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.

G - Very extended from any sound base after hitting a new all-time high with a big volume-driven gain on 2/28/24. Bullish action came after it reported Dec '23 quarterly earnings +60% on +29% sales revenues versus the year-ago period. Volume and volatility often increase near earnings news. Prior highs in the $260-262 area define initial support to watch along with its 50-day moving average (DMA) line ($261).

Most Recent Note for CLS - 3/1/2024 12:22:38 PM
Extended from any sound base and hitting yet another new 52-week high with today's gap up gain. Patient investors may watch for a new base or secondary buy point to possibly develop and be noted in the weeks ahead. Rallied steadily after finding prompt support near its 50 DMA line in January. Reported earnings +36% on +5% sales revenues for the Dec '23 quarter versus the year ago period, and 6 of the last 7 quarterly comparisons were at or above the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria). Annual earnings (A criteria) history has been strong since bottoming in FY '19.

Most Recent Note for CRM - 3/1/2024 12:23:48 PM
Extended from any sound base and hitting new all-time highs with today's 3rd consecutive volume-driven gain. Reported Jan '24 quarterly earnings +36% on +11% sales revenues versus the year ago period, its 5th strong quarterly comparison. Went through a deep consolidation from its all-time high since noted with caution in the 12/01/21 mid-day report. Large supply of 968 million shares outstanding (S criteria) makes it an unlikely sprinter, and it is already owned by more than 4,703 top-rated funds (I criteria). There was a downturn in its FY '22 annual earnings (A criteria) history.

Gapped down today testing its 50 DMA line ($52.70) after hitting a new 52-week high on the prior session with a volume-driven gain. Faces no resistance due to overhead supply. Reported Dec '23 quarterly earnings +34% on +4% sales revenues versus the year-ago period. Prior 4 quarterly comparisons were below the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). Strong annual earnings history (A criteria). The Building - Residential/Commercial industry group is currently ranked 55th on the 197 Industry Groups list, a reassuring sign concerning the L criteria. Completed a Secondary Offering on 1/27/21.

Trading near its 50 DMA line ($5.91) after recently slumping from multi-year highs. Reported strong Sep and Dec '23 quarterly earnings results versus the year-ago periods. Annual earnings history (A criteria) has been erratic and included a downturn in FY '22, not a match with the fact-based investment system's fundamental guidelines.

Perched at its all-time high today following noted volume-driven gains.
