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

Most Recent Note for ABR - 2/19/2019 11:58:09 AM
Challenging its 52-week high with today's 2nd big volume-driven gain. Reported earnings +16% on +55% sales revenues for the Dec '18 quarter. Completed a new Public Offering on 11/29/18, as it pulled back into the prior base after hitting new 52-week highs. This REIT was noted with caution in prior mid-day reports - "Reported earnings +48% on +37% sales revenues for the the Sep '18 quarter, its 2nd strong quarterly comparison. Fundamental concerns remain. Erratic earnings history is not a match with the fact-based investment system's guidelines."

This Israel-based Telecom firm touched a new 52-week high on the prior session but reversed into the red. Due to report earnings news.

Hitting a new 52-week high with today's 6th consecutive gain marked by above average volume. Three of the past 4 quarterly comparisons through Dec '18 showed strong sales revenues growth and earnings increases above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). Annual earnings history has been improving, but a big downturn in FY '15 is a flaw with regard to the fact-based investment system's fundamental guidelines.
