Most Recent Note - 8/31/2017 1:36:59 PM Y - Color code is changed to yellow with new pivot point cited based on its 7/26/17 high while trying to rally from a 12-week "double bottom" base pattern. Gain backed by at least +40% above average volume and strong close above the pivot point may trigger a technical buy signal. Rebounding further above its 50 DMA line today, challenging prior highs with a 2nd consecutive big volume-driven gain. Very little resistance remains due to overhead supply. Recently reported +115% earnings on +59% sales revenues for the Jun '17 quarter, its 3rd consecutive strong quarter above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria), helping it better match with the fact-based investment system's fundamental guidelines. Annual earnings (A criteria) history has been strong. There are no Featured Stock Updates™ available for this stock at this time. You may request one by clicking the Request a New Note link below
