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 - 8/25/2017 12:11:48 PM
Y - Pulling back and testing support at its 50 DMA line ($246.62) today after reporting earnings +42% on +18% sales revenues for the Jul '17 quarter. Volume and volatility often increase near earnings news. Color code was changed to yellow with pivot point cited based on its 6/05/17 high plus 10 cents as it was noted in the 8/24/17 mid-day report - "Subsequent volume-driven gains above the pivot and for new highs may trigger a technical buy signal. Prior quarterly and annual earnings history (C and A criteria) is a good match with the fact-based investment system's fundamental guidelines."

Perched near its 52-week high after a big gap up on 8/17/17 and additional volume-driven gains, getting very extended from any sound base. Disciplined investors may watch for a new base or secondary buy point to possibly develop and be noted in the weeks ahead. Reported Jun '17 quarterly earnings +60% on +53% sales revenues, its 4th quarterly comparison well above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). Completed its $88 IPO on 9/19/14. Owned already by 2,607 top-rated funds. The fact-based investment system's guidelines suggest finding stocks when beginning to attract institutional interest.

Most Recent Note for CRM - 8/25/2017 12:13:16 PM
Powering into all-time high territory this week with a streak of volume-driven gains. Earnings rose +38% on +26% sales revenues for the Jul '17 quarter, but prior quarterly comparisons did not show strong and steady earnings increases above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). Downturn in FY '14 was noted as a flaw in its annual earnings (A criteria) history. Already owned by more than 1,859 top-rated funds (I criteria). Made gradual progress since 10/06/10 when this Computer Software -Enterprise firm was dropped from the Featured Stocks list.

Gapped up hitting a new high, rising from a cup shaped base with today's 6th consecutive gain. Reported very strong earnings and sales revenues increases for the Oct '16, Jan and Apr '17 quarters. Prior sales revenues growth and earnings history is not a match with the fact-based investment system's fundamental guidelines.

Gapped up a few times recently hitting new all-time highs, rallying amid M&A rumors. Prior mid-day reports repeatedly cautioned members - "Reported earnings +58% on +3% sales revenues for the Jun '17 quarter. Prior sales revenues and earnings growth has been erratic, not a match with the fact-based investment system's fundamental guidelines."

Undercut its 50 DMA line and tested its 200 DMA line since noted with caution in the 8/07/17 mid-day report when challenging its 52-week and all-time highs with a gap up gain. Reported earnings +53% on +13% sales revenues for the Jun '17 quarter. Recent quarterly comparisons show solid sales revenues growth and earnings increases above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). Consensus earnings estimates for FY '18 are -1%, and its up and down annual earnings history (A criteria) is cause for some concern. Has a new CEO as of 9/01/16.

Met resistance today when trying to rebound above its 50 DMA line.

Shares split 2:1 effective 2/05/15. Quarterly and annual earnings history (C and A criteria) has not been strong and steady enough to meet the fact-based investment system's guidelines."

Recently hovering in a tight range near its 52 week high with volume totals cooling. Last noted in the 8/11/17 mid-day report - "The Jun '17 quarter and recent quarters showed much better sales revenues and earnings increases versus the year earlier periods. Prior quarterly and annual earnings (A criteria) history has been erratic and not a great match with the guidelines of the fact-based investment system."
