 CLOSING  MARKET COMMENTARY  
Major Averages Fall Hard on Higher Volume Institutional Selling Pressure

The major US averages plunged on heavy volume to fresh multi-month lows as selling intensified. Volume totals on both the Nasdaq exchange and the NYSE were noticeably higher than the prior session's levels, largely due to quadruple witching which is the simultaneous expiration of options as the quarter comes to an end. Decliners trumped advancers by more than a 4-to-1 ratio on the Nasdaq exchange and by a greater than 3-to-1 ratio on the NYSE. There were only 15 high-ranked companies from the CANSLIM.net Leaders List that made new 52-week highs and appeared on the CANSLIM.net BreakOuts Page, sharply lower from the 46 issues that appeared on the prior session.  The total number of stocks making new 52-week lows still easily outnumbered stocks making new 52-week highs on the both major exchanges lower.

Oil prices continued their relentless move higher as tensions escalated in Nigeria and the Middle East. Oil rallied over +2% and ended the week relatively unchanged at $134.62 a barrel. Over the weekend, several of the world's largest oil producers are set to meet in Saudi Arabia to discuss record high oil prices. Saudi Arabia called the meeting in response to the recent surge in oil. Saudi Arabia is largely expected to lobby its peers to increase production to help offset robust demand.

On a weekly basis, the major averages' collective action was weak at best. Earlier this week, the benchmark S&P 500 Index and the Dow Jones Industrial Average ended their latest rally attempts when they undercut their recent lows. However, the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite has not violated its June 12th lows, which means that its current rally attempt is still intact. Remember, that the overall market remains in a correction which means that 3 out of 4 growth stocks will likely decline.  This reiterates the importance of playing strong defense.

PICTURED: The S&P 500 Index fell on higher volume to new multi-month lows.  Losses this week ended its latest rally attempt before a proper follow-through day ever occurred.

Retail, Financial, & Tech Groups Face More Pressure

Widespread losses were led by the very influential Retail Index ($RLX -3.25%) and the financial sector as the Broker/Dealer ($XBD -2.93%)  and Bank ($BKX -1.18%) indexes faced more pressure.  The tech sector also ended widely lower as the Semiconductor ($SOX -2.83%) and Networking ($NWX -2.04%) indexes outpaced the Biotechnology Index ($BTK -0.91%) to the downside and the Internet Index ($DOT -0.00%) ended unchanged. The Gold & Silver Index ($XAU -0.01%) was also near unchanged.  The Healthcare ($HMO -0.87%) group and energy shares also lost ground as the Integrated Oil ($XOI -0.94%) and Oil Services ($OSX -0.55%) indexes backpedaled.

PICTURED: The Semiconductor Index ($SOX -2.83%) is trading below its 50-day moving average (DMA) line, and the tech sector weakness has hurt the Nasdaq Composite's rally attempt.

Latest Notes on All Featured Stocks | Recently Featured Stock Updates

The stocks below have been recently featured by CANSLIM.net. Our experts monitor these stocks and post updates on noteworthy action here.

Distributional Action Negated Recent Breakout

A very important technical tool that savvy investors have learned to incorporate in their technical analysis is the 50-day moving average (DMA) line.  The 50 DMA line plays a pivotal role relative to a stock's price.  If the price of a stock is above its 50 DMA then odds are that its 50 DMA will act as formidable support.  Conversely, if the price is below its 50 DMA then the moving average acts as resistance.  Healthy stocks sometimes trade under their 50 DMA lines briefly, but usually a strong candidate will promptly bounce and repair a 50 DMA violation. When a stock has violated its 50 DMA line and then lingers beneath it, the stock's outlook gets worse and worse as it spends a greater period of time trading under that important short-term average line. Once the 50 DMA line starts sloping downward it should also be acknowledged that the stock has been struggling for a while, and it might be time to reduce exposure and look for places to put that money to work in stronger buy candidates.

Mastercard Inc. (MA -$8.59 or -3.12% to $284.01) ended lower with a loss on below average volume.  This high-ranked leader has been consolidating its recent move above its 50 DMA line, and it is important to watch for any breach of its 50 DMA which would raise concerns. The present market (M criteria) now argues for good defense, and investors with hard earned profits might also watch the upward trendline it is presently testing as an initial support level. Meanwhile, a violation of its chart lows near $270 could complete an ominous "double top" pattern, triggering a more worrisome technical sell signal.  Mastercard has shown solid earnings growth and accelerating sales revenues growth in recent quarterly comparisons, and it also has an attractive annual earnings growth history that helps to satisfy the C and A criteria. MA sports very healthy ranks, and faces very little resistance due to overhead supply now. Its Earnings Per Share (EPS) stands at a firm 99 and its Relative Strength (RS) rating is a very solid 97.  The number of top-rated funds owning an interest in its shares rose from 156 in Jun '07 to 293 in Mar '08, helping to satisfy the I criteria.

