STMP - NASDAQ - Retail-Internet Stamps.com Inc	$84.40	+0.00 0.00%	$84.82	$85.36	-1.12%	550,572 267.27%	206,000
Most Recent Note for STMP - 8/10/2015 9:56:02 PM Held ground today after hitting a new 52-week high on the prior session with a gap up gain, promptly rebounding following a damaging loss and slump well below its 50 DMA line. Reported earnings +76% on +41% sales revenues for the Jun '15 quarter, above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). Volume and volatility often increase near earnings news.

TISI - NYSE - DIVERSIFIED SERVICES - Technical Services Team Inc	$46.49	+1.18 2.60%	$46.83	$47.55	-2.23%	112,934 161.33%	70,000
Most Recent Note for TISI - 8/10/2015 9:56:37 PM Challenging 52-week and multi-year highs with recent volume-driven gains. Reported earnings +22% on +13% sales revenues for the Jun '15 quarter, not strong and steady above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). Sales revenues growth has been sub par and a downturn in FY '10 earnings is a flaw with respect to the A criteria, so fundamentals are below guidelines of the fact-based system. It survived but failed to impress since dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 10/03/08.
