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.

Most Recent Note for AIXG - 3/9/2011 12:07:45 PM
Recently churning above average volume while consolidating near its all-time high and finding support at its 50 DMA line. It went through a deep consolidation below its 200 DMA line in the interim since noted on 4/21/10. Then, after several small gaps higher with above average volume helped it rally from a "reverse-head-and-shoulders" type pattern, it was noted - "This German firm is a high-ranked Electronics - Semiconductor Equipment company that has shown good earnings growth in recent years, but quarterly sales and earnings results have been erratic and below the investment system's guidelines."

Consolidating near its 52-week high today. Held its ground and made additional progress 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."

Recent insider buying is a reassuring sign, and no overhead supply remains to act as resistance. The 3/08/11 mid-day report noted - "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.'"

Hit a new 52-week high today, adding to a recent spurt of gains with above average volume that 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.

Rallying toward its 52-week high today after recently consolidating below its 50 DMA line. Earnings increases in recent quarters were above the +25% guideline and yet sales revenues increases have been only in the +10-12% range. Its annual earnings history (A criteria) has been up and down and below guidelines.

Most Recent Note for SSYS - 3/9/2011 12:32:18 PM
Holding its ground near its 52-week high today, 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."

Hovering near its 52-week high today, pulling back after a spurt of 9 gains in 10 sessions. Prior mid-day reports noted - "Recent quarters showed better sales and earnings increases versus losses in the year earlier periods. 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."

Most Recent Note for SVM - 3/9/2011 12:35:38 PM
Hovering near all-time highs today. Prior mid-day reports noted - "While rising just above previously stubborn resistance in the $13 area, no overhead supply remains to act as resistance. It completed a Public Offering on 12/14/10 after it was noted in a handful of Nov and Dec '10 mid-day reports - 'This low-priced Canadian mining company's considerable gain with heavy volume for a new 52-week high may catch the eye of some technical traders. Its 4 latest quarterly comparisons show strong sales revenues and earnings increases following negative comparisons in the prior 4 quarters. Last noted in the 5/13/10 mid-day report after a then recent surge to new highs, then it subsequently slumped below its 200 DMA line before rebounding impressively. Poor annual earnings (A criteria) history is a fundamental concern.'"

Hitting a new 52-week high today with a 3rd consecutive gain on above average volume. Prior mid-day reports noted - "Hovering near its 52-week high since a considerable gap up gain on 2/24/11 following its strong earnings news for the quarter ended December 31, 2010 versus the year ago period. Recent quarterly comparisons show improving sales revenues and earnings, but its prior history has been erratic and below the investment system's guidelines."

Gapped down today, testing its 50 DMA line that defines important support above an earlier chart high ($33.93 on 12/09/10). Recent quarterly comparisons show sales and earnings increases that have been strong but decelerating. Its annual earnings history (A criteria) has been below the guidelines of the fact-based investment system.

Gapped down today, consolidating above its 50 DMA line while building on a short flat base still below minimum length. Prior mid-day reports noted - "No resistance remains due to overhead supply. It has a good annual earnings (A criteria) history and quarterly earnings have been above the +25% guideline in 4 of the past 5 comparisons, however sales revenues increases in the +10-13% range are a sign of mediocre growth in demand for its products or services."
