G - Reported earnings +30% on +24% sales revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2010 versus the year earlier. Churning heavy volume this week without making meaningful price progress above its December highs is action indicative of distributional pressure following its 2/17/11 technical breakout.

Consolidating above prior highs and well above its 50 DMA line since noted in the 2/15/11 mid-day report - "Touched a new all-time high today with its 12th gain in 13 sessions.

Its fundamentals have remained below the guidelines of the investment system."

Hovering near its 52-week high after a small gap up today. It held its ground and climbed higher since its 2/10/11 breakaway gap. Prior mid-day reports noted - "Recent quarters showed better sales and earnings increases versus the year earlier. Prior quarterly comparisons and annual earnings (A criteria) growth have not been strong and steady, so it is fundamentally below guidelines of the fact-based investment system."

Holding its ground today, it gapped up for a new 52-week high on 2/24/11 after reporting earnings +142% on +27% sales revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2010 versus the year ago period. Fundamentals do not meet guidelines of the fact-based investment system, especially after a loss in FY '09. It was noted 10/30/07 -"Questionable annual earnings history (not a strong A)."

Slumping toward its 50 DMA line this week. The 2/16/11 mid-day report noted - "Extended from any sound base pattern. Recent quarters showed much better sales and earnings increases versus losses the year earlier. Prior quarterly comparisons and annual earnings (A criteria) growth have not been strong and steady, so it is fundamentally below guidelines of the fact-based investment system."

Gapped up for a considerable gain and new 52-week high today, and no overhead supply remains to act as resistance. Leadership in the Oil and Gas industry (L criteria) is reassuring. Its annual earnings history (A criteria) has been great. Quarterly earnings rose only +3% on +64% sales revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2010 versus the year ago period. The Street has earnings estimates for 0% growth for FY '11.

Most Recent Note for IPGP - 2/25/2011 12:42:55 PM
Gapped up today for a new all-time high following a brief consolidation since last noted in the 2/15/11 mid-day report. Reported impressive earnings +700% on +86% sales revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 20101 versus the year ago period. A downturn in FY '09 earnings is a flaw with respect to the A criteria of the fact-based system. It is extended from any sound base pattern. Prior mid-day reports noted - "Its prior history has been erratic and below guidelines of the fact-based system.'"

Recent quarters showed better sales and earnings increases versus the year earlier. Prior quarterly comparisons and annual earnings (A criteria) growth have not been strong and steady, so it is fundamentally below guidelines of the fact-based investment system.

A recent spurt of volume-driven gains helped it clear an orderly base pattern. Prior mid-day reports noted - 'Earnings history has been erratic and below guidelines. Found support at its 50 DMA line after it proposed a Public Offering on 10/18/10, and subsequently rallied to new highs.'"

Perched near its 52-week high today, enduring distributional pressure and churning above average volume in recent weeks without making meaningful price progress . Since its 1/24/11 mid-day report appearance it completed a Public Offering on 1/27/11 and has been consolidating above its 50 DMA line. Prior mid-day reports noted - "Its earnings and sales history has been erratic and it slumped from $60 to $3 and completed 2 additional Public Offerings since last noted on 9/26/07 with cautionary tone. It has been rebounding impressively, but fundamentals are below the guidelines."

Holding its ground today following a gap up gain on heavy volume to a new 52-week high, reaching levels not seen since 2001. Recent quarters showed much better sales and earnings increases versus the year earlier. Prior quarterly comparisons and annual earnings (A criteria) growth have not been strong and steady, so it is fundamentally below guidelines of the fact-based investment system.

Gapped up for a second day in a row, hitting another new 52-week high today. The 2/24/11 mid-day report noted - "No overhead supply remains to hinder its progress. It promptly repaired a 50 DMA line violation in January while consolidating and then continued rising since completing a Public Offering of additional shares on 11/19/10. Previously noted an additional offering earlier last year on 4/15/10. It has attracted an increasing number of top-rated funds as shareholders. Recent quarters show great sales and earnings increases versus minuscule numbers for the year ago period. Leadership in the industry group (L criteria) is helping it fare well, but its limited earnings history and repeated stock offerings are cause for some concern. "

Gapped up today and hit another new all-time high. Rallying following its latest earnings report after losses earlier this week led to a test of support at its 50 DMA line. The 1/26/11 mid-day report noted - "Stubbornly held its ground following its considerable gain on 12/06/10 with very heavy volume. It built orderly base-on-base type patterns in recent months since clearing its 2008 high ($29.26). Recent quarters showed improving sales and earnings increases but prior comparisons were negative and its up and down annual earnings (A criteria) track record is below guidelines of the fact-based system."

Hit another new 52-week high today then reversed into the red following a considerable gain on above average volume after hovering in a tight range near its 52-week high since a 2/09/11 gap up gain on heavy volume. Recent Sep and Dec '10 quarters showed much better sales and earnings increases versus the year earlier. Prior quarterly comparisons and annual earnings (A criteria) growth have not been strong and steady, so it is fundamentally below guidelines of the fact-based investment system.
