Most Recent Note for DEST - 4/7/2010 12:32:27 PM This Retail - Clothing/Shoe firm's sales revenues in the past 8 quarters were below the respective year ago periods, indicating no new growth in demand for its products or services (bad N criteria).

Its small supply (S criteria) of only 4.52 million shares in the float could contribute to greater price volatility. Up an down annual earnings (A criteria) history is also a concern.

Most Recent Note for LCUT - 4/7/2010 12:46:19 PM Inched higher for another new 52 week high today.

SHOO - NASDAQ - CONSUMER NON-DURABLES - Textile - Apparel Footwear Steven Madden Limited	$51.30	+1.73 3.49%	NA	$51.48	-0.35%	239,149 96.82%	247,000
Most Recent Note for SHOO - 4/7/2010 1:03:33 PM Hit a new 52-week high and all-time high today with another solid gain. As noted in recent mid-day reports, "The high-ranked Apparel firm followed through to new highs with gains backed by above average volume after a brief consolidation above its prior chart highs. Technically, its gain on 3/01/10 with volume helped it break out from an orderly base. Quarterly earnings increases have been well above the +25% guideline, satisfying the C criteria. Its up and down annual (the A criteria) earnings history makes it a sub par candidate, and sales revenues increases have been in the +7% to +17% range, not especially strong or meeting the +25% guideline."
