Y - Small gap up gain helped it touch a new 52-week high today. It found support above its 50 DMA line during its brief "square box" base formed since last noted. Color code is changed to yellow with pivot point cited based on its 8/01/12 high plus 10 cents. A volume-driven gain and strong close above its pivot point may trigger technical buy signal. Quarterly earnings increases have been above the +25% guideline (C criteria) and its annual earnings (A criteria) have been steadily improving since a downturn in FY '08.

Inching higher for a 9th consecutive gain and another new 52-week high today. Stubbornly held its ground and continued to rally since noted in the 7/26/12 mid-day report - "Technically, it gapped up from below its 50 DMA line for a considerable volume-driven gain today and touched a new 52-week high. Reported earnings +14% on +18% sales revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 versus the year ago period. Ownership by top-rated funds (I criteria) has generally been on the rise, however prior mid-day reports noted - 'Earnings history has been erratic. There are fundamental concerns due to pre-tax, non-recurring items included in the past 8 quarterly reports. This is indicated by blue triangles in the earnings per share box on the chart service used by CANSLIM.net experts.'"

Pulling back today following a considerable gap up and volume-driven gain for new 52-week and all-time highs on the prior session. Recent quarters through Jun '12 showed much better sales and earnings increases versus the year earlier. Prior quarterly comparisons and annual earnings (A criteria) growth have not been strong and steady, so it is fundamentally below guidelines of the fact-based investment system.

Holding its ground stubbornly and it hit another new 52-week high today while on track for a 9th consecutive gain backed by above average volume. Prior mid-day reports repeatedly noted - "The 3 latest quarterly comparisons through Jun '12 showed improved sales revenues growth and strong earnings increases above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria), but its annual earnings history has not been strong and steady. Low-priced stocks are discouraged from consideration under the fact-based system unless all key criteria are solidly satisfied."

Today's 3rd consecutive loss has it slumping under its 50 DMA line again. Reported earnings +10% on +13% sales revenues for the Jun '12 quarter, sequentially decelerating to below the fact-based investment system's guidelines (C criteria). A downturn in FY '09 was previously noted as a flaw concerning its annual earnings (A criteria) history, yet it had followed that up with strong increases in FY '10 and '11.
