Most Recent Note - 9/12/2018 12:16:01 PM Y - Rallying near prior highs with today's 3rd consecutive gain backed by above average volume. Highlighted in yellow with new pivot point cited based on its 9/11/17 high plus 10 cents in the 9/06/18 mid-day report, it challenged its high with a big gain backed by +111% above average volume, but met resistance. Subsequent gains above the pivot point for a a new high (N criteria) backed by at least +40% above average volume may trigger a proper technical buy signal.

Annual earnings (A criteria) growth has been strong after a downturn in FY '14. Small supply of only 11.2 million shares (S criteria) in the public float can contribute to greater volatility. >>> The latest Featured Stock Update with an annotated graph appeared on 9/6/2018.
