Most Recent Note for CBRL - 6/4/2012 12:10:04 PM
No overhead supply remains to act as resistance while it is now perched near its 52-week high hit on 5/22/12, a day that marked a "negative reversal". Reported earnings +48% on +4% sales revenues for the quarter ended April 30, 2012 versus the year ago period. Prior quarterly comparisons were sub par with respect to the C criteria. Made steady progress and found support near its 50 DMA line in recent months. It survived but failed to impress since noted in the 11/22/10 mid-day report - "Rallying above a multi-month downward trendline after finding support at its 200 DMA line in August. Earnings and sales revenues growth has been sluggish in recent quarterly comparisons and it has a slow but steady annual earnings (A criteria) history."

Sputtering below its 50 DMA line which recently acted as resistance, and its prior low ($27.80 on 5/21/12) defines important near-term support. Comcast Corp Cl A (CMCSA) is currently included on the Featured Stocks list, however it has sputtered since featured in yellow in the 5/02/12 mid-day report. There is no great difference in the two classes of its shares, particularly from the standpoint of the fact-based investment system.

Still perched near its 52-week high today. When trying to rally from a "double bottom" base pattern the 5/29/12 mid-day report noted - "Reported earnings +0% on +21% sales revenues for the Mar '12 quarter. Quarterly earnings increases were well short of the +25% minimum guideline in the Sep and Dec '11 quarters. It survived but failed to impress since noted in the 12/16/10 mid-day report - 'On 12/06/10 it broke out from a flat base above its 50 DMA line and a previous cup shaped base. Quarterly earnings per share have been below the +25% guideline and its annual earnings (A criteria) history has been erratic, including a decrease in FY '08 earnings versus the year earlier.'"

Earnings history has been erratic and below the investment system's guidelines, and a lack of sales revenues growth indicates no great demand for its products or services.

Consolidating above its 50 DMA line building an orderly base pattern. Recent quarterly comparisons show great earnings increases, but a lack of sales revenues growth and its sub par annual earnings (A criteria) history leave fundamental concerns.

Holding its ground in a tight range since the 5/23/12 mid-day report noted - "This low-priced stock has built an orderly flat base over the past 4 months. Low-priced stocks are discouraged from consideration unless all key criteria are solidly satisfied. Its sales revenues and earnings history are not a match with the fact-based investment system's guidelines concerning the C and A criteria."

Most Recent Note for PRA - 6/4/2012 12:34:21 PM
Consolidating in an orderly fashion since last noted in the 2/23/12 mid-day report when spiking to another new 52-week high. An earlier volume-driven gain on 2/01/12 helped it break out from the orderly base-on-base type pattern. Annual earnings (A criteria) history has been steady but estimates are calling for -34% earnings for FY '12. Quarterly comparisons show 2 of the past 3 earnings increases below the +25% minimum guideline through Mar '12 and sub par sales revenues growth is a concern.

Recently slumping below its 50 DMA line toward its 200 DMA line. Earnings increases in recent quarterly comparisons have improved, but lackluster sales revenues growth is a concern. Its annual earnings (A criteria) history has been improving after a downturn and loss in FY '08.

Prior mid-day reports noted - "Recent quarters showed strong earnings increases versus the year earlier that satisfy the C criteria. Its annual earnings (A criteria) history included a downturn in FY '08 & '09 that raised fundamental concerns with respect to the guidelines of the fact-based investment system."

Most Recent Note for TFM - 6/4/2012 12:38:54 PM
Perched near its 52-week today after volume-driven gains last week including a considerable gap up on 5/30/12 from below its 50 DMA line. A downturn in FY '11 earnings is a flaw concerning the A criteria. The M criteria argues against new buying efforts in all stocks until a new confirmed rally with a solid follow through day from at least one of the major averages. The 5/30/12 mid-day report noted - "Reported earnings +33% on +23% sales revenues for the quarter ended April 30, 2012 versus the year ago period. Now 3 of the company's past 4 quarterly comparisons showed earnings above the +25% minimum satisfying the C criteria. It had slumped below its 50 DMA line while consolidating from highs hit since last noted in the 4/13/12 mid-day report - 'Quarterly and annual earnings increases (C & A criteria) are not a match with the fact-based system's guidelines.'"

Consolidating less than -5% off its 52-week high, bouncing today near its 50 DMA line which may act as a support level along with earlier highs in the $48-49 area. Quarterly earnings increases have been below the +25% minimum guideline.
