Renewed concerns over the European debt crisis led to widespread losses on Monday. Volume totals were reported lighter on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange versus Friday's session totals, so at least institutional selling did not intensify. Decliners led advancers by mre than 4-1 on the NYSE and by more than 3-1 on the Nasdaq exchange.  New 52-week highs outnumbered new 52-week lows on the NYSE while new lows easily led new highs on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 12 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 29 stocks. There were gains for 5 of the 18 high-ranked companies currently included on the Featured Stocks Page.

The lack of a significant agreement caused ratings agency Moody's to reiterate their intent to review the European Union's credit rating in the first-quarter of 2012. Adding to the uncertainty was the lack of commitment from the European Central Bank in joining the bloc's plans to resolve the debt crisis.

Stocks extended their losses after the world's largest semiconductor maker, Intel Corp (INTC -4.04%), cut its revenue forecasts for the fourth-quarter on supply constraints. All major averages finished lower, albeit well off of session lows on a last minute rally. Tech stocks led the losses.

Financial shares also gave up more ground while the EU debt crisis concerns lingered. Bank of America Corp (BAC -4.72%) and Citigroup Inc (C -5.39%) fell. Energy stocks  Exxon Mobile Corp (XOM -1.59%) and Chevron Corp (CVX -1.13%) followed crude oil's decline to $98.19 per barrel.

PICTURED: The Nasdaq Composite Index faces resistance at its 200-day moving average (DMA) line and recent highs while now consolidating -9.5% off its 2011 high

Commodity-linked groups were among Monday's worst losers as the Gold & Silver Index ($XAU -3.42%),Oil Services Index ($OSX -3.34%), and Integrated Oil Index ($XOI -2.30%) fell.  Financial shares also created a drag on the major averages as the Broker/Dealer Index ($XBD -2.47%) and the Bank Index ($BKX -2.45%) slumped. The tech sector saw unanimous losses from the Semiconductor Index ($SOX -2.80%), Networking Index ($NWX -2.21%), Internet Index ($IIX -1.47%), and Biotechnology Index ($BTK -0.86%). The Healthcare Index ($HMO -1.75%) also fell, meanwhile the Retail Index ($RLX -0.58%) did a better job of avoiding damage but still ended with a modest loss.

PICTURED: The Broker/Dealer Index ($XBD -2.47%) sank under its 50-day moving average (DMA) line today.

Alexion Pharmaceuticals (ALXN +$0.05 or +0.08% to $65.11) has recently been sputtering below its 50-day moving average (DMA) line. Its prior low ($62.02 on 11/21/11) defines the next important near-term support level to watch. Any subsequent violation of its recent chart lows would trigger a more worrisome technical sell signal. Disciplined investors always limit losses by selling if a stock falls more than -7% from their buy point. Meanwhile, a repair of its 50 DMA violation and volume-driven gains are needed to trigger a new (or add-on) technical buy signal.

It was last shown in this FSU section on 11/14/11 with an annotated graph under the headline, "Support Found at 50-Day Moving Average; Secondary Buy Point," as it was finding good support near its 50-day moving average (DMA) line. It had been weeks since volume indicated any great decisiveness in direction. Its Relative Strength Rank (97) remains high, however the Relative Strength line (jagged blue line) has been recently slumping. When buying stocks, it is preferred to see the Relative Strength rank hitting new highs prior to the share price hitting new highs. ALXN has good ranks, and its strong quarterly and annual earnings history satisfies the C and A criteria. In prior months it found support well above its 200 DMA line. It rose from a previously noted "cup-with-high-handle" pattern as it gapped up on 9/15/11 and hit a new all-time high. The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 843 in Mar '11 to 1,003 in Sep '11, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria of the fact-based investment system.
