Most Recent Note for CBRL - 6/4/2012 12:10:04 PM No overhead supply remains to act as resistance while it is now perched near its 52-week high hit on 5/22/12, a day that marked a "negative reversal". Reported earnings +48% on +4% sales revenues for the quarter ended April 30, 2012 versus the year ago period. Prior quarterly comparisons were sub par with respect to the C criteria. Made steady progress and found support near its 50 DMA line in recent months. It survived but failed to impress since noted in the 11/22/10 mid-day report - "Rallying above a multi-month downward trendline after finding support at its 200 DMA line in August. Earnings and sales revenues growth has been sluggish in recent quarterly comparisons and it has a slow but steady annual earnings (A criteria) history."

Most Recent Note for CMCSK - 6/4/2012 12:11:52 PM Sputtering below its 50 DMA line which recently acted as resistance, and its prior low ($27.80 on 5/21/12) defines important near-term support. Comcast Corp Cl A (CMCSA) is currently included on the Featured Stocks list, however it has sputtered since featured in yellow in the 5/02/12 mid-day report. There is no great difference in the two classes of its shares, particularly from the standpoint of the fact-based investment system.

Most Recent Note for MYE - 6/4/2012 12:25:11 PM Consolidating above its 50 DMA line building an orderly base pattern. Recent quarterly comparisons show great earnings increases, but a lack of sales revenues growth and its sub par annual earnings (A criteria) history leave fundamental concerns.

PRA - NYSE - INSURANCE - Property & Casualty Insurance Proassurance Corp	$87.57	+0.37 0.42%	$88.36	$90.75	-3.50%	84,568 62.88%	134,500
Most Recent Note for PRA - 6/4/2012 12:34:21 PM Consolidating in an orderly fashion since last noted in the 2/23/12 mid-day report when spiking to another new 52-week high. An earlier volume-driven gain on 2/01/12 helped it break out from the orderly base-on-base type pattern. Annual earnings (A criteria) history has been steady but estimates are calling for -34% earnings for FY '12. Quarterly comparisons show 2 of the past 3 earnings increases below the +25% minimum guideline through Mar '12 and sub par sales revenues growth is a concern.

Most Recent Note for TCBI - 6/4/2012 12:37:22 PM Consolidating -5.1% off its 52-week high today and above its 50 DMA line.

TFM - NASDAQ - RETAIL - Grocery Stores The Fresh Market Inc	$55.76	-0.28 -0.50%	$56.78	$59.10	-5.65%	259,388 73.40%	353,400
Most Recent Note for TFM - 6/4/2012 12:38:54 PM Perched near its 52-week today after volume-driven gains last week including a considerable gap up on 5/30/12 from below its 50 DMA line. A downturn in FY '11 earnings is a flaw concerning the A criteria. The M criteria argues against new buying efforts in all stocks until a new confirmed rally with a solid follow through day from at least one of the major averages. The 5/30/12 mid-day report noted - "Reported earnings +33% on +23% sales revenues for the quarter ended April 30, 2012 versus the year ago period. Now 3 of the company's past 4 quarterly comparisons showed earnings above the +25% minimum satisfying the C criteria. It had slumped below its 50 DMA line while consolidating from highs hit since last noted in the 4/13/12 mid-day report - 'Quarterly and annual earnings increases (C & A criteria) are not a match with the fact-based system's guidelines.'"

Most Recent Note for UNFI - 6/4/2012 12:41:44 PM Consolidating less than -5% off its 52-week high, bouncing today near its 50 DMA line which may act as a support level along with earlier highs in the $48-49 area. Quarterly earnings increases have been below the +25% minimum guideline.
