4 Amgen Inc. (AMGN) / / Sector HealthCare Last Sale Price $ Rationale: We maintain a cautiously optimistic technical view on AMGN as the stock still retains its primary uptrend. However, a broadening wedge warns of a maturing rally. The selling in Sep '15 may have found key support near or just above its Oct '14 low (127.67), 38.2% retracement (130.20) from its rally and the bottom of 2013 uptrend channel. A successful test here can trigger a technical rally to the low-1s. In the near-term, key initial resistance is at the 1/4/16 gap down at / Key support is or Oct '14/Sep '15 lows. Amazon.com Inc. (AMZN) / Sector C. Discretionary Last Sale Price $ Rationale: The longer-term bullish trend starting from 2001 lows, breakout of multi-year accumulation pattern above low-s in 2010 and superior relative performance of the stock versus S&P 0 Index supports our technical Bullish rating. Despite gains of nearly 143% over the past year the 21.43% correction from its Dec '15 all-time high appears to a normal correction as this stock retains a bullish underlying trend. Although the Jan '16 gap at may offer key initial resistance on rallies the ability to maintain the mid-0s can lead to the resumption of the primary uptrend. UBS CIO WM Research 26 January

5 Apache Corp (APA) / /56.31 Sector Energy Last Sale Price $37.43 Rationale: After declining 65.77% from Jul '14 high (104.57) a positive outside week on 10/2/15 along with Jul/Aug '15 downtrend breakout hinted of a potential bottom. After successfully testing key support near or the bottom of its 2006 downtrend channel (not shown) a near-term oversold rally developed that quickly faded near key resistance in the low-to-mid s (23.6% retracement (52.02) from its Jul '14 to Oct '15 decline and the Jul '15 breakdown). The 10% decline in the New Year has now violated mid-30s and now suggests a major test of the May '03 breakout (32). American Express (AXP) / / Sector Financials Last Sale Price $55.02 Rationale: Violation of the mid-s earlier in 2015 paints a weak intermediate term trend outlook and hence a defensive Neutral stance. A secondary breakdown below the high-s during Summer 2015 further reaffirms a medium-term head/shoulders top. A breakdown below the bottom of a falling wedge, Jun/Aug/Oct '13 and Aug/Oct '15 lows at warns of a decline to (38.2% retracement from rally and 2012 highs). A gap down on 1/4/16 and violation of key supports along the high-s to low-s (bottom of the 2010/2011 uptrend) now suggests UBS CIO WM Research 26 January

6 AstraZeneca PLC ADS (AZN) / / Sector HealthCare Last Sale Price $31.55 Rationale: AZN has completed a 4-year technical base breakout on a surge above in late This breakout ignited a major rally that achieved several of our technical targets including based on late-2013 breakout above The May '14 rally to the low-s also met longer term resistance associated with the extension of the 1998/2006 trend line (not shown). Since the May 2014 peak a well-defined downtrend channel has developed between the low-30s (key support) and the mid-30s (key resistance). Initial supply is or the Jan '16 gap down. Franklin Resources Inc. (BEN) / / / Sector Financials Last Sale Price $32.53 Rationale: We maintain a cautious Neutral stance on BEN. The Dec '14 negative outside month pattern coupled with a move below low-s or the bottom of the 2012 uptrend channel warned of an intermediate term weakness in the stock. This diversified financials name has now declined 45.9% from its Dec '14 high (58.91) as multiple key supports have been broken. A series of lower-highs and lower-lows suggest a return to the lows at Key initial resistance is at 37- or 10-week/30-week ma. A large trading range is likely between high-20s and high-30s. UBS CIO WM Research 26 January

