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
candidates
highlighted
by our staff
of experts.

G - Previously featured in
this report as yellow and
now may no longer be buyable
under the guidelines.

Most Recent Note for JD - 3/11/2020 12:45:00 PM
Finding prompt support near its 50 DMA line ($40) and recently powered to new 52-week highs with volume-driven gains. Prior mid-day reports noted - "Faces resistance due to overhead supply up to the $50 level. Its 200 DMA line acted as support in prior months when consolidating. This Chinese retailer reported earnings +14% on +22% sales revenues for the Dec '19 quarter, breaking a streak of much stronger increases in the 4 prior quarterly comparisons versus the year ago periods. Up and down annual earnings (A criteria) history is not a match with the fact-based investment system's fundamental guidelines."
