Abruptly retreating from its 52-week high hit last week. Faces no overhead supply to act as resistance. Reported earnings +26% on +7% sales revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 versus the year ago period. Fundamental concerns remain. Last noted in the 10/01/12 mid-day report - "Earnings increases improved in recent quarters, but sales revenues increases have been below guidelines and its annual earnings (A criteria) history has been up and down."

Consolidating near previously stubborn resistance in the $51 area with little resistance remaining due to overhead supply. Reported earnings +11% on +44% sales revenues for the Jun '13 period, well below the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria). Found support near its 50 DMA line during its consolidation since noted in the 5/15/13 mid-day report with caution - "Completed a new Public Offering on 5/09/13, and an earlier one was completed on 6/13/12. Shares split 3/2 effective 2/25/13. Reported earnings +24% on +31% sales revenues for the Mar '13 quarter. Sequential deceleration in sales revenues and earnings increases in quarterly comparisons was noted as cause for concern. Found support at its 200 DMA line during its consolidation since noted in the 2/13/13 mid-day report with caution - 'Annual earnings (A criteria) history has not been strong and steady, but improved greatly following losses in FY '06-08.'"

Still holding its ground in a tight trading range following a streak of 3 consecutive and considerable volume-driven gains. Following its technical breakout, it appeared in the 8/05/13 mid-day report noted with caution - "Reported earnings +78% on +27% sales revenues for the Jun '13 quarter, marking its 3rd consecutive quarter with earnings above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). However, blue triangles beside the quarterly and annual earnings figures within the datagraphs used by CANSLIM.net experts indicate pre-tax, non-recurring items were included (where possible, such items are normally removed to provide data better suited for comparison). EGOV found support at its 200 DMA line during its consolidation while building a cup-with-handle base since last noted in the 4/01/13 mid-day report with caution - No resistance remains due to overhead supply. Quarterly and annual earnings (C and A criteria) history has not been strong and steady, and it is fundamentally not a good match with the guidelines of the fact-based investment system.'"

Found support near its 50 DMA line recently. Shares split 3:2 effective 6/20/13. This maker of bakery products has flashed a few "negative reversals" near the $24 area which acted as stubborn resistance in recent months. Reported earnings +71% on +32% sales revenues for the Jun '13 quarter, marking its 3rd consecutive quarterly comparison with earnings above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria) and accelerating sales revenues growth. Last noted in the 7/08/13 mid-day report with caution - "Reported stronger sales revenues and earnings increases in the Dec '12 and Mar '13 quarters, but prior quarterly comparisons and its annual earnings (A criteria) history is not a match with the fact-based investment system's fundamental guidelines."

Earnings were above the +25% minimum guideline in the 4 latest quarterly comparisons through Jun '13 satisfying the C criteria. Hitting a new 52-week high today. Technically broke out on 7/16/13 clearing a long consolidation. Last noted in the 7/17/13 mid-day report with caution- "A downturn in FY '09 and FY '10 is a flaw with respect to the A criteria."

Found support near its 50 DMA line and then rallied to new high territory with volume-driven gains since noted in the 5/07/13 mid-day report with caution - "Earnings history is not a match with the fact-based investment system's guidelines (C criteria) and sub par sales revenues growth indicates no great demand for any new (N criteria) products or services."

Hitting yet another new high today. Held its ground in a tight range since its technical breakout with heavy volume on 8/01/13 was followed by a big gap gain, quickly getting extended from prior highs. In 3 recent mid-day reports in August it was noted - "Patient investors may watch for a secondary buy point or new base to develop in the weeks ahead. Rebounded above its 50 DMA line in recent weeks following a deeper consolidation since dropped from the Featured Stocks list when noted on 5/28/13. Reported earnings +138% on +59% sales revenues for the Jun '13 quarter, continuing its strong earnings history satisfying the C and A criteria."

Found support at its 50 DMA line on the latest pullback. Reported earnings +4% on +13% sales revenues for the Jun '13 quarter, continuing its streak of sub par earnings comparisons. Its annual earnings (A criteria) history is below guidelines of the fact-based system. Fundamentals deteriorated after it was dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 12/14/2007. It subsequently fell from $23.15 to as low as $2.30. Its impressive rebound makes it an interesting turnaround story.

Making its 3rd consecutive mid-day report appearance, today it is perched at its 52-week high after considerable volume-driven gap up gains noted in the 2 prior mid-day reports. Undercut its 50 DMA line and prior highs during a deep "V" shaped consolidation, not a sound base, since noted in the 5/30/13 mid-day report with caution - "This Chinese provider of investment products reported earnings +217% on +94% sales revenues for the Mar '13 quarter. The low-priced shares undercut the 50 DMA line during its consolidation then rebounded and rallied impressively since noted in the 2/28/13 mid-day report with caution - 'Additional resistance remains due to overhead supply. Reported strong sales revenues and earnings increases in the Sep and Dec '12 quarters, but its prior earnings history is not a match with the fact-based investment system's guidelines.'"
