Y - Challenged its 52-week high and pivot point with today's early gain following 4 consecutive losses marked by higher volume. Highlighted again in yellow in the 10/12/20 mid-day report with a new pivot point cited based on its 9/01/20 high plus 10 cents. Subsequent gains above the pivot point backed by at least +40% above average volume may trigger a new technical buy signal. Its Relative Strength Rating has improved to 84, above the 80+ minimum guideline for buy candidates. Three of the past 4 quarterly comparisons through Jun '20 were at or above the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria). It was dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 8/07/20 and found support well above its 200 DMA line during recent consolidations.
