Most Recent Note for AIR - 7/11/2011 12:08:03 PM Perched at its 52-week high following a streak of consecutive gains with above average volume.

Most Recent Note for BWLD - 7/11/2011 12:10:59 PM Pulling back further today, it touched new all-time highs last week and then reversed into the red. With a streak of volume-driven gains it recently rose from another base-on-base type pattern, and prior mid-day reports noted - "Technically broke out on 4/14/11 from a base-on-base pattern. No overhead supply exists to act as resistance. The company has a strong annual earnings history (A criteria). The C criteria has not been well satisfied by +25% earnings increases in quarterly comparisons. Blue triangles beside the quarterly earnings figure in at least the past 8 comparisons indicate pre-tax, non-recurring items were included (where possible, such items are normally removed to provide data better suited for comparison). The restaurant operator survived but failed to impress as it went through several long and very deep corrections since it was dropped from the CANSLIM.net Featured Stocks List on 8/15/2007."

Most Recent Note for EBAY - 7/11/2011 12:22:14 PM Volume-driven gains in recent weeks helped it rebound near its 52-week high from a slump under its 200 DMA line occurring since last noted in the 5/10/11 mid-day report - "Sales revenues and earnings have shown increases below the fact-based system guidelines in quarterly comparisons versus the year ago period.

Most Recent Note for ESL - 7/11/2011 12:23:41 PM Volume-driven gain today for another new 52-week high after a streak of gains on near average volume. Recent quarterly comparisons show slight sales revenues acceleration and better earnings increases, but a downturn in FY '09 earnings is a flaw concerning the A criteria of the fact-based investment system. Prior mid-day reports noted - "Sales revenues and earnings history make the fundamentals questionable for this aerospace/defense firm."

Most Recent Note for HELE - 7/11/2011 12:28:51 PM Pulling back from its new 52-week high hit last week after 8 consecutive gains on ever-increasing volume. Prior mid-day reports noted - "Technically it broke out on 5/10/11 and faces no resistance due to overhead supply. Found support near its 50 DMA line during its recent consolidation.

Most Recent Note for JCS - 7/11/2011 12:32:51 PM Quarterly sales revenues and earning growth has been strong but its annual earnings (A criteria) history has been erratic. Despite the fundamental concerns, its bullish streak of 7 consecutive gains helped it hit a new 52-week high today.

Most Recent Note for MON - 7/11/2011 12:35:25 PM Hovering within close striking distance of its 52-week high today. Stubbornly holding its ground since last noted on 7/06/11 after 6 consecutive volume-driven gains while rising from support at its long-term 200 DMA line - "Earnings history has been erratic and below the fact-based system's guidelines. Ownership by top-rated funds fell from 2,411 in Jun '10 to 2,203 as of Mar '11. This large (534.7 million shares outstanding) agricultural firm survived but failed to impress since long ago noted in the 6/03/08 mid-day report."

Most Recent Note for NFLX - 7/11/2011 12:37:20 PM This well-known online movie services firm touched new all-time highs today and then reversed into the red. Extended after rallying from a riskier "late-stage" consolidation shorter than the minimum length for a sound new base pattern. Its 50 DMA line and prior highs acted as support. It has maintained high ranks and its earnings history still satisfies the C and A criteria. Choppy action has made it challenging to make a proper entry since NFLX was previously dropped from the Featured Stocks page on 3/03/11, yet it has made impressive progress.

Most Recent Note for OZRK - 7/11/2011 12:43:42 PM Pulling back for a 3rd consecutive session since a negative reversal on 7/07/11 after hitting a new 52-week high.

Most Recent Note for PSMT - 7/11/2011 12:47:53 PM Hovering near its 52-week high today, consolidating after an impressive spurt of volume-driven gains.
