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.

G - Testing support at its 50 DMA line after a gap down today on above average volume following an analyst downgrade. Recently wedged to new 52-week highs without especially great volume conviction behind its gains. It was previously noted - "No resistance remains due to overhead supply. Fundamental concerns remain after a slightly sub par earnings increase in the Dec '11 quarter."

Most Recent Note for APOG - 6/21/2012 11:53:45 AM
Gapped up today, challenging its 52-week high. Found support at its 50 DMA line while consolidating since last noted in the 5/16/12 mid-day report - "It may be an interesting turnaround story, but a loss for FY '11 is a flaw with respect to the A criteria which calls for a strong 3-5 year span of solid earnings growth."

Most Recent Note for CYS - 6/21/2012 12:03:10 PM
Today it gapped down from near its 52-week and multi-year highs, violating its 50 DMA line. Reported earnings +30% on +60% sales revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 versus the year ago period, so now its 3 latest quarterly earnings comparisons satisfy the C criteria. Last noted in the 1/27/12 mid-day report - "This REIT's quarterly and annual earnings history has been below the fact-based investment system's guidelines."

Most Recent Note for INOD - 6/21/2012 12:12:59 PM
Perched at its 52-week high today. Above average volume behind a streak of 7 consecutive gains helped it rally above prior resistance in the $6 area. Prior mid-day reports noted - "Reported earnings of 13 cents per share versus 1 cent per share with sales revenues up +71% for the latest quarter ended March 31, 2012 versus the year ago period. Its recent quarterly comparisons (through Dec '11) showed improving sales growth and big earnings increases. A loss in FY '10 and erratic annual earnings history (A criteria) leave fundamental concerns as it does not match the investment system's guidelines."

Most Recent Note for PRAA - 6/21/2012 12:17:30 PM
Rallied to within -6.1% of its 52-week high with a streak of 7 consecutive gains marked by above average volume as it rallied sharply. Reported earnings +10% on +25% sales revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 versus the year ago period, its first comparison with an earnings increase below the +25% minimum guideline in more than 2 years. The number of top-rated funds owning its shares fell from 354 in Jun '10 to 302 in Mar '12. A downturn in FY '08 and FY '09 earnings (A criteria) is a flaw in its annual earnings history.

Still perched -4.7% off its 52-week high today, holding its ground stubbornly after a streak of gains backed by above average volume. Prior mid-day reports noted - "Recent quarterly comparisons showed earnings versus year ago losses. Its annual earnings (A criteria) history has been poor, including years of losses. Low-priced stocks are discouraged from consideration under the fact-based system unless all key criteria are solidly satisfied."
