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

Perched at its 52-week high today following a considerable "breakaway gap" on the prior session. Reported earnings +26% on +4% sales revenues for the Dec '13 quarter, continuing the previously noted deceleration in sales revenues and earnings growth. The 8/28/13 mid-day report cautioned - "There may be additional resistance up through the $115 level due to old overhead supply. Earnings increases have been above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria) in the 3 latest quarterly comparisons through Mar '13. Decelerating sales revenues increases are cause for concern as it reported sales +127%, +91%, +102%, +37%, +21%, +33%, +16% and +14% in the Jun, Sep, Dec '11, Mar, Jun, Sep, Dec '12, and Mar '13 quarters, respectively."

Most Recent Note for TRIP - 2/7/2014 12:47:27 PM
Gapped up today, rebounding from below its 50 DMA line. Last noted with caution in the 10/31/13 mid-day report - "Reported earnings -2% on +20% sales revenues for the Sep '13 quarter, below the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria) raising greater fundamental concerns. Rebounded after violating its 50 DMA line with volume-driven losses in early-October. Subsequent losses undercutting recent lows in the $68 area would raise greater concerns and trigger a more worrisome technical sell signal. Prior mid-day reports repeatedly cautioned members - "Fundamentals remain a concern."

Most Recent Note for WWWW - 2/7/2014 12:54:22 PM
Consolidating above support at its 50 DMA line while enduring recent distributional action. Reported earnings +31% on +18% sales revenues for the Dec '13 quarter. The past 8 quarterly comparisons showed earning increases above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). Sales revenues rose +132%, +134%, +141%, +51%, +26%, +22%, +18%, in prior quarters through from Mar '12 to Sep '13, sequentially decelerating as previously noted. Its annual earnings (A criteria) growth history included a downturn in FY '09, a minor flaw with regard to the fundamental guidelines of the fact-based investment system.
