Volume Totals Picked Up Behind Smaller Gains

The volume totals were reported higher than the prior session on both the Nasdaq exchange and the NYSE behind Wednesday's gains. That revealed slightly better institutional buying demand as advancers led decliners by more than 2-1 on the NYSE and led by a narrow 7-6 margin on the Nasdaq exchange. However, the volume totals still were below average. The small percentage gains for the major averages also were not substantial enough to be considered the follow-through day that is still needed as a confirmation to the current rally attempt. New 52-week highs outnumbered new 52-week lows on both the Nasdaq exchange and the NYSE. There were 71 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 the total of 67 on the prior session. However, there were only 5 gainers out of the 14 high-ranked leaders currently included on the Featured Stocks Page, a divergence by high-ranked leaders against the backdrop of a mostly positive market.

 

The markets welcomed Greece's vote to approve debt-reduction measures and a report that pending home sales climbed. Commodities rose as the dollar weakened on the news out of Europe. Meanwhile, crude oil has recouped almost all of its declines since last week's announcement of the release from strategic reserves.

Bank of America Corp (BAC +2.96%) rallied after settling a major lawsuit. MasterCard Inc (MA +11.3% and Visa Inc (V +15.0%) jumped on word that the Federal Reserve would set a cap on debit-card fees higher than the initial proposal.

The S&P 500 Index has yet to produce a solid follow-through day after completing Day 10, of its rally attempt, while last Tuesday's gain was labeled as "borderline" in the commentary (read here).

A follow-through day (FTD) from at least one of the major averages occurring between Day 4 and Day 7 of a new rally is considered the most ideal confirmation of a new rally attempt. To produce a solid FTD there should be a gain of at least +1.4% or more from at least one of the major averages, and the gain must come with higher volume and an expansion in leadership (new 52-week highs). Meanwhile, any deterioration under the Day 1 lows would officially end the nascent rally attempt and signal that the market's correction is continuing.

PICTURED: The Wednesday's gain marked Day 3 of a new rally attempt for the Dow Jones Industrial Average.  It rose above its recent highs with its 3rd consecutive gain on below average volume.

Healthcare Index Hits New 2011 High

The financial indexes finally showed some strength as the Broker/Dealer Index ($XBD +2.27%) and Bank Index ($BKX +2.38%) posted solid gains, both rising for a 3rd consecutive session Wednesday.  Commodity-linked groups also had a positive bias as the Integrated Oil Index ($XOI +1.39%), Oil Services Index ($OSX +1.81%), and the Gold & Silver Index ($XAU +2.11%) rallied. The Internet Index ($IIX +1.06%) and Networking Index ($NWX +0.80%) led the tech sector while the Biotechnology Index ($BTK +0.35%) posted a smaller gain, but the Semiconductor Index ($SOX -0.09%) ended the session slightly in the red.  Meanwhile, the Retail Index ($RLX +0.09%) and the Healthcare Index ($HMO +0.30%) quietly edged higher.

Prior Highs Acted As Support Following Powerful Breakout

Solarwinds Inc (SWI +$0.34 or +1.33% to $25.97) finished at its 2nd best close today, rising toward its 52-week high. Prior resistance in the $24-25 area defines support, and a subsequent close under its old high close ($24.77 on 4/25/11) would raise concerns by negating its recent breakout. Typically about 40% of successful breakouts pull back and test support at prior highs before continuing higher. In its last appearance in this FSU section on 6/08/11 an annotated graph was included under the headline, "Favorable Set-Up In Weak Market Environment", it was perched -2.9% off its all-time high with no overhead supply to hinder its progress. Its color code was changed to yellow when it was featured in the 6/07/11 mid-day report (read here) after an orderly base with pivot point based upon its 52-week high plus 10 cents.

Disciplined investors know that to trigger a buy signal this high-ranked Internet - Network Solutions group leader needed a gain above its pivot point with sufficient volume. Its powerful breakout came on 6/14/11, and that big volume-driven gain also helped it clear the April 2010 high that was reached while it survived but failed to impress since it was dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 10/28/09. It reported earnings +31% on +25% sales revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 versus the year ago period. Prior quarterly comparisons showed sales and earnings near the investment system guidelines. The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 291 in June '10 to 313 in Mar '11, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria of the fact-based investment system. One concern that overrides all of its bullish characteristics, however, is the M criteria. Most stocks have faltered along with the broader market in recent weeks, making this outlier an exception.


Color Codes Explained :
Y - Better candidates highlighted by our staff of experts.
G - Previously featured in past reports as yellow but may no longer be buyable under the guidelines.

Recent lows near $75 define important support to watch below initial support at its 50 DMA line.

A new pivot point is not cited, however some may consider its latest consolidation a new "square box" type base pattern. Prior lows in the $37 area define support to watch.
