NHTC - NASDAQ - Cosmetics/Personal Care Natural Health Trends Corp	$39.64	-2.98 -7.00%	$44.13	$43.40	-8.67%	544,150 128.95%	422,000
Most Recent Note for NHTC - 6/18/2015 1:07:39 PM Hit yet another new 52-week high today but then reversed into the red following an impressive streak of 8 consecutive gains. The intra-day pullback of more than -10% from the session high is indicative of distributional pressure, yet it also gives it the look of an advanced "ascending base". That pattern is marked by 3 pullbacks in the 10-20% range in recent months following an earlier technical breakout. Subsequent volume-driven gains into new high territory may present a valid entry point for advanced traders with strict discipline. There are 10 top-rated funds reportedly owning an interest through Mar '15, and it has only 7.74 million shares (S criteria) in the public float. During a deep 7-month consolidation its 200 DMA line acted as support. Quarterly comparisons through Mar '15 showed strong sales and earnings increases well above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria).
