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.

Volume-driven losses this week erased a lot of the previous volume-driven gains after spiking to new highs above prior resistance in the $20 area. Prior mid-day reports cautioned members - "Showed very strong sales and earnings increases in the Mar, Jun, Sep, and Dec '16 quarters, but limited annual earnings (A criteria) history is a concern. Rallied back after a rough start following its $13.50 IPO on 4/27/16."
