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.

Y - Today's strongest

Hit a new all-time high on the prior session with its 2nd consecutive big volume-driven gain. It did not form a sound base yet rallied impressively after recently finding support at its 200 DMA line ($66). Earnings history included a -67% comparison in the Jul '19 quarter versus the year ago period, but otherwise results have been very strong with solid sales revenues growth.

Reversed abruptly after hitting a new all-time high on 3/18/20. Found prompt support near its 200 DMA line ($108) again. Prior mid-day reports cautioned members - "Reported earnings -4% on +19% sales revenues for the Dec '19 quarter versus the year ago period, breaking a streak of 3 strong quarters above the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria). Annual earnings (A criteria) have improved steadily after a downturn in FY '12-14."

Most Recent Note for JD - 4/1/2020 12:51:40 PM
Found prompt support near its 200 DMA line ($33.90) and rebounded above its 50 DMA line ($40.21). Faces some resistance due to overhead supply up to the $50 level. This Chinese retailer reported earnings +14% on +22% sales revenues for the Dec '19 quarter, breaking a streak of much stronger increases in the 4 prior quarterly comparisons versus the year ago periods. Up and down annual earnings (A criteria) history is not a match with the fact-based investment system's fundamental guidelines.

Impressively rebounded above its 50 and 200 DMA lines with recent volume-driven gains. Fundamental concerns remain. Reported earnings +6% on +4% sales revenues for the Dec '19 quarter and prior quarterly comparisons were below the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria). This Switzerland-based Computer - Hardware/Peripherals firm went through a deep V shaped pullback since challenging its all-time high in January after a deep 18-month consolidation.

Three of the past 4 comparisons were above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria).

Rallying impressively with a spurt of 5 consecutive volume-driven gains. Quarterly and annual earnings history (C and A criteria) is not a match with the fundamental guidelines of the fact-based investment system.

Reported strong earnings increases in the Sep and Dec '19 quarters versus the year ago periods. Erratic sales revenues growth is a concern. With respect to the C and A criteria, its prior earnings history has been erratic and below the fact-based system's fundamental guidelines.

Most Recent Note for VIPS - 4/1/2020 1:04:30 PM
Reported earnings +116% on +11% sales revenues for the Dec '19 quarter, its 3rd strong quarterly comparison with earnings above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). Found prompt support near its 50 DMA line during its consolidation after a big gap up and volume-driven gain on 3/05/20. Faces resistance due to overhead supply up to the $19 level. Apr '15 high was $30, up considerably from its Mar '12 IPO at a split-adjusted $0.70 per share. Completed a Secondary offering on 3/11/14. Downturn in FY '18 is a noted flaw in its annual earnings (A criteria) history.
