Hovering near its 52-week high with no overhead supply to act as resistance. Stayed well above its 50 DMA line while consolidating since noted in the 1/18/11 mid-day report when posting a 5th consecutive gain and hitting a new high. Prior mid-day reports noted - "It recently rallied well above its 2008 high ($33.60) after clearing it. Recent quarters show sales and earnings improving but prior history is below the fact-based system's guidelines.

Most Recent Note for BGS - 3/8/2011 11:48:27 AM
Stubbornly holding its ground near all-time highs after a considerable volume-driven gain on 3/02/11. Reported earnings +100% on +5% sales revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2010 versus the year ago period. Its earnings history has been strong, but the lack of sales revenues growth raises concerns that there is not great or growing demand for a new (N criteria) product or services.

Most Recent Note for COO - 3/8/2011 11:55:08 AM
Up today for a new 52-week high after holding its ground following its considerable gap up gain on 3/04/11 with heavy volume. The 3/04/11 mid-day report noted - "Steadily advanced since a 9/03/10 breakaway gap, continually finding support above its 50 DMA line. 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. It survived but failed to impress since dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 3/29/05."

Sales revenues and earnings increases solidly improved in the December 2010 quarter, but prior quarterly and annual earnings (A criteria) history has been sub par. Hit a new 52-week high this week after a brief consolidation during which it stayed well above prior highs and its 50 DMA line.

Perched near 52-week and multi-year highs with no resistance due to overhead supply following a streak of gains with above average volume. Recent quarters showed much better earnings increases with lackluster sales revenues increases versus the year earlier. It promptly found support near its 50 DMA line while consolidating after the 1/26/11 mid-day report noted - "Its annual earnings (A criteria) growth has not been strong and steady, so it is fundamentally below guidelines of the fact-based investment system."

Most Recent Note for FCFS - 3/8/2011 12:17:25 PM
Perched near its 52-week high today with no resistance remaining due to overhead supply. Recently found support after briefly violating its 50 DMA line again, and that important short-term average defined a support level during its ascent following a technical breakout on 7/22/10. Reported earnings +37% on +17% sales revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2010 versus the year ago period, and similar increases for the September period. Prior quarterly comparisons' earnings and sales increases were borderline or below the guidelines of the fact-based investment system. Its annual earnings (A criteria) history appears to have been steady, but prior notes in mid-day reports in Dec '08 and Apr '09 cited "fundamental concerns." This previously featured stock was dropped from the CANSLIM.net Featured Stocks list on 2/27/07.

Hovering near its 52-week high, and recently rallying within close striking distance of its all-time high ($27.22 in April 2009). Found support at its 50 DMA line since noted in the 2/09/11 mid-day report following a gap down - "Earnings increases have been strong in the latest quarterly comparisons versus year-ago losses, but its history of losses is below the guidelines of the fact-based investment system."

Perched at its 52-week high today, pausing after a streak of 7 consecutive gains with ever-increasing volume helped it rally above prior resistance. Recent quarters show sales and earnings improving but its prior earnings history (including a loss for FY '10) is below the fact-based system's guidelines.

Powering to another new all-time high with above average volume behind today's 5th consecutive gain. Last noted in the 2/15/11 mid day report when hitting a new high following an orderly flat base above its 50 DMA line - "It doesn't have any profitable years (A criteria) in its past, yet recent quarterly comparisons showed greatly improved sales revenues and earnings increases versus year ago losses. The Medical - Ethical Drugs firm went through a deep consolidation since last noted in the 3/19/10 mid-day report that it - 'Rose more than 20-fold from its low of $0.52 in April 2009.'"

Most Recent Note for NVO - 3/8/2011 12:32:17 PM
Perched near its all-time high following a recently noted spurt of volume-driven gains. Found great support near its 50 DMA line throughout its ongoing ascent. It now faces no resistance due to overhead supply, but it is not near a sound base pattern. Disciplined investors may watch for a proper new base or secondary buy point to develop which may subsequently be noted. Reported earnings +63% on +15% sales revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2010, so 3 of the 4 latest quarterly comparisons now have earnings increases above the +25% guideline. It has earned high ranks after demonstrating strong steady annual earnings (A criteria) growth. This Denmark-based Medical - Ethical Drug firm also has seen the number of top-rated funds owning its shares rise from 152 in Mar '10 to 184 in Dec '10, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria.

Consolidating above its 50 DMA line and perched just -4% off its 52-week high. Reported earnings +32% on +25% sales revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2010 versus the year ago period. Prior quarterly comparisons showed sales revenues and earnings increases below the fact-based investment system's guidelines and a dip in its FY '09 earnings is a flaw with respect to the A criteria.

Most Recent Note for SSYS - 3/8/2011 12:51:16 PM
Touched another new 52-week high today, getting more extended from any sound base. Healthy action has continued since a considerable gain on 2/09/11 with heavy volume was noted as technically another "breakaway gap" following it latest earnings report. Prior mid-day reports noted - "A downward turn in its FY '09 earnings is an obvious flaw with respect to the investment system's A criteria today. It is an interesting turn around story with a small supply of only 20.6 million shares (S criteria) outstanding. Longtime members may recall that SSYS was long ago (2003) featured in our monthly newsletter and special reports."
