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

G - Previously featured in
this report as yellow and

Y - Color code is changed to yellow with new pivot point cited based on its 7/13/21 high after a cup-with-handle base. Pulling back after quietly wedging to a new all-time high.

Volume and volatility often increase near earnings news. Reported Mar '21 quarterly earnings +85% on +31% sales revenues versus the year ago period, its 4th strong comparison above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). Annual earnings (A criteria) growth has been strong and steady.

Most Recent Note for DT - 7/27/2021 12:13:10 PM
Due to report Jun '21 quarterly results before the open tomorrow. 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.

Retreating from its all-time high and testing support at its 50 DMA line ($125) with today's big loss.

Most Recent Note for FB - 7/27/2021 12:17:28 PM
Holding its ground since last noted on 7/23/21 after a gap up hitting new all-time highs with a big volume-driven gain. Very extended from any sound base. Found support above its 50 DMA line. Reported earnings +93% on +48% sales revenues for the Mar '21 quarter versus the year-ago period. Three of the past 4 quarterly comparisons have been well above the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria). Downturn in FY '19 earnings versus the year ago broke its streak of strong annual earnings increases (A criteria). Not a good match with most winning models of the fact-based investment system. Large supply of shares outstanding (S criteria) and as of Jun '21 it is heavily owned by 5,261 top-rated mutual funds. Stocks with a small supply and just beginning to attract the serious interest of institutional investors (I criteria) are considered most ideal.
