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
now may no longer be buyable
under the guidelines.

Y - Color code is changed to yellow with new pivot point cited based on its 12/04/24 high plus 10 cents. Rallying from support near its 50 DMA line ($716) and hitting a new 52-week high with today's big volume-driven gain. A gain and strong close above the pivot point may clinch a technical buy signal. Fundamentals remain strong. It went through a deep consolidation and rebounded since dropped from the Featured Stocks list when last noted on 5/02/24.

Y - Hitting yet another new all-time high with today's volume-driven gain. Color code is changed to yellow with new pivot point cited based on its 12/04/24 high plus 10 cents after a short flat base. Found prompt support after briefly undercutting its 50 DMA line ($1,076). A gain and strong close above the pivot point backed by at least +40% above average volume may clinch a new (or add-on) technical buy signal. Fundamentals remain strong after it reported Sep '24 quarterly earnings +27% on +22% sales revenues versus the year-ago period. It was dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 4/19/24.

Gapped down today and violated its 50 DMA line ($72), abruptly retreating following a "negative reversal" at its all-time high after 3 volume-driven gains. Reported earnings +34% on +30% sales revenues for the Dec '24 quarter versus the year ago period, its 2nd strong earnings increase above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). Fundamental concerns remain. Quarterly and annual earnings history is not a match with the investment system's fundamental guidelines (C and A criteria).

Most Recent Note for CRM - 1/27/2025 12:59:08 PM
Today's big volume-driven gain has it rebounding above its 50 DMA line ($337) toward its all-time high. Found support while consolidating near its March '24 high since last noted in the 12/05/24 mid-day report with caution - <i>"Reported Oct '24 quarterly earnings +14% on +8% sales revenues versus the year ago period, its 2nd subpar quarter after a streak of 5 strong quarterly comparisons above the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria). Went through a long and deep consolidation from its high in 2021. Large supply of 956 million shares outstanding (S criteria) makes it an unlikely sprinter, and it is already owned by more than 4,972 top-rated funds (I criteria). A slight downturn in its FY '22 annual earnings (A criteria) history has been followed with very strong growth."</i>