7 Bristol-Myers Squibb Co (BMY) / / Sector HealthCare Last Sale Price Rationale: A 343% rally from the 2008 bottom (16) has led to an overbought condition. The 7/24/15 negative outside week and a subsequent Jul '15 negative outside month triggered a sharp setback of 26.5% back towards the bottom of its 2011/2013 uptrends along the low-to-mid s. A successful test of support prevented a deeper correction and has ignited another rally. Having said that, a negative outside week on 12/18/15 followed by the Jan '16 gap down led to a sharp pull back of the stock price. Key initial support is and then or the Sep/Oct '15 lows. BP PLC ADS (BP) / / /47-48 Technical rating Bearish Sector Energy Last Sale Price $29.47 Rationale: This Energy name has fallen 48.48% from its May '14 highs (53.48). In the process BP has violated its 2010/11 uptrend channel (44-45) in Sep '14 confirming a top. Although an oversold condition and a positive outside week (10/2/15) has developed, failure to clear above key resistance along or the 61.8% retracement from its Apr-Sep '15 decline and Jul '14 downtrend led to another round of selling. Initial support now lies at or the Jun '10 low and bottom of 2014 channel. Initial supply is at (10-wk/30-wk ma) and then UBS CIO WM Research 26 January

8 Berkshire Hathaway Inc. Class B stock (BRK.B) / Citigroup Inc. (C) Sector Financials Last Sale Price $ Rationale. We recommend downgrading intermediate term technical trend in this Financial name to Neutral as a violation of the 2013 uptrend at and a subsequent weekly death cross signal warn of a maturing trend. BRKB is headed towards another key test of support along or the Aug/Oct '14 lows. Although the longer-term trend is still favourable and relative strength against SPX is positive a convincing violation of would confirm a top and warn of a deeper setback towards and below this to Key initial supply is Sector Financials Last Sale Price $39.55 Rationale: Many of the S&P 0 Financial names have quickly succumbed to strong selling soon after the FED FOMC rate hike. We are concerned about the recent breakdown of the bottom of a well-defined 3-year trading range trend between the mid-s and the high-s. Last July's breakout above may have been a false breakout and/or a bull trap as this financial name has quickly reversed direction falling below its breakout and the bottom of its trading range in the mid-s. We downgrade to a Neutral outlook as many of the financial names including C have deteriorated. 20 UBS CIO WM Research 26 January

9 Caterpillar Inc. (CAT) /-81 Technical rating Bearish Sector Industrials Last Sale Price $57.91 Rationale: The violation of the pivotal 2010/11 uptrend (89-91) as well as key neckline support (79) confirmed a top. The 45.4% decline from Jul '14 high has created a new downtrend channel between the low-s and the low-s. A deeply oversold condition coupled with a daily island reversal on 10/5/15 led to a short-term oversold rally to mid-s before resuming its downtrend. Although oversold rallies are possible to mid-to-high s, a negative outside week pattern on 12/04/15 and two gap downs during Jan '16 warn of the continuation of the 2014 downtrend channel. Celgene Corp. (CELG) /1.7 Sector HealthCare Last Sale Price $106. Rationale: We retain a technical Bullish stance on this Biotechnology name as long as it maintains above its 2012 primary uptrend (low-s). The recent Jul-Aug '15 decline (-34%) warns of a waning bull trend as a head/shoulders top is developing. Mixed technical signals are also developing as the relative strength (vs SPX) has been good over the past year but a weekly death cross sell signal as well as a gap down on 1/4/16 warns of further volatility. Initial support resides along its 2012 uptrend at and then (Aug '15 lows). Key initial resistance is and UBS CIO WM Research 26 January

10 ConocoPhillips (COP) / Technical rating Bearish Sector Energy Last Sale Price $34.20 Rationale: The S&P 0 Energy sector suffered a major sell-off of -49% from its 2014 high (739). COP also declined 62.44% from its Jul '14 high 739. A 2-year head and shoulder top breakdown below at led to a sharp decline towards next support at (8/24/15) or its 76.4% retracement (.43) from its rally. Failure to find support here can lead to retest of its 2009 bottom (26), over time. Nonetheless, a deeply oversold condition and ability to find support near the bottom of its 2-year downtrend channel (32) may trigger a technical rally to the low-to-mid s. Costco Wholesale Corp. (COST) / Sector Cons. Staples Last Sale Price $1.78 Rationale: This Hypermarkets & Super centers name retains its leadership role as it progresses higher over the past 6-plus years as evident by a well-defined rising uptrend channel between the high-130s and the low-1s. A surge above would confirm a breakout rendering an upside target closer to the mid-1s, over time. However, the 12/11/15 negative outside week pattern and the recent broad market setback may temporarily delay the rally resulting in a retest of key support near the summer 2015 lows and the bottom of its uptrend channel at Key resistance is at UBS CIO WM Research 26 January

