SSYS - NASDAQ Stratasys Ltd	$91.44	+0.52 0.57%	$94.00	702,257 91.44% of 50 DAV 50 DAV is 768,000	$94.90 -3.65%	7/8/2013	$91.44	PP = $95.00 MB = $99.75
Most Recent Note - 7/8/2013 1:36:38 PM Y - Color code is changed to yellow with pivot point cited based on its 5/14/13 high plus 10 cents. Today's 2nd consecutive volume-driven gain has it rallying toward multi-month resistance in the $92-94 area and little resistance remains due to overhead supply. Strong quarterly earnings history above the +25% minimum guideline satisfies the C criteria. The 7/05/13 mid-day report noted - "Reported earnings +54% on +116% sales revenues for the Mar '13 quarter versus the year ago period. Downward turn in its FY '09 earnings was previously noted as a flaw with respect to the investment system's A criteria. Found support near its 200 DMA line during a deep consolidation earlier this year. Ownership by top-rated funds rose from 246 in Sep '12 to 277 in Jun '13, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. It is an interesting turn around story with a small supply of 36.7 million shares (S criteria) outstanding. Longtime members may recall that SSYS was long ago (2003) featured in reports."
