Found support at its 50 DMA line while enduring distributional pressure when noted with caution in the prior mid-day reports - "Reported strong earnings in the Sep '12 quarter. Found support at its 200 DMA line during its consolidation since noted in the 9/13/12 mid-day report when hitting its 52-week high with a considerable volume-driven gain on news it planned to pursue a REIT conversion - 'Reported earnings +14% on +18% sales revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 versus the year ago period. Ownership by top-rated funds (I criteria) has generally been on the rise, however prior mid-day reports noted - Earnings history has been erratic. There are fundamental concerns due to pre-tax, non-recurring items included in the past 8 quarterly reports. This is indicated by blue triangles in the earnings per share box on the chart service used by CANSLIM.net experts.'"

Perched near its 52-week high today consolidating after a recently noted spurt of considerable volume-driven gains helped it rally and get very extended from any sound base pattern. Recent quarterly comparisons through Dec '12 showed greatly improved sales revenues and solid earnings increases versus low or negative year-ago results. Fundamental concerns remain, as prior mid-day reports cautioned - "Annual earnings history (A criteria) has been up and down, not a match with the fact-based investment system's guidelines. Low-priced stocks are discouraged from consideration under the fact-based investment system unless all key criteria are solidly satisfied."

Gapped up today and hit new 52-week and multi-year highs but then abruptly reversed into the red. Last noted with caution in the 2/01/13 mid-day report as a volume-driven gain helped it technically break out from a deep 8-month "cup-with-handle" type base pattern -"Showed bullish action since last noted in the 1/03/13 mid-day report with caution - 'Earnings history is not a match with the fact-based investment system's guidelines (C & A criteria).

It faces no resistance due to overhead supply. The number of top-rated funds owning its shares from 2 in Mar '12 to 19 as of Dec '12, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. Found support above its 200 DMA line during its 9-month consolidation since noted in the 4/12/12 mid-day report when hitting its 52-week high - 'The thinly traded stock has rallied 3-fold in the past year, finding support at its 50 DMA line throughout its ongoing advance.

Hitting a new 52-week high today with its 2nd consecutive big volume-driven gain. Formed a flat base over the past 10 weeks after rallying from its $11 IPO on 11/21/12. Limited history is a concern as it has reported earnings versus losses in the year ago periods in quarterly comparisons through Sep 12, it does not have a good annual earnings (A criteria) history.
