| Negative Volume Index (NVI) is a traditional Sentiment Indicator for Lennar Corporation. The modern version of the indicator has received several enhancements added by Norman Fosback. The indicator is the proportion of the daily NVI as compared to the average daily NVI over the past year. The plot is orange below the unity line (neutral implication) and green above (bullish). |

How to read the Calibrated NVI for Lennar Corporation: In its modern form, the NVI is an elegant indicator, but requires some care in interpretation. The orange plot (NVI less than unity) is not considered bearish because a lowering of the NVI is a natural tendancy under many market conditions. When the plot is in the green area, it indicates that prices are rising on low volume sessions, which is contrary to the normal condition. This can be a tip off to "accumulation behaviour" on the part of someone or some group in the market. The indicator seems most significant when prices are falling and the NVI is rising, which indicates a market that is "buying on the dips". |

| The NVI resembles a fundamental indicator more than a technical indicator in at least one respect, as it seems to be indicative over a span of months or quarters, rather then the extremely short predictive span typical of many technical signals.

For the trading week ending 2/12/2010, the weekly average closing altitude was 84.27 percent. 50 percent closing altitude is marked as the midline. If the closing prices happened to be exactly halfway between the high and low, they would be plotted on this midline. Values above the midline indicate that day traders have positive feelings toward LEN while traces below the midline are a sign that speculators are afraid to hold on to the issue overnight. The short-term trend is positive, with a slope of 57.29. Lennar Corporation stock prices are shown in red. |
