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

of experts.

G - Previously featured in
this report as yellow and

Most Recent Note for ADBE - 9/5/2018 12:17:04 PM
Retreating from its all-time high, slumping toward its 50 DMA line ($253). Wedged higher with gains lacking volume conviction since noted with caution in the 6/22/18 mid-day report - "Reported May '18 quarterly earnings +63% on +24% sales revenues. Reported strong quarterly earnings increases well above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria) with solid sales revenues growth, however, its annual earnings history (A criteria) included a downturn in FY '13 and '14, a flaw in regard to the fact-based investment system's fundamental guidelines."

Pulling back from its all-time high, testing its 50 DMA line ($97.64) earlier with today's volume-driven loss. Reported earnings +72% on -2% sales revenues for the quarter ended July 31, 2018 versus the year ago period. Fundamental concerns remain. Quarterly sales revenues and earnings history has not been steady, and its up and down annual earnings (A criteria) history is a concern. Increasing ownership by top-rated funds (I criteria) is a reassuring sign.