11 Campbell Soup Co. (CPB) / / Sector Cons. Staples Last Sale Price $54.61 Rationale: An ascending triangle breakout during 2013 (above the high-30s) and a subsequent breakout above two and half year accumulation pattern above high-s in mid-2015 substantiate our Bullish technical outlook on this Food Beverage and Tobacco name. However, a moderately overbought condition has led to a near-term correction back to its prior breakout. Nonetheless, we remain optimistic on the stock based on its 11/20/15 positive outside week, gap up on 11/24/15 and the Nov '15 positive outside month pattern. Initial support lies at -51/47-48 (Nov '15/Jan '16 lows). CSX Corp. (CSX) / / / /33-34 Sector Industrials Last Sale Price $21.97 Rationale: A sharp rally from 2013 to early 2014 faltered near its all-time high of on Nov '2014. As the broad market (SPX) set new highs in May '15 a lower-low pattern soon developed on CSX at This negative divergence, a weekly death cross sell signal in May '15 and violation of the bottom of its 2013 uptrend channel (33) confirm an intermediate-term top. The recent market weakness led to a violation of the extension of the 2011 ascending triangle breakout at (Aug '15 low). Next support is and then Key initial resistance is mid-to-high 20s. UBS CIO WM Research 26 January

12 CenturyLink Inc. (CTL) /17 25/ Sector Comm. Services Last Sale Price $23.76 Rationale: CTL has violated the bottom of its 5-year downtrend channel along the mid-20s. A weekly death cross sell signal CTL earlier in 2015 has transitioned this stock into an even steeper decline as evident by the 52% decline from its 2014 highs. Although an extremely oversold condition is developing the recent breakdown below key support in the mid-20s warn of further downside to to the 2008 low before a firmer bottom is confirmed. Key initial resistance is at or the 10-wk and the 30-wk moving averages. A breakout here would help to stabilize the recent selling. Chevron Corp (CVX) Sector Energy / Last Sale Price $.89 Rationale: Violation of the bottom of its 2011 uptrend channel at followed by a negative outside week (5/1/15) and violation of the Dec '14/Jan-Mar '15 lows at 98- have triggered a 48.5% decline (from its Jul '14 highs) to Aug '15 low of An extremely oversold condition coupled with a successful test of major support at.55 (61.8% retracement from rally) triggered a technical rally to by Nov '15 or near the 38.2% retracement from Jul '14-Aug '15 decline and the Jul '15 downtrend. A trading range is possible between -75 and 95-. UBS CIO WM Research 26 January

13 Dominion Resources Inc. (D) Sector Utilities Last Sale Price $69.56 Rationale: Although the longer-term trend still remains up, failure to surpass key resistance at -81 or the top of the 2009/2011 uptrend channels warns of an intermediate-term top. In addition, a head/shoulders top has developed over the past 2 years. Key neckline support is in the mid-s. Breeching support solidifies a top and renders downsides to the low-s and then to the mid-s. The recent market weakness may have triggered a flight to safety as classic defensives names like D outperformed SPX. I2/18/16 and 1/22/16 positive outside week patterns bodes well for a rally. E.I. DuPont de Nemours & Co. (DD) / / Sector Materials Last Sale Price $52.99 Rationale: The impending merger between the two Chemical industry giants DuPont and Dow Chemical has impacted the share price performance of both of the stocks in the recent weeks. Earlier, the sharp 38.5% decline to 47.11(Oct '15) have subsided near its crucial 2010 uptrend (47-49). The ability to find support here coupled with a deeply oversold condition and 10/02/15 positive outside week pattern has triggered a sharp rally. However, the Dec '15 negative outside month and the Jan '16 gap down hints of the onset of a trading range between the low-s and the mid-s. 35 UBS CIO WM Research 26 January

