Most Recent Note for FB - 10/13/2016 10:38:20 AM Gapped down today testing its 50 DMA line. Reported earnings +94% on +59% sales revenues for the Jun '16 quarter, marking its 4th consecutive quarterly comparison above the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria). Impressive annual earnings history (A criteria). Not a good match with winning models of the fact-based investment system because of its large supply of shares outstanding (S criteria). It is also heavily owned by 3,405 top-rated mutual funds. That can be problematic in cases where sentiment shifts due to news events. Stocks with a small supply just beginning to attract the serious interest of institutional investors (I criteria) are most ideal.
