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.

Most Recent Note for CHKP - 8/17/2011 12:12:19 PM
Reversed into the red after early gains today following 4 consecutive volume-driven gains that helped it rally back above its 50 DMA and 200 DMA lines. Reported earnings +17% on +15% sales revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 versus the year ago period. Prior mid-day reports noted - "This Israel-based Computer Software - Security firm has earned high ranks and has a history of steady sales revenues and earnings increases (not showing acceleration) below the fact-based investment system's minimum guidelines."

Rebounded from a 50 DMA line violation since last noted in the 8/09/11 mid-day report - "Fundamentals are still sub par today. Quarterly sales revenues increases in the +1-6% range for the past 8 comparisons versus the year ago period are an indication there has not been great growth in demand for its products."

Most Recent Note for MNRO - 8/17/2011 12:21:33 PM
Reported earnings +14% on +4% sales revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 versus the year ago period, not a good match, fundamentally, with the investment system's winning models. Found support at its 200 DMA line during its consolidation since last noted in the 7/21/11 mid-day report. No resistance remains due to overhead supply. It and similar players in the auto-repair arena have shown recent strength while consumers are fixing their old cars and holding off on new car purchases. Its annual earnings (A criteria) growth rate has been good in recent years. But in 6 of its 8 most recent quarterly earnings comparisons there are blue triangles beside the earnings figure on the chart service used by our experts - which indicates pre-tax, non-recurring items were included (where possible, such items are normally removed to provide data better suited for comparison).

Most Recent Note for PRGO - 8/17/2011 12:23:45 PM
Reported earnings +32% on +14% sales revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 versus the year ago period, beating estimates and raising guidance. Also announced that it expects to issue $350 million of notes in its fiscal second quarter pursuant to its existing Master Note Purchase Agreement. Following the news on the prior session it gapped down but then gradually rebounded into positive territory. It found prompt support at its 200 DMA line after it was dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 8/08/11. Its choppy action is not a sound base pattern.

Most Recent Note for RIC - 8/17/2011 12:25:17 PM
Consolidating within close striking distance of its 52-week high today. Volume-driven gains helped it recently rally above prior resistance in the $9 area. Its 52-week high was hit when noted in the 4/29/11 mid-day report - "Extended from any sound base pattern after numerous volume-driven gains in the past 2 months. Recent quarterly comparisons show sales revenues and earnings improvement, but its prior earnings history is below the investment system guidelines."

Most Recent Note for RL - 8/17/2011 12:27:01 PM
Pulling back after hitting a new 52-week high with 5 consecutive volume-driven gains. Promptly rebounded after undercutting its prior lows and its 200 DMA line last week. Reported earnings +57% on +32% sales revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 versus the year ago period. Prior quarterly comparisons were not consistently strong and above the +25% guidelines, however it has maintained a good annual earnings (A criteria) history.

Rebounded back above its 50 and 200 DMA lines after enduring damaging distribution in early-August. Worrisome pattern of lower highs and lower lows in recent months remains a concern, technically. Fundamentally, its quarterly and annual earnings history has been below the investment system guidelines.

On track today for a 5th consecutive gain, it has rebounded above its 50 DMA and 200 DMA lines after damaging distributional losses in prior weeks, but it has not formed a sound base pattern. This Brazilian Oil and Gas - Refining/Marketing firm showed strong sales and earning increases in recent quarterly comparisons versus the year ago period. Its annual earnings (A criteria) growth has steadily improved since a downturn in FY '07.

Reported earnings +11% on +12% sales revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 versus the year ago period. Tested support at its 200 DMA line during its consolidation since last noted in the 5/17/11 mid-day report - "Reported earnings +19% on +11% sales revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 versus the year ago period. Sales revenues increases in the +10-13% range are a sign of mediocre growth in demand for its products or services."
