Most Recent Note for ABB - 5/19/2011 12:12:58 PM
Churning heavy volume this week while not making meaningful price progress, a sign of distributional pressure. Consolidating above prior highs and its 50 DMA line defining support in the $24-25 area. Recent mid-day reports noted - "Quarterly and annual (C & A criteria) earnings and sales revenues history has not been strong and steady. Large supply of 2.28 billion outstanding shares could make it a stodgy and slow performer."

Gapped down today after reporting earnings that missed Street estimates. Trading near its 50 DMA line. Last noted in the 5/05/11 mid-day report - "Its 4 latest quarterly comparisons (C criteria) showed earnings increases above the +25% minimum guideline while sales revenues increases were in the +1-13% range and gradually accelerating. It is heavily owned by mutual funds already, and top-rated funds owning shares fell from 1,105 in Dec '10 to 1,062 in Mar '11, not a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. While consumers are fixing their old cars and holding off on new car purchases, AZO and similar players in the auto-repair arena have shown some leadership."
