Most Recent Note for ASR - 4/12/2012 11:52:48 AM Hit a new 52-week high today. A couple of volume-driven gains helped it recently rally from support at its 50 DMA line.

Most Recent Note for BECN - 4/12/2012 11:56:38 AM Consolidating above its 50 DMA line and above prior highs defining near-term chart support after its recent rally to new 52-week and multi-year highs. The 3/14/12 mid-day report noted - "The prior session's volume-driven gain cleared an orderly consolidation above its 50 DMA line. Reported earnings +77% on +21% sales revenues for the latest quarter ended December 31, 2011 versus the year ago period. The 3 latest quarterly comparisons earnings increases were above the +25% guideline satisfying the C criteria. Downturn in FY '10 earnings is a flaw concerning the A criteria of the fact-based investment system's guidelines. It survived but failed to impress since noted in the 5/01/2009 mid-day report - 'Its up and down annual earnings history (the A criteria) is a concern.'"

Most Recent Note for CMG - 4/12/2012 12:08:22 PM It has steadily inched higher and held its ground, rallying with no resistance remaining due to overhead supply, hitting new all-time highs repeatedly since the 2/02/12 mid-day report noted - "Reported earnings +23% on +24% sales revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 versus the year ago period. Found support above its 200 DMA line during its consolidation and continued to rise since fundamental concerns prompted it to be dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 8/02/11. To satisfy the C criteria a company should show earnings increases above +25% in the past 3 or 4 quarterly comparisons or show impressive sequential acceleration in recent earnings increases, rather than being up and down with results that are lackluster and only borderline with the minimum guideline."