14 Deere and Co (DE) / Sector Industrials Last Sale Price $71.88 Rationale: We keep a technical Neutral stance on Deere as the two technical breakdowns below 2011/12 uptrend at 87/82 warn of a major top. The selling escalated into Oct '15 as the stock fell to before generating a gap up short-term reversal on 10/5/15. A deeply oversold condition led to a short-term technical rally towards the 38.2% retracement (81.93) from the Jul to Oct '15 sell-off and the prior trend line breakdowns. Failure to breakout here coupled with 12/11/15 negative outside week suggests a range bound trading environment between low-s and low-s. Diageo PLC ADS (DEO) / Sector Cons. Staples Last Sale Price $104 Rationale: Although the long-term trend remains favorable, DEO has underperformed SPX over the past three years as evident by a well-defined downtrend channel. The Aug-Oct '15 correction violated the bottom of its 2013 downtrend channel but managed to maintain medium term support along the 38.2% retracement (98.5) from its rally. Despite the relief rally from Aug '15 low (.59), the broader market weakness coupled with the inability of the stock breakout suggests the continuation of its 2013 downtrend channel between +/- 2 and +/- 2. UBS CIO WM Research 26 January

15 The Walt Disney Co (DIS) Sector Cons. Disc. Last Sale Price $95.29 Rationale: The broad market correction during Jul-Aug '15 led to a sharp pullback towards the bottom of its 2011 uptrend near triggering a technical rally into year-end rally. However, failure to clear the top of its 5-year channel at -122 quickly led to another correction that has now broken the bottom of its uptrend channel. However, it has managed to maintain above its Aug '15 low (90) preventing a deeper setback. An oversold condition coupled with a gap up on 1/22/16 hint of a rally to or the 1/4/16 gap down and above this to or the 10/30-wk ma. Dow Chemical Co. (DOW) Source: FactSet, UBS CIO WMR as of 25 January Sector Materials Last Sale Price $42.18 Rationale: The impending merger between the two Chemical industry giants Dow Chemical and DuPont has impacted the share prices of both the stocks. Earlier, the 34.7% correction in Jul-Aug '15 have violated its 2009/2011 uptrend (43.5) and led to a sharp decline to (8/24/15) before stabilizing. A positive outside week (10/2/15) and a surge above the low-s triggered a recovery back to its 2014/2015 highs. However, failure to breakout and the Dec '15 negative outside month and the Jan '16 gap down warn of another test of support at -41 and below this to UBS CIO WM Research 26 January

16 Duke Energy Corp. (DUK) / /89.87 Technical rating Bearish Sector Utilities Last Sale Price $71. Rationale: The failure of DUK to breakout above the top of its uptrend channel (high-s) and a subsequent weekly death cross technical sell signal in late-mar '15 warn of a peak for this Utility name. Recent violation of the mid- coinciding with the Mar/May '15 lows, 2009 uptrend, and the Oct '14 breakout reaffirm a top. In addition, a negative outside month on Aug '15 and a 2-year head/shoulders top warn of further downside risks to the mid-s. The ability to find support at may ignite another rally to the left/right shoulders near the mid-s ( ). Ford Motor Co (F) / Sector C. Discretionary Last Sale Price $11.98 Rationale: A potentially large technical base has developed over the past 14-years (not shown). However, repeated failures to clear above long-term resistance at still suggest F is not ready to breakout and hence our Neutral outlook. The decline to during Aug '15 broad market correction and the ensuing failed rally to key resistance at have now created a well-defined downtrend channel. The continued relative underperformance of F to SPX coupled with the Jan '16 break down now suggest another key of the bottom of the channel and Aug '15 low (10.44). UBS CIO WM Research 26 January

