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 - Trading near its "max buy" level with today's volume-driven gain. Highlighted in yellow with pivot point cited based on its 3/03/20 high plus 10 cents in the prior mid-day report. Big gain and close above the pivot point was backed by +56% above average volume triggering a technical buy signal. Very little resistance remains due to overhead supply up to the $423 level. Due to report earnings news on 4/21/20. Volume and volatility often increase near earnings news. Reported earnings +333% on +31% sales revenues for the Dec '19 quarter, its 2nd consecutive very strong quarter. Rebounded above its 200 DMA line ($323) and above its 50 DMA line ($363) following an abrupt slump. Went through a choppy consolidation since dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 7/30/18. See the latest FSU analysis for more details and an annotated graph.

Challenging its 52-week high with today's big gain. 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.
