Markets ended the week Friday with losses, but did manage to close in the upper half of their weekly ranges. The S&P 500 lost 2.5% for the week for its first weekly lost in the last 5. The Nazz lost 1.9% hitting 200 day resistance which it reclaimed Thursday. Some positives are developing including the relative outperformance of leading stocks. SBUX broke out Friday from 3 weeks tight pattern buy point of 43.53. Many are continuing higher. TPX revisited is 64.70 double bottom buy point and then rallied 6%. Some are consolidating and building handles on their respective bases as you will view in the next paragraph. Earnings continue to shine for most stocks with this weeks stars QCOM CLR both up 7%, HANS 6%. Good reactions indicate market health. Worrying charts include the recent strong pharmaceutical stocks. JAZZ WPI both have lost their 50 day MAs, although JAZZ did find 200 day support Friday. Keep an eye on ALXN to see if it can hold its 50 day MA. KO, like JAZZ, has a concerning bearish head and shoulders pattern. AAPL can be given the benefit of the doubt as it holds above its 50 day MA, but distribution is building and it rallies on soft volume. CHK had an outside day after earnings Friday. Earnings reports Monday include PCLN RAX.
