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.

G - Prior session's gain and strong close was backed by +69% above average volume, a reassuring sign of fresh institutional buying demand. Color code is changed to green as it has rallied above its "max buy" level and hit new all-time highs. Retested its 50 DMA line ($679) which defines important near-term support. More damaging losses would raise concerns and trigger technical sell signals.

Y - On track today for its 5th consecutive small gain into new high territory. A new pivot point was recently cited based on its 6/21/21 high while building on a cup-with-high-handle base. Confirming gains with at least +40% above average volume for new highs would help clinch a proper new (or add-on) technical buy signal and be a reassuring sign of fresh institutional buying demand.

Y - Hitting new all-time highs with today's 5th consecutive gain backed by higher volume. Color code was changed to yellow with pivot point cited based on its 6/07/21 high plus 10 cents. Its 6-week consolidation has the look of a riskier "late-stage" base after finding prompt support again at its 50 DMA line ($84.42). Reported Mar '21 quarterly earnings +317% on +83% sales revenues versus the year ago period, adding to its strong earnings track record.

Slumped well below the prior low with 5 consecutive volume-driven losses. Met resistance near its 50 DMA line in recent weeks. Marked its 52-week high when noted with caution in the 6/03/21 mid-day report - "Reported earnings +115% on -10% sales revenues for the Mar '21 quarter versus the year ago period. Prior quarterly and annual earnings history (C and A criteria) and sub par sales revenues growth is not a match with the fact-based investment system's fundamental guidelines."

Most Recent Note for DT - 7/22/2021 12:46:38 PM
Wedged into new high territory with recent gains, getting extended from prior highs in the $56 area. Patient investors may watch for a new base or secondary buy point to possibly develop and be noted in the weeks ahead. Fundamentals through the Mar '21 quarter have been strong, however sequential quarterly comparisons show deceleration in its earnings growth rate. Since noted on 5/04/21 when dropped from the Featured Stocks list it found support at its 200 DMA line then made steady progress.
