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.

Most Recent Note - 4/5/2024 11:51:26 AM
Y - Gapped up today and on track for a solid gain. On the prior session it finished in middle of its intra-day range after highlighted yellow in the mid-day report with pivot point cited based on its 2/09/24 high plus 10 cents. Hit a new 52-week high with a volume-driven gain triggering a technical buy signal after finding prompt support at its 50 DMA line ($617) in recent weeks. Reported Dec '23 quarterly earnings +59% on +24% sales revenues versus the year-ago period, its 6th consecutive quarterly comparison well above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). Annual earnings history (A criteria) has been strong. Faces some resistance due to old overhead supply up to the $866 level. See the latest FSU analysis for more details and a new annotated graph.

Hovering in a tight range near its all-time high and above its 50 DMA line.

Today's 4th consecutive gain has it hitting new multi-year highs. Stubbornly held its ground following a noted spurt of volume-driven gains.

Annual earnings history (A criteria) has been erratic and included a downturn in FY '22, not a match with the fact-based investment system's fundamental guidelines."

Powering to another new all-time high with today's considerable volume-driven gain adding to an impressive spurt higher.

There was a downturn in FY '22 earnings (A criteria)."
