Y - Consolidating near its 50 DMA line today, pulling back for a 2nd consecutive session with above average volume, indicating distributional pressure. Highlighted in yellow with pivot point cited based on its 3/11/14 high plus 10 cents in the 5/15/14 mid-day report (read here). This Spanish firm from the Medical- Ethical Drugs industry has little resistance remaining due to overhead supply. Subsequent volume-driven gains for new highs are needed to trigger a technical buy signal. Reported earnings +34% on +25% sales revenues for the Mar '14 quarter, marking its 4th consecutive quarter with earnings above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria).

Hitting a new 52-week high with today's 4th consecutive gain. Reported earnings -30% on -12% sales revenues for the Mar '14 quarter. Prior quarterly comparisons showed better earnings increases, however sales revenues increases were waning. Annual earnings (A criteria) growth has not been strong and steady, so it is fundamentally below guidelines of the fact-based investment system.

Still holding its ground stubbornly following a considerable "breakaway gap" for a new 52-week high on 5/05/14. Reported earnings +22% on +20% sales revenues for the Mar '14 quarter. Prior mid-day reports repeatedly cautioned members - "Consecutive quarterly comparisons just below the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria). A downturn in FY '09 earnings is a flaw with respect to the A criteria of the investment system."

Perched at its 52-week high and extended from any sound base with today's gain adding to a spurt of gains backed by above average volume. Reported earnings +48% on +31% sales revenues for the Mar '14 quarter, its 3rd consecutive quarterly comparison with earnings above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria), Annual earnings (A criteria) history has also been strong. Low-priced stocks are discouraged from consideration unless all key criteria are solidly satisfied. Uncertain action in the broader market (M criteria) is also cause for concern.

Pulling back today for a 4th consecutive loss, retreating from its 52-week and all-time highs hit with recent gains backed by great volume conviction. Fundamental concerns remain after reporting earnings +22% on +7% sales revenues for the Mar '14 quarter. Made gradual progress since last noted in the 1/15/13 mid-day report - "Earnings growth in quarterly comparisons has been below the +25% minimum guideline, short of the C criteria. Its annual earnings (A criteria) history has been good. The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 986 in Mar '12 to 1,024 in Sep '12, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria."

Perched at 52-week and multi-year highs. Through the Mar '14 quarter earnings increases have been sub par, and fundamental concerns remain. Prior mid-day reports repeatedly noted - "Quarterly earnings growth has been below the +25% minimum earnings guideline. This India-based financial institution has shown sub par sales revenues increases. It survived but failed to impress since dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 1/17/08."

Quarterly earnings increases through Mar '14 have been strong and above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). Up and down annual earnings (A criteria) history is a fundamental flaw. Consolidtaing near its 50 DMA line and within striking distance of its 52-week high.
