -2.9% off its all-time high and no resistance remains due to overhead supply. The 9/06/13 summary, under the headline, "Holding Ground Following Latest Volume Driven Gains", showed a weekly graph where it recently rose with volume-driven gains from an advanced "3-weeks tight" base noted as a riskier "late stage" base. It had enjoyed a considerable rally even before the three latest Pivot Points (PP) were discussed on the ongoing coverage published while FLT has traded up as much as +69.39% since first featured in yellow at $71.14 in the mid-day report on 3/21/13 (read here). Disciplined investors avoid chasing stocks extended more than +5% above their pivot point or prior highs and always limit losses by selling any stock that falls more than -7% from their purchase price. 

It reported earnings +30% on +20% sales revenues for the Sep '13 quarter, marking its 7th consecutive quarterly comparison with earnings above the +25% guideline (C criteria). The company completed yet another Secondary Offering on 9/11/13. On 3/14/12, 6/11/12, 11/29/12, and 3/08/13 it priced Secondary Offerings and it was previously noted, "Such offerings often are a short-term hindrance to upward price progress yet typically result in broader institutional ownership interest."

The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 193 in Mar '12 to 473 in Sep '13, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. The company hails from the Finance - Credit Card Payment Processing group which improved to a 86 Group Relative Strength Rating from a 55 rating when shown in the FSU section on 7/18/13. Impressive strength and leadership from a couple of other firms in the same industry group is also considered a reassurance concerning the L criteria.