17 Facebook Inc. (FB) Jul '12 Oct '12 Jan '13 Apr '13 Jul '13 Oct '13 Jan '14 Apr '14 Jul '14 Oct '14 Jan '15 Apr '15 Jul '15 Oct '15 Jan ' Sector Technology Last Sale Price $97.01 Rationale: The primary trend (starting from May '12) remains bullish and the prior breakout above low-30s during Jul '13 and a subsequent breakout above 45 during Sep '14 led to an even steeper uptrend channel between low-90s and high-s. The 27.5% correction from its Jul '15 high (99.3) to its Aug '15 low (72) has set the stage for the next rally. A breakout above the Jul '15 record high (99.3) and above the top of its 2013 uptrend channel ( ) led to a new all-time high of (Nov '15). However, a Jan '16 gap down hints of a consolidation between and Gilead Sciences Inc. (GILD) / /123.4 Sector HealthCare Last Sale Price $90.61 Rationale: GILD rallied 94.28% from its Apr '14 low (63.5) recording a record high of on Jun '15. An overbought condition has led a consolidation between the mid-s or the Dec '14/Aug '15/Jan '16 lows and or the Oct '14/Jun '15 highs. Similar to many Biotechnology names a large broadening top as well as a head/shoulders top have developed. Failure to maintain key support at confirms neckline breakdown and would force a technical downgrade. Key initial resistance is -105 or the Jan '16 gap down, 2015 downtrend and 10-wk/30-wk ma. UBS CIO WM Research 26 January

18 General Mills Inc. (GIS) / Sector Cons. Staples Last Sale Price $54. Rationale: The primary trend remains up and higher prices are still possible, over time. However, recent failure to clear above the top of its 2-year uptrend channel (-61) in Aug '15 coupled with an overbought condition suggests a consolidation is now likely. Near-term support is or the 2012 uptrend and the Jun/Jul '15/Jan '16 lows. The bottom of the 2013 channel at offers secondary support. The recent correction has shifted investment interests to the classic defensive such as GIS as its relative strength is approaching a major breakout along its 2009 downtrend. GlaxoSmithKline PLC ADS (GSK) / Technical rating Bearish Sector HealthCare Last Sale Price $39.68 Rationale: We maintain a technical Bearish outlook on this HealthCare name based primarily on the breakdown below 53 in Jul '14 and a subsequent breakdown below 47 in Sep '14. A negative outside month on Aug '15 and completion of a 1-year head/shoulders top breakdown (below neckline at 41.25) led to a sharp decline to (Sep/Oct '15 low). Repeated attempts to surpass key resistance along the top of its falling wedge formation along the low-s suggests GSK may be vulnerable for a retest of the bottom of its wedge pattern and its Oct '15 lows near UBS CIO WM Research 26 January

19 Halliburton (HAL) / /-51 Technical rating Bearish Sector Energy Last Sale Price $29.2 Rationale: The 62.81% decline from Jul '14 high has weakened both the absolute and relative (vs SPX) charts. However, the Oct '15 positive outside month signalled a recovery from deeply oversold levels. Nonetheless, a falling wedge remains intact between 27 and. Recent failure to convincing surge above its 30-wk ma, above its Nov '14 downtrend, and a Dec '15 negative outside month has led to a decline to the bottom of its falling wedge near 27. The ability to find support can lead to a technical oversold rally to (10/30-wk ma) and above this to -41 (top of wedge). Home Depot (HD) / /156 Sector C. Discretionary Last Sale Price $ Rationale: We retain a technical Bullish outlook on this Home Improvement retailer but recognize the rally over the past 2-years has achieved our technical target of 123 (based on the 2013 breakout above ). Although higher prices are still possible back to its prior 2015 highs at and above this to HD may be vulnerable for a correction to initial support at or Oct '15/Jan '16 lows and below this to or the 2011 uptrend and % retracement from rally. Key initial resistance is at or the 10-wk ma and prior Nov '15 highs. UBS CIO WM Research 26 January

20 Honeywell International Inc. (HON) / Sector Industrials Last Sale Price $96.48 Rationale: A 13-year breakout at 63/69 during the late-2012/early-2013 (not shown) renders targets to and then to HON has achieved the first of the two targets ( ) during last summer's rally to and is now consolidating its gains between the high-s and the low-s. The Aug '15 negative outside month warns of a potential head/shoulders top pattern. Key neckline support is at or the Oct '14 uptrend. Violation here confirms a major technical breakdown and signals a deeper correction. Initial supply is at or near its 2015 highs. International Business Machines Corp (IBM) / Sector Technology Last Sale Price $ Rationale: The strong selling has again resumed as IBM has now fallen 45% from its 2013 highs (215.90) and has broken below the bottom of a 3-year downtrend channel (138-1) and its 61.8% retracement from 2008 to 2013 rally and the extension of its 2010 pivotal breakout at This suggests a decline to next support at 116 (May '10 lows) and below this to the 76.4% retracement (104). The Nov '08 and Jul '09 lows at offer additional support. An oversold condition can trigger a technical rally to key initial resistance at / (10/30-wk ma). UBS CIO WM Research 26 January