This stock was first featured on Wednesday, October 31, 2007 in the CANSLIM.net Mid Day Breakouts Report (read here) with a $169.42 pivot point and a $177.89 maximum buy price. At the time, the stock was at $184.95 and triggering a technical buy signal as it experienced a "break-away" gap. A breakaway gap has been noted as one exception to the usual guideline of buying stocks no more than +5% above their pivot point. Since its 10/31/07 appearance in yellow the stock has traded as much as +73% higher. On 3/20/08 its color code was changed to yellow and a new pivot point was noted (read here). It made quiet progress afterward, until another big breakaway gap up on 4/29/08.  Since then, another new pivot point of $301.53 and a $316.61 maximum buy price emerged and were noted on Tuesday, June 3, 2008 in the CANSLIM.net Mid Day Breakouts Report (read here).  However, it negated its latest breakout and fell back into the prior base with losses on heavy volume indicative of institutional selling pressure or distribution.

Y - This week it encountered resistance while continuing to trade below its 50 DMA line. A gap down and loss on 6/10/08 violated recent chart lows and triggered a sell signal. Its 50 DMA line violation on 6/09/08 was also noted as it raised concerns. Featured in the 5/29/08 CANSLIM.net Mid-Day BreakOuts Report (read here) as it hit new multi-year highs with a considerable gain with volume running at an above average pace. Earnings and sales increases have improved in recent quarterly comparisons. Gapped up on 12/21/07 when we noted that its recent quarters showed improving sales and earnings. Featured in the August 2004 issue of CANSLIM.net News, but it later fell out of favor and was dropped from the Featured Stocks list, making it a "turn around story" now.

Watch for any breach of its short term average or recent chart lows near $270 which could complete an ominous "double top" pattern, triggering a technical sell signal. Weakness on 6/06/08 technically negated its breakout achieved when it gapped up on 5/29/08 for a gain to new all-time highs with heavy volume. Updated on 3/23/08 in the Special Report Series (Part 1) - Dow Jones Industrial Average Follow Through (read here). First featured in the November 2007 issue of CANSLIM.net News (read here). Number of top-rated funds owning an interest rose from 156 in Jun '07 to 292 in Mar '08, a strong sign of institutional buying demand (the I criteria).

Y - Gapped down today for a small loss aftter reaching all-time highs with 5 consecutive gains. Recent gains were noted for their lack of volume conviction since bouncing at support near its 50 DMA line. New pivot point and max buy levels were noted, however a proper technical buy signal requires gains above the pivot point to be backed by at least +50% above average volume or more. Also, the M criteria argues against any new buying efforts until a proper follow-through day occurs. It recovered impressively while its fundamentals remained strong. Based on weak technical action, it was dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 1/7/08. Coverage on 11/12/07 highlighted analysis of its 50-day moving average violation that followed a huge run up (see details and annotated graph here). This long-time favorite rose at least 16-fold after first featured in the December 2003 issue of our monthly newsletter, CANSLIM.net News (read here).

Y - Consolidating for the past couple of weeks, pulling back on light volume to just above prior chart highs in the $37 area - now an important chart support level. Color code is changed to yellow based on quiet pullback under its max buy level. Featured in the 5/16/08 CANSLIM.net Mid-Day BreakOuts Report (read here) and in the Featured Stock Update section of the 5/16/08 CANSLIM.net After Market Update with more detailed analysis and an annotated graph (read here). Reported impressive earnings news and gapped up for a considerable gain on heavy volume, blasting above the $37 area to new multi-year highs. It has a strong quarterly and annual earnings (C & A criteria) history, but its sales revenue growth rate has been below the +25% guideline. That suggests there is not extremely great demand for a new product or service (the N criteria), however its solid fundamentals and good leadership (the L criteria) from other Computer Software - Enterprise issues are nice reassurances.

Y - Considerable loss today has it testing its 200 DMA line and recent chart lows. Weak action led to a 50 DMA violations since its reversal from a new all-time high on 6/05/08, when it encountered prompt resistance at prior chart highs in the $72 area (near its max buy level). Reported good earnings and raised guidance, however sales revenues increases have been lackluster. See the Featured Stock Update section of the 4/09/08 CANSLIM.net After Market Update for analysis and an annotated graph (read here).

