Y - Color code is changed to yellow with new pivot point cited based on its 9/14/15 high plus 10 cents. Recently rebounding near its 52-week high, however, a volume-driven gain above the pivot point is still needed to trigger a technical buy signal. The Dec '15, Mar and Jun '16 quarters showed earnings increases above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). Went through a deep consolidation below its 200 DMA line and rebounded since dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 10/16/15.
