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 - Reversed into the red after hitting a new all-time high today. Posted a solid gain on the prior session with above average volume and closed at the session high for a best-ever close. Bullish action came after it reported Jun '21 quarterly earnings +138% on +82% sales revenues versus the year-ago period, continuing its strong earnings track record. A new pivot point was cited based on its 6/09/21 high plus 10 cents. Subsequent gains and a close above the pivot point backed by at least +40% above average volume may trigger a new (or add-on) technical buy signal. The 50 DMA line ($36.43) defines important near-term support to watch on pullbacks.

Y - Color code is changed to yellow with pivot point cited based on its 4/06/21 high plus 10 cents. Wedging to new all-time highs with today's 3rd consecutive gain lacking great volume conviction.

Reported earnings +38% on +29% sales revenues for the Jun '21 quarter versus the year ago period.

Most Recent Note for AMD - 8/5/2021 12:40:17 PM
Retreating today after rallying to new all-time highs with 6 consecutive volume-driven gains, quickly getting extended from prior highs. Patient investors may watch for a new base or secondary buy point to possibly develop and be noted in the weeks ahead. It went through a choppy consolidation since dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 2/22/21. Its current Relative Strength rating of 90 is back above the 80+ minimum guideline for buy candidates. Fundamentals remain strong after it reported Jun '21 quarterly earnings +250 on +99% sales revenues versus the year ago period.
