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
candidates
highlighted
by our staff
of experts.

G - Previously featured in
this report as yellow and

G - Pulling back after spiking to new 52-week highs with volume-driven gains after announcing plans to acquire Allergan (AGN) for $66 Billion. Did not form a sound new base and its color code was changed to green while getting extended from prior highs. Its 50 DMA line ($240) defines support where a violation would raise concerns.

Most Recent Note for AMOT - 11/20/2014 12:12:15 PM
Perched at its 52-week high today after volume-driven gains, rallying with no resistance due to overhead supply. Gapped up on 11/13/14 for a considerable gain following a very strong Sep '14 earnings report, its 4th consecutive quarterly comparison with earnings well above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). Annual earnings (A criteria) growth has not been strong and steady, so it is fundamentally below guidelines of the fact-based investment system.

There was a "negative reversal" on 11/13/14 after it touched a new 52-week high. Prior mid-day reports repeatedly cautioned - "Very extended from any sound base after a streak of gains. Reported earnings +15% on +53% sales revenues for the Sep '14 quarter, below the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). Completed its $88 IPO on 9/19/14. Limited history is a concern."

Sill consolidating in a tight trading range since a considerable gap up and volume-driven gain on 8/01/14 after a proposed sale to Scientific Games Corporation (SGMS). Reported earnings +22% on +29% sales revenues for the Sep '14 quarter, and fundamental concerns remain. Noted in prior mid-day reports with caution - "A downturn in FY '10 and '11 earnings is a flaw concerning the annual earnings history (A criteria) of the fact-based investment system."

Earnings per share should be up +25% or more in 3 of the past 4 comparisons to satisfy the C criteria. Sub par quarterly sales revenues increases are below the robust growth guidelines of the investment system. Sales should be up +18-25% or more or showing great acceleration over prior quarters.

Consolidating above its 50 DMA and 200 DMA lines. Little resistance remains due to overhead supply up through the $297 level. Reported earnings +13% on +8% sales for the Sep '14 quarter, its 3rd consecutive quarterly earnings comparison below the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). Sales revenues increases have been in the +8-10% range, not suggesting truly great demand for any new (N criteria) products or services. Annual earnings (A criteria) improved greatly after an abrupt downturn in FY '09.