Y - Wider intra-day swings in recent weeks are a sign of uncertainty while it is consolidating above support at its 50 DMA line, under its pivot point. See the Featured Stock Update section of the 6/12/08 CANSLIM.net After Market Update for analysis and an annotated graph (read here). Losses on heavy volume led to a pullback near its 50 DMA line after it negatively reversed on 6/06/08 from new all-time highs. Considerable gain on 6/05/08 with heavy volume helped it technically break out to all-time highs following a previously noted 7-month cup-shaped pattern. It has high ranks and apparently good sales revenues and earnings growth, however some concerns are raised by either re-statements or quarterly pre-tax, non-recurring items included in every quarterly financial report in recent years.

Y - Pulling back toward its 50 DMA line today after 6 consecutive gains. Previously noted 5/22/08 gap down and loss on above average volume which raised concerns as it fell below its pivot point. Featured in the 5/19/08 CANSLIM.net Mid-Day BreakOuts Report (read here) after it gapped up and hit a new all-time high, following prior gaps up on 5/01/08 and 4/16/08. Good annual earnings history and 3 consecutive quarterly reports have shown sales revenues and earnings increases both above the +25% guideline (good C and A criteria). Number of top-rated funds owning an interest rose from 94 in Jun '07 to 159 in Mar '08, helping satisfy the I criteria.

Y - Hit a new all-time high above its max buy level today and then negatively reversed . Support to watch is near its 50 DMA line and prior chart highs in the $42 area. Just featured again in yellow in the June 2008 issue of CANSLIM.net News (see here). Recently featured in the 5/29/08 CANSLIM.net Mid-Day BreakOuts Report (read here) when hitting new all-time highs. Its May breakout lacked great volume conviction, however it fully recovered since, based on weak technical action, it was dropped from the Featured Stocks list 1/11/2008. High ranks and strong earnings history (good C and A criteria). Increasing ownership by top-rated funds, rising from 153 in Dec '06 to 239 in Mar '08, satisfies the I criteria.

Y - Gapped down today, then positively reversed to close the session at its absolute high. Perched near all-time highs, and volume has been quiet while consolidating above support at its 50 DMA line for the past 7 weeks. Subsequent violations of its short term average and its recent chart lows would be technical sell signals. It blasted to a new high after a positive reversal on 4/29/08 following reporting earnings per share +33% and sales +48%. Color code was changed to yellow again on 5/01/08 with new pivot point and max buy levels noted. Stock was covered in the Featured Stock Update section of the 3/19/08 CANSLIM.net After Market Update (read here). Gapped up on 2/21/08 from a base-on-base type pattern after its latest strong earnings report.

Loss on above average volume on 6/09/08 violated support at its 50 DMA line, upward trendline, and pivot point, raising concerns. Good earnings satisfy the C and A criteria. See the Featured Stock Update section of the 4/14/08 CANSLIM.net After Market Update for analysis and an annotated graph (read here). Its 4/18/08 gap up was a previously noted bullish technical indication of institutional accumulation (the I criteria) during its latest base.

Y - Perched near all-time highs after bouncing at its 50 DMA line. A 50 DMA violation would trigger a technical sell signal and raise more serious concerns. Concerns were raised as it negated its 6/05/08 breakout, encountering prompt distributional pressure when reaching new highs. Featured in the 6/06/08 CANSLIM.net Mid-Day BreakOuts Report (read here). Considerable gain on 6/05/08 for new all-time highs with twice its average volume helped it rise above its pivot point from a 6 month base. Earnings have been above the +25% guideline in 3 of its past 4 quarterly comparisons and it has a good annual earnings history (good C & A criteria). Lackluster sales revenues increases under the +25% guideline are some concern.

An upward trendline may serve as initial support in the $80 area, while deterioration leading to a violation would trigger an early sell signal. High-ranked firm is in the strong Oil & Gas Machinery/Equipment group (good L criteria). Featured in the 5/21/08 CANSLIM.net Mid-Day BreakOuts Report (read here) after it gapped up and hit a new all-time high with a considerable gain on above average volume, breaking out from a 7-month base. Good annual and quarterly earnings growth history (good C & A criteria), however decelerating sales and earnings are a concern.

Y - Consolidating above its pivot point and prior chart highs in the $42 area. Previously noted that its 6/06/08 gain lacked volume, and breakout gains need at least +50% above average volume to meet the guideline for a proper technical buy signal. This high-ranked leader has no overhead supply to hinder its progress. Gains in recent weeks have lacked volume conviction indicative of institutional (the I criteria) accumulation, however it found support near its 50 DMA line when it got hit on 5/01/08 after reporting quarterly results. Previously, strong confirming gains on 4/15/08 and 4/16/08 triggered a new technical buy signal as it rose above its pivot point on more than double its average volume.

Prior chart lows in the $24 area were previously noted as an important level to watch. See the Featured Stock Update section of the 5/27/08 CANSLIM.net After Market Update for analysis and an annotated graph (read here).
