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.

Most Recent Note for AUY - 8/25/2011 12:21:22 PM
Extended from any sound base, rallying today within -3.5% of the 52-week high hit when noted in the 8/22/11 mid-day report - "Wedged higher last week without great volume conviction following its prior volume-driven gains above stubborn resistance in the $13 area. Quarterly sales revenues and earnings increases in the 4 latest comparisons through June 30, 2011 were well above the +25% guideline satisfying the C criteria. The downturn in FY '09 earnings is a fundamental flaw concerning the A criteria. With respect to the I criteria, the number of top rated funds owning its shares fell from 911 in Mar '11 to 860 in Jun '11. It survived but failed to impress since 4/23/2008 when it was dropped from the Featured Stocks list and subsequently fell from $13 to $3 over the next 6 months. First it had traded up as much as +25.4% after it was first featured at $15.89 in the February 2008 CANSLIM.net News (read here)."

Most Recent Note for GOLD - 8/25/2011 12:21:53 PM
Pulling back today for a 3rd consecutive loss after spiking to a new all-time high on Monday. This UK-headquartered firm in the Mining - Gold/Silver/Gems group has tallied 9 consecutive weekly gains and has no overhead supply remaining to act as resistance. Prior mid-day reports repeatedly noted - "Sales revenues and earnings increases in the Mar '11 and Jun '11 quarterly comparisons have been much greater than the +25% minimum guideline following sub par Dec '10 quarterly results. Up and down annual earnings (A criteria) history is also a concern."

Gapped up today for a 4th consecutive gain and rallied above its 50 DMA line. It had slumped well below its 50 and 200 DMA lines during a deep consolidation since last noted in the 7/15/11 mid-day report - "Recent quarters showed improving sales revenues and earnings but a downturn in FY '09 earnings is a flaw with respect to the A criteria. It survived but failed to impress since weak technical action prompted it to be dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 1/17/08."
