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
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.

Rebounded above its 50 and 200 DMA lines challenging previously stubborn resistance in the $23 area with today's 4th consecutive volume-driven gain. Reported strong Sep and Dec '19 earnings increases versus the year ago periods. Prior quarterly and annual earnings history is not a match with the fact-based investment system's fundamental guidelines (C and A criteria).

Rebounded to challenge its 52-week high. Found prompt support near its 200 DMA line last week. Reported earnings +250% on +7% sales revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2019 versus the year ago period, a 2nd strong quarterly comparison. Fundamental concerns remain as prior quarterly earnings increases were below the fact-based system's +25% minimum guideline (C criteria).

Reversed abruptly after hitting a new all-time high last week. Found prompt support near its 200 DMA line ($108) again. Prior mid-day reports cautioned members - "Reported earnings -4% on +19% sales revenues for the Dec '19 quarter versus the year ago period, breaking a streak of 3 strong quarters above the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria). Annual earnings (A criteria) have improved steadily after a downturn in FY '12-14."

Found support at its 50 DMA line ($36.67) recently while building on a short flat base after a considerable rally. Prior mid-day reports cautioned members - "Limited history is a concern. This China-based Consumer Services - Education firm completed its $10.50 IPO on 6/06/19 and completed a Secondary Offering on 11/21/19."

Most Recent Note for JD - 3/26/2020 12:32:52 PM
Found prompt support near its 200 DMA line ($33.63) and rebounded above its 50 DMA line ($40). Faces some resistance due to overhead supply up to the $50 level. 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.

Consolidating after powering to a new all-time high with 6 consecutive volume-driven gains. Very extended from any sound base. Completed its $36.00 IPO on 4/18/19. Limited annual history (A criteria) is a concern. Reported earnings +275% on +78% sales revenues for the Jan '20 quarter. Prior quarterly comparisons also showed very strong sales revenues and great earnings increases versus the year ago periods.
