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

of experts.

G - Previously featured in
this report as yellow and

G - Touched another new all-time high today and its color code is changed to green after rising above its "max buy" level with volume-driven gains. Reported earnings +57% on +14% sales revenues for the Jun '19 quarter, continuing its strong earnings track record. Big gain 7/23/19 and strong close above the pivot point was backed by 11 times average volume triggered a technical buy signal. Prior highs in the $17 area define initial support above its 50 DMA line ($15.72).

Y - Color code is changed to yellow after gapping up above its 50 DMA line ($103.95) helping its outlook improve. Touched a new high earlier with today's big volume-driven gain, and a strong close above the pivot point may clinch a convincing new (or add-on) technical buy signal. Reported earnings +22% on +12% sales revenues for the Jun '19 quarter, slightly under the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria), raising fundamental concerns.

Color code was changed to green after rallying back above its "max buy" level and hitting a new all-time high today. The 50 DMA line ($131.68) and prior low ($123.43 on 6/25/19) define important near-term support to watch on pullbacks.

Most Recent Note for AMZN - 7/26/2019 12:08:40 PM
Gapped down today after it reported earnings +3% on +20% sales revenues for the Jun '19 quarter, well below the +25% minimum earnings guideline. In recent weeks it quietly consolidated above its 50 DMA line and wedged higher with gains lacking great volume conviction. Mid-day reports in recent months repeatedly cautioned members - "Earnings increases in the 6 latest quarterly comparisons through Mar '19 were very strong, well above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). Up and down annual earnings (A criteria) history is not a great match with the fact-based investment system's fundamental guidelines."

Perched within striking distance of its 52-week and all-time highs, but pulling back toward its 50 DMA line with a volume-driven loss today. Reported earnings +113% on +9% sales revenues for the Jun '19 quarter versus the year ago period. Fundamental concerns remain due to sub par sales revenues growth, however, this Portland, OR based Apparel - Clothing Mfg firm's 3 latest quarterly earnings increases were above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). Annual earnings (A criteria) growth has been strong.

Hitting new 52-week and all-time highs with above average volume behind today's gap up and big volume-driven gain Reported earnings +9% on +6% sales revenues for the Jun '19 quarter.

Prior quarterly comparisons were not strong and steady above the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria).
