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 3rd big volume-driven loss in the span of 4 sessions has it slumping below its pivot point and back into the prior base, raising concerns. Following a big volume-driven breakout gain on 3/18/19 it was repeatedly noted - "Faces some resistance due to overhead supply up to the $50 level. Reported earnings +66% on +20% sales revenues for the Dec '18 quarter, its 4th consecutive comparison above the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria)."

G - Pulling back today, and it is extended from the prior base after wedging higher with recent gains lacking great volume-conviction. Its 50 DMA line ($190) and prior highs in the $184 area define near-term support to watch.

Violating its 50 DMA line and prior highs in the $56-57 area with today's damaging volume-driven loss. Made little progress into new high territory after it reported Dec '18 earnings +60% on +8% sales revenues. Prior mid-day reports cautioned members - "Prior quarterly sales revenues and earnings history is not a match with the fact-based investment system's guidelines."

Challenging its all-time high with today's volume-driven gain. Earnings increases were above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria) in the 4 latest quarterly comparisons through Dec '18.

Most Recent Note for CODA - 3/22/2019 12:17:28 PM
Pulling back today, this thinly-traded Aerospace/Defense firm powered to new 52-week highs with impressive volume-driven gains in the past 2 weeks. Reported earnings of 12 cents per share while sales revenues were $5.8 million for the Jan '19 quarter, versus a 2 cent per share loss on $3.1 million in sales for the year ago period. Prior quarterly and annual earnings (C and A criteria) history is not a match with the guidelines of the fact-based investment system.

Gapped down and today's damaging volume-driven loss violated its 50 DMA line ($195) while near testing its 200 DMA line ($192). Reported earnings +34% on +6% sales revenues for the Feb '19 quarter, its 4th consecutive quarterly comparison above the +25% minimum earnings (C criteria) guideline. Annual earnings (A criteria) have been strong and steady. Fundamental concerns remain due to sub par sales revenues growth, not indicative of a new product or service that is in great demand.
