Winning Streak Continues for Discount Retailer
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam

Ollie's Bargain Outlet (OLLI +$0.55 or +1.49% to $37.50) rallied further above its "max buy" level for a new all-time high with today's 6th consecutive gain. Bullish action has continued since reporting earnings +22% on +16% sales revenues for the Jan '17 quarter, below the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria).

The Retail - Discount & Variety industry group has seen its Group Relative Strength Rating improve from 13 to 44 since OLLI was last shown in this FSU section on 3/27/16 with an annotated graph under the headline, "No Resistance Remains and Earnings News is Due".It was highlighted in yellow with new pivot point cited based on its 2/21/17 high plus 10 cents in the 3/27/17 mid-day report (read here).

It reported earnings +55% on +16% sales revenues for the Oct '16 quarter, continuing its strong earnings track record with results above the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria) for a 7th consecutive quarter. Its annual earnings (A criteria) history has been good.

OLLI was first highlighted in yellow with a pivot point based on its 4/28/16 high plus 10 cents in 7/19/16 mid-day report (read here). OLLI completed its $16 IPO on 7/16/15.
