Hitting a new 52-week high today, approaching its all-time high hit in 2012. Reported earnings +20% on +6% sales for the Jun '14 quarter and fundamental concerns remain. Noted with caution in prior mid-day reports - "Earnings sequentially decelerating and below the +25% minimum earnings guideline of the fact-based system. Companies currently on the 'Featured Stocks' list are the most ideal candidates fitting the fact-based investment system's guidelines before becoming too heavily owned by the institutional crowd."

Holding its ground near its 52-wee high since a considerable gap up on 6/27/14. Reported strong earnings and sales increases for the Jun '14 quarter but fundamental concerns remain. Last noted in the 12/17/12 mid-day report with caution - "Low-priced stocks are discouraged from consideration unless all key criteria are solidly satisfied.

Spiked to a new 52-week high with today's 4th consecutive gain. Found support near its 50 DMA line and above its 200 DMA line during its long and orderly consolidation. Reported earnings +33% on +5% sales revenues for the Jun '14 quarter and fundamental concerns remain. Prior mid-day reports repeatedly cautioned members - "The lack of sales revenues growth indicates no great demand for any new (N criteria) products or services. The 5 latest quarterly comparisons through Sep '13 showed earnings increases above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). Its up and down annual earnings (A criteria) history is cause for concern. It survived but failed to impress since dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 10/07/08."
