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.

Most Recent Note for GOLD - 3/27/2020 12:25:53 PM
Rebounded above its 50 DMA line ($18.89) after an abrupt retreat from its high on 2/24/20. Prior mid-day reports noted - "The Jun, Sep, and Dec '19 quarterly comparisons showed greatly accelerating sales revenues and earnings growth above the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria). Up and down annual earnings (A criteria) history is a flaw. It was dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 3/14/12."

After powering to new all-time highs with a spurt volume-driven gains it is 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.
