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

Most Recent Note for AMOT - 5/23/2014 12:03:56 PM
Perched within striking distance of its 52-week high after a recent spurt of volume-driven gains. The 2 most recent quarters through Mar '14 showed better sales and earnings increases versus the year earlier. Prior quarterly comparisons and annual earnings (A criteria) growth have not been strong and steady so it is fundamentally below guidelines of the fact-based investment system.

Hitting another new 52-week high with today's 2nd consecutive volume-driven gain. Found support near its 50 DMA line during its recent consolidation. Prior mid-day reports cautioned members - "Reported earnings +24% on +4% sales revenues for the Mar '14 quarter and fundamental concerns remain. Earnings increases have been below the +25% minimum necessary to satisfy the C criteria. Waning annual earnings increases in FY '10 and '11 were noted as a flaw concerning the A criteria."

Rebounding near its 50 DMA line with today's 3rd consecutive gain. Recent quarterly comparisons through Mar '14 show improving sales revenues growth and greatly improved earnings above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). Prior mid-day reports cautioned members - "Its up and down annual earnings history (A criteria) is not a match with the fact-based investment system's guidelines."

Rebounding toward its 50 DMA line with today's 5th consecutive gain. Noted with caution in the 4/04/14 mid-day report when perched near its 52-week high -"Quarterly and annual earnings history (C and A criteria) is not a match with the fact-based investment system's guidelines."

Most Recent Note for FL - 5/23/2014 12:09:51 PM
Challenging its 52-week high with today's 2nd consecutive gain backed by above average volume. Found support above its 50 DMA line during its consolidation following a considerable "breakaway gap" on 3/07/14. Prior mid-day report repeatedly cautioned members - "Reported earnings +28% on +5% sales revenues for the quarter ended Jan 31, 2014 versus the year ago period. Prior quarterly results showed sub par earnings increases (C criteria) and sales revenues growth. Annual earnings (A criteria) history has been improving steadily since a downturn in FY '10."

Hitting another new 52-week high with above average volume behind today's 3rd consecutive gain. Prior mid-day reports repeatedly cautioned members - "Reported earnings +85% on +27% sales revenues for the Mar '14 quarter, but fundamental concerns remain. Prior quarterly and annual earnings (C and A criteria) history is not a match with the fact-based investment system's guidelines. Perched near its 52-week high. Low-priced stocks are discouraged from consideration unless all key criteria are solidly satisfied."