21 Illinois Tool Works Inc. (ITW) / /59-/ Sector Industrials Last Sale Price $81.05 Rationale: A breakout of multi-year accumulation pattern above 59- in late-2012 (not shown) renders upside target to ITW has surpassed this target as it traded to a high of.14 (Mar '15). A weekly death cross sell signal during Apr '15 led to a consolidation through Aug '15. The ability to find key support near its 2014/2015 lows at prevented a deeper correction. However, this may have created a large head/shoulders top pattern. Key neckline support resides near the mid-to-high s and key resistance is 89.5/95 or the left/right shoulders (Jun '14/Dec '15 highs). Johnson and Johnson (JNJ) / / /116- Sector Healthcare Last Sale Price $96. Rationale: A large multi-year technical base breakout above the low-to-mid s achieved our technical target of the low-110s during Nov 14 (109.49). Soon after, an overbought condition coupled with a weekly death cross sell signal and a descending triangle breakdown warned of a correction. After declining 24% to (Aug '15) a strong technical rally attempted to retest its prior all-time high. However, the Jan '16 gap down now warns of another consolidation to initial support at Violation here renders downside to the low-90s/mid-s. Key supply is /105. UBS CIO WM Research 26 January

22 Kimberly-Clark Corp. (KMB) / / / Sector Cons. Staples Last Sale Price $ Rationale: We retain a technical Bullish view on KMB as the primary uptrend channel ( and ) from 2008 remains intact. However, failure to clear above the top of its channel coupled with a recent 1/8/16 negative outside week now hint of consolidation over the near-to-medium term. Key initial support is at or the Oct '15 breakout as well as the 30-week ma. Secondary support resides along 108 +/- 2 and then -102 or the bottom its uptrend channel. A breakout its prior high at 130 renders upside to the mid-130s and then the mid-1s. Coca Cola Co (KO) / Sector Cons Staples Last Sale Price $42.16 Rationale: We retain a Neutral outlook as this important consumer staples name remains confined to a wellestablished 3-plus year trading range between mid-to-high 30s on the downside and mid-s on the upside. A recent weekly golden cross buy signal is positive. However, a convincing move above or Nov '14/Oct-Dec '15 highs and top of the channel confirm a breakout and warrant an upgrade. Key support is at 39- or the Aug/Dec '14, Mar/Jun/Jul '15 and Jan '16 lows and the 30-week ma. The mid-30s or the bottom of channel remains major support. UBS CIO WM Research 26 January

23 L Brands Inc. (LB) / / Sector C. Discretionary Last Sale Price $95.27 Rationale: The bullish uptrend channel from the 2008/09 lows, and a multi-year breakout in 2010/11 above the low- 30s still merit a medium to long-term technical Bullish outlook. However, a negative outside month on Apr '15 and a subsequent negative outside week on 10/23/15 warn of a consolidation over the near-term. Despite the 21.6% setback from its Apr '15 highs the ensuing rally from its Aug '15 low of not only recouped all of its prior losses but established new record highs of in Nov '15.

The 10/16/15 positive outside week pattern helped to stabilize the selling but a negative outside week pattern (12/4/15) and failure at mid-s suggest a test of key support at or the Aug '15 low, 2009 uptrend and 38.2% retracement of rally.

A falling wedge pattern has developed over the past 2 years. This pattern hints of a potential medium term bottom. The ability to find support near the bottom of wedge in the high-s can trigger a technical oversold rally to key initial resistance at 68- or the 10-wk/30-wk ma and above this to or the top of wedge and 38.2% retracement from decline.

However, the 2009 to present rally stalled near its 61.8% retracement (mid-30s) from the decline. Although the Jul '15 positive outside month pattern is constructive, a 21.9% decline from its Jul '15 high has created a potential head/shoulders top pattern. Key neckline support is visible at A decisive breakdown confirms a top and warns of a decline to the low-to-mid 20s. Key resistance is at 33 or the Mar '14 high (left shoulder) and the 30-wk ma.

