Reported earnings +69% on +11% sales revenues for the Dec '13 quarter, but prior quarterly earnings comparisons were below the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). Argentina-based bank has rallied to challenge its 52-week high. Its prior high was hit when noted in the 10/21/13 mid-day report with caution - "It has a good annual earnings (A criteria) history, but quarterly earnings comparisons have been below the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria) and sales revenues growth has shown sequential deceleration through Jun '13. It went through a deep consolidation since noted in the 9/24/10 mid-day report with caution."

Found support at its 50 DMA line during its consolidation since last noted at its 52-week high in the 3/21/14 mid-day report. Traded within close striking distance of its all-time high hit in 2011. Little resistance remains due to overhead supply. Recent quarterly comparisons through Dec '13 showed strong earnings increases above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria) but its up and down annual earnings (A criteria) is a fundamental flaw.

Up today with higher volume. Recent mid-day reports repeatedly cautioned members - "This thinly traded stock wedged higher with gains lacking volume conviction since it found support near prior highs and its 50 DMA line. Reported strong sales revenues and earnings increases in the 3 latest quarterly comparisons through Dec '13 satisfying the C criteria. Technically, it broke out with a gap up and volume-driven gain on 2/14/14 and followed through with additional confirming gains for new 52-week highs. Faces some resistance at multi-year highs in the $25-26 area. There is a very small supply of only 1.25 million shares (S criteria) in the float and only 3 top-rated funds (I criteria) own its shares."

Its 50 DMA line acted as support on the prior session after retreating from its 52-week high with 3 consecutive losses. Noted with caution in the 2/06/14 mid-day report - "Reported better that +25% earnings (C criteria) increases in the Sep and Dec '13 quarters, but fundamental concerns remain.

Consolidating above prior highs in the $25-26 area defining near-term support to watch.

Found support at its 200 DMA line during its consolidation since dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 2/28/14. Disciplined investors avoid chasing extended stocks more than +5% above prior highs and always limit losses by selling any stock that falls more than -7% from their purchase price."
