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."

Gapped down today, retreating near its 50 DMA line with volume-driven losses. Reported earnings +56% on +29% sales revenues for the quarter ended Oct '14, the 2nd consecutive quarterly comparison above the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria). Prior quarterly and annual earnings (A criteria) history has not been strong and steady.

Perched at new 52-week and all-time highs today following a considerable "breakaway gap" on the prior session. Reported earnings +16% on +3% sales revenues for the quarter ended Oct 31, 2014 versus the year ago period. 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.

Reported earnings +37% on +14% sales revenues for the Jul '14 quarter. Today's volume-driven gain has it rebounding toward prior highs and its 52-week high.

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.
