Weekly Commentary
NASDAQ Follow Through Day; 80 Breakouts Exceed 5% Gain

Friday's 2% gain by the NASDAQ on well above average volume qualifies as a 'follow through day' following the low set on March 14. Friday was the 4th day after the March 14 bottom, it closed higher than the previous day and did so on higher volume, meeting the O'Neil criteria. This was not enough to change our market trend algorithm, which is still negative for all three major indexes, although another positive day could swing the trend(s) into a positive direction. For the week, the NASDAQ gained 8.2%.
NASDAQ Chart
This was also a very strong week for breakouts with 80 watchlist stocks exceeding a 5% gain.
Chart of the Week
Apple (AAPL) met our criteria for an Average True Range Breakout on Friday. AAPL was the best performing mega cap tech stock on Friday, and played a major role in moving the NASDAQ higher. If the tech stock rally continues, AAPL will likely continue to be the mega cap leader.
