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.

Y - Rebounding from below its 50 DMA line this week, helping its technical stance improve. Color code is changed to yellow with new pivot point cited based on its 4/26/12 high. Subsequent volume-driven gains above the pivot point are needed to trigger a technical buy signal. The major averages (M criteria) also need to confirm a new rally with a solid follow-through day before any new buying efforts are justified under the fact-based investment system. Earnings increases have been above the +25% guideline, satisfying the C criteria, and backed by solid sales revenues increases in the 3 latest quarterly comparisons through Mar '12. This Luxembourg-based Financial Services firm's small supply (S criteria) of only 15.4 million shares in the public float can contribute to greater volatility in the event of institutional buying or selling. ASPS was dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 10/07/10 then violated its 200 DMA with a streak of volume-driven losses, and it subsequently rebounded.

Y - Reported earnings +31% on +13% sales revenues for the quarter ended April 30, 2012 versus the year ago period. Pulling back today from all-time highs with a 3rd consecutive loss backed by above average volume and testing support near its 50 DMA line again. No resistance remains due to overhead supply. The broader market (M criteria) has yet to confirm a new rally, however, and without a solid follow-through day from at least one of the major averages all new buying efforts are discouraged under the fact-based investment system.

Hitting a new 52-week high today while on track for a 5th consecutive weekly gain. It faces additional overhead supply that may act as resistance. Prior mid-day reports noted - "Earnings history is not a match with the fact-based investment system. Low-priced stocks are discouraged from consideration unless all key criteria are solidly satisfied."

Hitting yet another new 52-week high with a gain today backed by above average volume adding to its recent spurt higher. It is extended from any sound base pattern after a recent streak of volume-driven gains, up from its $14 IPO on 3/08/12. Limited history is a concern.

Recently rallying from below its 200 DMA line with volume-driven gains, rebounding toward its 52-week high and previously stubborn resistance in the $83 area. Last noted in the 9/22/11 mid-day report - "Several leaders in the recently strong Mining - Gold/Silver/Gems group (L criteria) are perched near all-time highs with no resistance remaining to hinder their progress. Its up and down annual earnings (A criteria) history does not meet the investment system guidelines, but recent quarterly comparisons showed mostly strong sales revenues and earnings increases versus the year ago period."

Most Recent Note for TFM - 6/5/2012 12:19:49 PM
Still 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.'"

Pulling back after challenging its 52-week high, slumping below its 50 DMA line with today's 3rd consecutive loss backed by above average volume. A streak of volume-driven gains helped it recently rally from support at its 50 DMA line. Prior mid-day reports noted - "Reported earnings +51% on +12% sales revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 versus the year ago period. Prior earnings and sales increases have not met the fact-based investment system's guidelines for the C and A criteria although it has earned good ranks."

Hit a new 52-week high today. Its 50 DMA line acted as a support level recently along with earlier highs in the $48-49 area.
