Off the session's earlier highs, it gapped up today hitting a new 52-week high following a late stage 8-week "double bottom" base pattern. Reported earnings +31% on +9% sales revenues for the quarter ended July 31, 2012 versus the year ago period. Current earnings per share have been up +25% or more in 3 of the past 4 comparisons, which is good concerning the C criteria. However, quarterly sales revenues increases in the +8-9% are below the robust growth guidelines of the investment system, while sales should be up +18-25% or more or showing great acceleration over prior quarters.

Inching to another new 52-week and multi-year high today with above average volume behind its 5th consecutive gain. After last week's spurt of gains backed by very heavy above average volume no overhead supply remains to act as resistance. Reported greatly improved earnings with sales revenues up +13% in the Jun '12 quarter. Recently said it intended to offer $400 mln of Senior Notes. Following years of losses it reported profits in FY '10 and FY '11, however the investment system guidelines (A criteria) call for 3-5 years of strong and steady earnings growth. It has a large supply of 3.8 billion shares outstanding. Low-priced stocks are discouraged from consideration under the fact-based investment system.

Prior mid-day reports repeatedly noted - "Fundamentals are still not a match with the fact-based investment system's guidelines. Reported earnings +15% on +11% sales revenues for the Jun '12 quarter. Survived but failed to impress since noted in the 8/08/11 mid-day report - 'Gapped down today, pulling back from its 52-week high hit last week. Annual earnings (A criteria) history has been good. The 2 latest quarterly comparisons versus the year ago period showed sales revenues increases in the +14-17% range with earnings per share increases in the +25-44% range. Ownership by top-rated funds fell from 124 in Dec '10 to 116 in Jun '11, whereas increasing institutional interest (I criteria) is clearly desired.'"
