It survived but failed to impress since noted in the 9/28/07 mid-day report - 'Technically broke out this week with gains on volume but it has a questionable sales and earnings history.'"

Faces no resistance due to overhead supply. Annual earnings growth (A criteria) was strong in years past, but flattened out from FY '08 through FY '10. Waning ownership interest from top-rated funds (I criteria) is another cause for concern. It is not a good match with the fact-based investment system's models of past great winners.'"
