Consolidating near its 52-week high following a big gap up gain with heavy volume on 3/01/12 clearing prior highs in the $46-47 area that were a stubborn resistance level. Earnings and sales growth through the Jan '12 quarterly comparison remains sub par since noted in the 7/07/11 mid-day report - "Sales and earnings history is below the fact-based investment system guidelines. It survived but failed to impress since it was dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 10/10/08. Traded up as much as +37.15% after first featured in the 4/16/08 CANSLIM.net Mid-Day BreakOuts Report (read here)."

Prior mid-day reports noted - "Sales revenues and earnings history is not a match with the fact-based investment system's guidelines. Erratic price action in the past week indicates uncertainty while it proposed a new Public Offering on 12/09/11 and a 2:1 split impacted its share price effective 12/19/11."

Most Recent Note for COH - 3/8/2012 12:11:22 PM
Today's considerable gap up and volume-driven gain helped it hit a new all-time high, clear of any resistance due to overhead supply. Its quarterly and annual earnings history are not a solid match with the investment system's guidelines. Reported earnings +18% on +15% sales revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 versus the year ago. After a streak of flat or negative sales and earnings comparisons and a downward turn in FY '09 earnings (flaw in regard to the A criteria) its recent results have been sub par. This previously Featured Stock once put up great gains and matched the investment system criteria following its Oct 2002 appearance.

Hitting a new 52-week high with another volume-driven gain today. Held its ground following a considerable gap up and volume-driven gain on 2/09/12 after reporting strong sales and earnings increases for the latest (Dec '11) quarter. Low-priced stocks are discouraged from consideration under the fact-based system unless all key criteria are solidly satisfied. It went through a deep consolidation below its 50 DMA line from the prior high since noted in the 12/22/11 mid-day report - "The 3 latest quarterly comparisons through September '11 showed strong sales revenues and earnings increases versus the year ago periods, however its annual earnings (A criteria) history has not been strong and steady."

Damaging gap down today with heavy volume, diving well below its 50 DMA line while encountering damaging distributional pressure. It was suffering a volume-driven loss and retreating from all-time highs when last noted in the 1/24/12 mid-day report - "Reported earnings +16% on +10% sales revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2011. The global burger giant's stock is viewed as a "safe haven" and longtime favorite for some institutional investors, however, with 1.023 billion shares outstanding it is unlikely to be a sprinter capable of many-fold price increases. Earnings increases in the quarterly comparisons have not met the +25% minimum guideline, and sales revenues increases have been sub par."

Hitting another new 52-week high today, still climbing following a test of support at its 50 DMA line last week. Reported earnings +18% on +8% sales revenues for the quarter ended January 31, 2012 versus the year ago period.
