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.

G - Its consolidation of about 4 weeks has the look of a bullish base-on-base type pattern forming, but a proper "flat base" should be a minimum of 5 weeks in length. Support to watch is at its 50 DMA line and prior chart highs.

Consolidating near prior highs today with volume totals cooling after a considerable gain on 3/04/11 for a new 52-week high. It had dipped below its 50 DMA line since last noted in the 2/15/11 mid-day report - "The C criteria is satisfied by quarterly earnings increases above the +25% guideline, however the downturn in FY '09 earnings is a flaw concerning the A criteria."

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."

This week's gains helped find support near its 50 DMA line. Reported earnings +8% on +19% sales revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2010. It may be building another choppier base-on-base type pattern since last noted in the 1/27/11 mid-day report - "It faces no resistance due to overhead supply. Quarterly comparisons show strong but decelerating sales revenues increases and earnings increases below the +25% guideline."

Most Recent Note for GMCR - 3/11/2011 12:51:22 PM
Perched near its all-time high today after a gap up on 3/10/11 after news of a deal with Starbucks Corp (SBUX). It is very extended from any sound base. In recent weeks it had rallied above prior resistance in the $37-38 area, yet it had sputtered below its 50 DMA line since noted in the 11/30/10 mid-day report as it touched a new all-time high after a very choppy 9-week consolidation that included a brief trip below its 200 DMA line. It has maintained a very strong sales revenues and earnings growth history solidly satisfying the C and A criteria. This previously featured leader was dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 10/01/10.

Most Recent Note for HLF - 3/11/2011 12:52:38 PM
Hovering near its all-time high, stubbornly holding its ground after a spurt of volume-driven gains including a breakaway gap on 2/23/11 with heavy volume (5 times average daily). Reported earnings +34% on +17% sales revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2010 versus the year ago period. HLF recently rebounded above its 50 DMA line which was violated in mid-January with losses on heavy volume since noted in the 12/06/10 mid-day report - "It steadily advanced after the previously noted 8/03/10 gap up gain. This high-ranked Cosmetics / Personal Care group leader has an up and down annual earnings history (A criteria) that remains a fundamental concern. In the 4 latest quarters this network marketer of weight management and nutritional supplements showed increases in sales and earnings after 4 negative comparisons. It has rebounded impressively from its Bear Market lows, however its fundamentals are below guidelines, having slumped subsequent to the company's removal from the CANSLIM.net Featured Stocks list on 4/22/08 - details were then covered in the CANSLIM.net After Market Update with an annotated graph (read here)."

Prior mid-day reports noted after steadily rising in recent months - 'The Netherlands-based Chemicals firm's earnings history is below guidelines of the fact-based investment system.'"

Pulling back from its new 52-week high hit earlier this week, testing support near prior chart highs and its 50 DMA line. No overhead supply remains to act as resistance, yet prior mid-day reports noted - "Quarterly sales revenues and earnings are below the investment system guidelines. Based on weak action it was dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 9/15/08, soon after featured in the September 2008 issue of CANSLIM.net News (see here). First featured in the August '07 CANSLIM.net News (read here)."

Most Recent Note for NVO - 3/11/2011 1:03:56 PM
Hovering near its all-time high following a recently noted spurt of volume-driven gains. It 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 185 in Dec '10, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria.

Most Recent Note for PLL - 3/11/2011 1:10:37 PM
Reported earnings +62% on +15% sales revenues for the quarter ended January 31, 2011 versus the year-ago period. Today's gap up gain for a new high has it rising from a base-on base pattern formed since it was last noted in the 1/31/11 mid-day report - "Considerable 'breakaway gap' today, blasting from support at its 50 DMA line to a new all-time high. Technically, it broke out from the orderly base pattern formed since the 12/10/10 mid-day report noted - 'Its annual earnings (A criteria) history has not been strong and steady, considering a downturn in FY '09 earnings. Sales revenues increases have been in the +3-11% range while quarterly earnings increases have been above the +25% guideline in the 3 latest comparisons (C criteria) versus the year ago period.'"
