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.

Most Recent Note for BCS - 1/3/2025 12:05:27 PM
Finding prompt support today near its 50 DMA line ($13.18) as it has on recent pullbacks. It is extended from any sound base. Reported Sep '24 quarterly earnings +42% on +15% sales revenues versus the year ago period. Prior 4 quarterly earnings comparisons were down from the year-ago periods. Erratic annual earnings history (A criteria) remains a concern.

Most Recent Note for CCB - 1/3/2025 12:06:32 PM
Extended from any sound base and perched near its all-time high today following 2 consecutive small volume-driven losses. Reported strong Sep '24 quarterly results versus the year ago period but fundamental concerns remain. Went through a long consolidation since completing a new Public Offering on 12/15/21. This thinly-traded Bank completed its $14.50 IPO on 7/18/18.

Most Recent Note for CNX - 1/3/2025 12:09:53 PM
There was a "negative reversal" after early gains today, slumping back below its 50 DMA line ($37.53) which has recently acted as resistance. Quarterly and annual earnings history has been erratic and sales revenues have been badly waning in the 3 latest quarterly comparisons through Jun '24.

Most Recent Note for COKE - 1/3/2025 12:14:24 PM

Holding its ground stubbornly near its high while consolidating following a recent spurt of impressive volume-driven gains. Fundamental concerns remain. This Monaco-based LP has shown strong quarterly earnings increases but with subpar sales revenues growth. Its annual earnings (A criteria) history also is not a match with the fact-based investment system's fundamental guidelines.

Challenged its 52-week high with recent gains marked by heavy volume. Reported Sep '24 quarterly earnings +20% on +18% sales revenues versus the year ago period. Prior quarterly and annual earnings history has not been a good match with the fact-based investment system's fundamental guidelines.

Hitting another new 52-week high with today's 3rd consecutive volume-driven gain. This Israel-based Security/Safety firm reported earnings +10% on +3% sales revenues for the Sep '24 quarter versus the year ago period. Three of the 3 latest quarterly comparisons were below the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria). Annual earnings (A criteria) growth has improved after a downturn in FY '19 and '20.
