More details about this report...
At around
mid-way through each trading day we run
a screen against our database of
high-ranked stocks, searching for
possible buy candidates that are trading
at or near their 52-week high on above
average volume. The results of that
screen are split into the two sections
you see below. The first, titled
"TODAY's FEATURED STOCKS" shows stocks
that our experts have recently
identified as among the strongest candidates to
consider. Stocks highlighted in yellow
are the most timely and noteworthy, so
particular attention and prompt action
may be appropriate. The second section,
titled "TODAY's BREAKOUT SCREEN" shows
the remainder of stocks meeting today's
screen parameters. Our experts have
reviewed and included notes on these
stocks as well, but found that they may
not match up as favorably.

Y - Today's strongest

this report as yellow and

Most Recent Note for GWW - 10/18/2011 12:30:00 PM
Challenging its 52-week high with a considerable gain today after reporting earnings +26% on +11% sales revenues for the quarter ended Sept 30, 2011 versus the year ago period. It found prompt support near its 50 DMA and 200 DMA lines during its pullback since last noted in the 9/13/11 mid-day report - "No overhead supply remains to act as resistance. Sales revenues have been +12-19% and earnings increases above the +25% guideline for the past 4 comparisons through Mar '11 versus the year ago period(s). The prior growth history for this Retail/Wholesale Building Products firm included a downturn in FY '09 which raises concerns with respect to the A criteria of the fact-based investment system's guidelines."

Most Recent Note for SIMO - 10/18/2011 12:40:38 PM
Inching to new 52-week highs after holding its ground stubbornly following recent volume-driven gains with no overhead supply to act as resistance. Reported earnings +233% on +59% sales revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 versus the year ago period. It slumped near its 200 DMA line during a deep consolidation since noted in the 5/27/11 mid-day report - "Recent quarters showed much better sales and earnings increases versus the year earlier. Prior quarterly comparisons and annual earnings (A criteria) growth have not been strong and steady, so it is fundamentally below guidelines of the fact-based investment system. It survived but failed to impress since dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 7/26/07."
