Hitting New 52-Week High and New Pivot Point Cited - Tuesday, May 06, 2014

Power Solutions Int'l Inc (PSIX +$1.17 or +1.37% to $86.46) hit a new 52-week high today with a volume-driven gain. No resistance remains due to overhead supply. Its color code was changed to yellow with new pivot point cited based on its 3/11/14 high plus 10 cents. Subsequent volume-driven gains above the pivot point may trigger a proper technical buy signal. If bullish action triggers a technical buy signal members are still cautioned that 3 out of 4 stocks tend to move in the same direction of the major averages (M criteria). Confirming gains from the major averages are still needed as reassurance the broader market is strong.

The high-ranked firm from the Machinery - General Industrial group has tallied multiple gains back by above average volume since last shown in this FSU section on 4/14/14 with annotated graphs under the headline, "Halted Slide After Slump Below 50-Day Moving Average". Disciplined investors avoid chasing stocks more than +5% above prior highs and always sell if any stock falls more than -7% from their purchase price.  The 50-day moving average (DMA) line defines near-term support to watch.

PSIX was highlighted in yellow with a pivot point cited based on its 2/21/14 high in the 2/28/14 mid-day report (read here). It stalled shortly after its 3/06/14 technical breakout, having made only a little headway into new high territory. It reported earnings +26% on +17% sales revenues for the Dec '13 quarter, its 3rd consecutive quarter with earnings above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 6 in Mar '13 to 125 in Mar '14, a reassuring trend concerning the I criteria. The small supply of only 4.33 million shares (S criteria) can contribute to greater price volatility in the event of institutional buying or selling. Additional leadership in the Machinery -  General Industrial group (L criteria) is reassuring.
