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.

Gapped up on the prior session hitting a new 52-week high on M&A news with Cisco Systems (CSCO). Noted in the 5/03/19 mid-day report - "Earnings rose +270% on +44% sales revenues for the Mar '19 quarter, its 2nd strong quarterly comparison. Prior 5 quarterly comparisons showed shrinking sales and earnings versus the year ago periods. Went through a deep consolidation since noted with caution after it proposed a new Public Offering on 9/26/16, up from its $23 IPO on 5/13/16,"

Most Recent Note for AMZN - 7/10/2019 12:24:29 PM
In recent weeks it quietly consolidated above its 50 DMA line ($1,876) and wedged higher with gains lacking great volume conviction. Mid-day reports in April, May, and June of 2019 repeatedly noted - "Earnings increases in the 6 latest quarterly comparisons through Mar '19 were very strong, well above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). Up and down annual earnings (A criteria) history is not a great match with the fact-based investment system's fundamental guidelines."

Hovering near its all-time high, recently enduring distributional pressure. Prior mid-day reports noted - "Reported earnings -40% on -12% sales revenues for the Mar '19 quarter. Prior quarterly comparisons were not strong and steady above the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria). Limited history is a concern since its $17.50 IPO on 9/26/18."

Earnings history is not a match with the fact-based investment system's guidelines (C and A criteria). Fundamental concerns remain. Sub par sales revenues growth rate reveals no great demand for new (N criteria) products or services."

Slumping further below its 50 DMA line which acted as resistance since last noted with caution in the 5/23/19 mid-day report - "Reported +31% earnings on +10% sales revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 versus the year ago period, marking the 3rd quarterly comparison above the +25% minimum (C criteria). Small downturn in FY '16 earnings was noted as a flaw with respect to the A criteria."

Most Recent Note for FB - 7/10/2019 12:38:29 PM
Wedging higher while rebounding toward its 52-week high after a deep and choppy consolidation. Reported earnings +12% on +26% sales revenues for the Mar '19 quarter, its 3rd consecutive quarterly comparison below the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria). Impressive annual earnings history (A criteria). Not a good match with most winning models of the fact-based investment system because of its large supply of shares outstanding (S criteria) and it is heavily owned by 4,159 top-rated mutual funds as of Mar '19. That can be problematic in cases where sentiment shifts due to news events. Stocks with a small supply and just beginning to attract the serious interest of institutional investors (I criteria) are considered most ideal.

Gapped up on 6/28/19 following M&A news. Noted with caution in prior mid-day reports - "Overhead supply remains as a source of some resistance. Prior quarterly and annual earnings (C and A criteria) history is not a match with fundamental guidelines. Low-priced stocks are discouraged from consideration unless all key criteria of the fact-based investment systems are satisfied."