Staples Last Sale Price $75.85 Rationale: A failure to sustain a breakout above the top of its 15-plus year uptrend channel (not shown) in the low- 90s and deteriorating relative strength (SPX) signal a correction.

30 Philip Morris International (PM) / Sector Cons Staples Last Sale Price $88.68 Rationale: This Consumer Staples name retains its longer term bullish uptrend dating back to 2008/09. Although the 04/19/15 gap up and the Apr '15 positive outside month are encouraging, the increased volatility during Aug/Sep '15 sends a mixed technical signal. The ability to maintain key support in the mid-s prevented a deeper correction. More recently, 12/18/15 positive outside week pattern and triangle breakout above the mid-s can lead to a retest of or its (2013) all-time highs. Trading above prior 2013 highs signal the resumption of its primary long-term uptrend.

An extreme oversold condition coupled with gap up (1/22/16) suggests a technical rally to (10-wk ma and the 23.6% retracement from 2014 decline) and above this to.5-54 (30-wk ma and the 38.2% retracement).

Discretionary Last Sale Price $57.71 Rationale: We retain a Bullish technical outlook on SBUX as long as it maintains above the top of its 2009/2012 uptrend channel (mid-s) and its 10-mo ma (57). Although SBUX has corrected % from its Oct '15 highs (64) the ability to maintain above key support in the mid-s coupled with a positive outside day (1/22/16) can trigger another technical rally to key initial resistance at or the 1/4/16 gap down, Oct '15 downtrend, Jul/Aug '15 and Jan '16 highs.

Multiple moving averages cross overs confirms the continuation of the downtrend. The ability to find support near low- 30s during Aug-Sep '15 downturn has produced another rally to key resistance at Above this supply zone confirms a breakout.

Discretionary Last Sale Price $68.92 Rationale: A major technical breakout in late-2014 above its prior 2007/2013 all-time highs at ignited a sharp rally to new record highs at (Jun '15). However, failures to trade to fresh new highs coupled with a weekly death cross sell (Sep '15) as well as a negative outside month (Oct '15) signal a correction. The 22.6% correction from Jun '15 highs may deepen as a negative outside week (1/8/16) and a negative outside month (Jan '16) warn of a potential top. We recommend moving to a Neutral outlook as a breakdown below can lead to a decline to Total S.A. ADS (TOT) / / / Technical rating Bearish Sector Energy Last Sale Price $41.34 Rationale: We maintain a defensive technical stance on this Energy name but believe a deeply oversold condition can lead to a sharp but unsustainable oversold rally. Since the global financial crisis a large head/shoulders top pattern still warns of longer-term technical weakness. The ability to find support near +/- 1 or the 2009/2011/2015 lows may lead to a technical bounce towards or the 10-wk/30-wk ma and above this to low-to-mid s (right shoulders). A break below 39- could extend sell-off to and possibly to to retest its lows. UBS CIO WM Research 26 January

This breakdown renders a downside target to or the 38.2% retracement from rally and the 2006 highs. Below this support triggers a deeper setback to and then to or the % retracement and 2012 breakout.

A negative outside month (Dec '15), rolling over of weekly ma, 2011 uptrend breakdown and two subsequent gap downs during Jan '16 on 1/4/16 at and on 1/7/16 at confirms a top and we recommend moving to a Neutral technical outlook. Visa Inc Cl A (V) / Sector Technology Last Sale Price $71.74 Rationale: The longer-term primary trend starting from lows continues to trend higher and the relative strength trend in relationship to SPX remains positive. However, this trend may be maturing as evident by the failure to clear above key resistance near the low-s. In addition, 12/11/15 negative outside week and the Jan '16 gap down hints of the start of a consolidation to initial support at (Sep '15/Jan '16 lows and 2014/2015 uptrend).

The Oct '15 positive outside month and the 11/20/15, 12/4/15, 12/18/15 and 1/22/16 positive outside weeks now offer technical signs of higher prices. A breakout above can ignite a rally.
