CPRT generated an uneventful inside week but did close red and slightly in the lower half of the week's trading range, suggesting a slightly higher probability of going below last week's low at 47.89 than above last week's high at 49.70. Pivotal support is found at 47.08 and short-term pivotal resistance is found at 50.22. The overall chart remains positive for the bulls but the lack of follow-through to the upside the past 3 weeks, in spite of the indexes going higher, does open a lot of questions as why the stock has stalled in this area. As such, this is a time to watch the action closely.

ENG generated an uneventful inside week but did close green and very slightly in the upper half of the week's trading range, suggesting a slightly higher probability of going above last week's high at 1.84 than going below last week's low at 1.68. Having said that, until the stock closes above the 2.00 level, the bears remain in control. A break below 1.66 would suggest a drop down to 1.56 would occur.

GCI continued higher and closed on the high of the week, suggesting further upside above last week's high at 2.62 will be seen this week. The stock technically generated another buy signal, having closed at 2.59 and a previous high weekly close being at 2.57. If that buy signal is confirmed next Friday, the upside objective would then be at least 3.04. The 200-week MA is currently a 3.25 and that was the mention's objective. Nonetheless and for the longer term (next 12 month), the stock could get up as high as $6. Pivotal daily close support is found between 2.30 (200-day MA) and 2.35 (previous spike low daily close). A close below 2.30 would be a short-term game changer at this time.

INTC made yet another 20-month intraweek and weekly closing high and closed on the high of the week, suggesting further upside above last week's high at 48.16 will be seen this week. There is no resistance above until the 52.51 level is reached (51.83 on a weekly closing basis). The $50 level is considered psychological resistance but this indicative breakout, which is supported by the fundamental picture, does suggest that a psychological resistance will not stop the bulls at this time. Having said that, the breakout level between 44.28 and 45.05 is highly likely to be retested before the stock can get above 52.51, meaning that if the stock gets up to (or close to) the 51.83 level, consideration should be given to taking profits and re-buying around the $45 level a few weeks from now. Ultimately, the stock is likely to get up to at least $55 with potential for even getting up as high as $63, sometime in the next 6-12 months.

LXRX generated another green weekly close (6th in a row) and closed near the high of the week, suggesting further upside above last week's high at 1.37 will be seen this week. Nonetheless and in spite of all the green closes, the upside achievements have been small and limited. Having said that, the probabilities favor the stock getting up to 1.43, this week or next, and then falling back to somewhere between 1.07-1.17. Having said that, if the bulls get above 1.43 the odds will begin to favor the bulls for more upside and if 1.51 is broken, the objective will be 1.90. This is a stock that just 4 months ago was at 1.90 and 8 months ago was at 3.78, meaning that the possibilities do exist that the stock could gain all of that back within the next 9 months. The fundamental picture has not changed dramatically, so as to support the stock staying at these lower levels. As such, the charts at this moment are not so clearly defined so as to stay that any downside of consequence will be seen.

PLNH generated a positive reversal week, having made a new 6-week low but then closing green and slightly in the upper half of the week's trading range, suggesting further upside above last week's high at .72 will be seen this week. If that occurs and the stock closes next Friday above the most recent low weekly close at .7155, a failure signal against the bears will be given, which will give the bulls new ammunition. In looking at the daily chart, any daily close above .72 will generate a new short-term buy signal, as well as a close above the 200-day MA, currently at .70, and that would offer mostly open air up to .83. The stock did have established support at .60 that might have been tested successfully, given that the low this past week was .617. If the bulls can generate the above actions, the .617 low will not only be seen as a new and dependable support level but also a sign that the low at .45 has been fully tested and a bottom formation built. It would also suggest the downside is over. Nothing is yet clear or decided but the chart is "slightly" favoring the bulls right now.

VWDRY generated a new 5-month weekly closing high and closed on the high of the week, suggesting further upside above last week's high at 9.89 will be seen this week. In addition, the stock closed above the 200-day MA, currently at 9.77 (closed at 9.86) and if that is confirmed next Friday with another green close, it will be a bullish note. More importantly for next Friday, it is the monthly close and the 23-month monthly closing high is 9.69, meaning that a close next Friday above that level would be a breakout of note. Short-term pivotal daily close support is at 9.36. If that gets broken, a drop down to at least the 8.50-8.60 level would likely be seen. A daily close above 10.36 would be a breakout as well.

ZLAB generated an unexplainable down week, having lost 18% in value (based on the daily closes). There was no negative news on the company and though the Chinese index went down, the stock has not reacted so negatively in the past when that has occurred. There was a strong increase in volume that could explain the drop based on the fact that a failure signal to the breakout occurred on Tuesday and perhaps that explains the volume increase. Nonetheless, the fundamental picture remains positive, in fact it got better given that 3 of the company's medicines are now supported fully by the government. The stock did generate a sell signal on Thursday, having closed below the 6-week low daily close on that day and then confirming the sell signal on Friday. By the same token, the exact opposite occurred the previous week to the upside, meaning that it is possible that a positive reversal may occur this week. On a positive note, there is short-term indicative and established daily close support at 25.22 and weekly close support at 25.30 and both held on Friday as the stock closed at 25.30. The stock did close on the low of the week and further downside below last week's low at 25.25 is expected to be seen on Tuesday. It is important that the bulls step up on Tuesday and generate a green daily close. Any daily close above 26.40 will defuse the negative situation. The stock did generate a breakaway and runaway gap formation that so far, has not been confirmed with news. If the stock begins to recover, both gaps will be magnets. The breakaway gap is up at 30.11. ,If that gets closed, this week's drop will be totally negated. At this time though, the bears do have the edge and the burden of proof is on the shoulders of the bulls. By the same token, this drop is so far unexplainable.
