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.

Gapped up today, rallying above its 50 DMA toward its 52-week high. It is clear of resistance due to overhead supply now but endured distributional pressure since noted in the 7/02/10 mid-day report - "rising from an ascending base type of pattern. Stock split 3:2 effective on 6/25/10 while it found great support near its 50 DMA line. It has a good annual earnings history and quarterly earnings increases above the +25% meet the investment system's guidelines, however sales revenues have shown just steady increases in the +12-13% range."

Hit a new all-time high today.

Most Recent Note for USNA - 8/19/2010 12:42:26 PM
Enduring distributional pressure this week while churning near its 52-week high after recent volume-driven gains. It is among several high-ranked leaders (L criteria) in the Cosmetics/Personal Care group appearing in recent mid-day reports. This network marketer of dietary supplements, health foods, and skin care products quarter ending June 30, 2010 showed sales revenues up +12% and earnings per share up +21% versus the year ago period. Noted in recent mid-day reports - "Showing recent improvement, but fundamentally the C and A criteria are not satisfied. Current earnings per share should be up +25% or more and in the 3 or 4 latest comparisons versus the year earlier, and ideally growth should be accelerating in recent quarters. Quarterly sales should also be up +25% or more or accelerating over prior quarters."
