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.

Y - Today's strongest
candidates
highlighted

of experts.

G - Previously featured in
this report as yellow and

Most Recent Note for AAPL - 9/13/2017 1:40:39 PM
Encountering distributional pressure while perched near its all-time high. Reported earnings +18% on +7% sales for the Jun '17 quarter, and prior quarterly comparisons were below the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria) of the fact-based system. Companies currently on the 'Featured Stocks' list are ideal candidates fitting the fact-based investment system's guidelines before becoming heavily owned by the institutional crowd.

Perched at its 52-week high, very extended from any sound base. Held its ground stubbornly following a streak of big volume-driven gains.

This Chinese Internet - Content firm has a new CEO as of 6/27/16. It completed a new Public Offering on 11/20/14 and went through a deep consolidation. Completed its $17 IPO on 12/11/13."

This China-based online retailer is rallying to new all-time highs with today's 5th consecutive gain, but it is extended from any sound base. Reported strong earnings increases in the Sep, Dec '16, Mar and Jun '17 quarters. Limited history is a concern and it has rallied considerably since its $10 IPO in May 2015.

Shares split 2-1 effective 2/20/15. Annual earnings history (A criteria) improved following a downturn for FY '09 and '10.

Hit a new 52-week high with today's 4th consecutive gain. Reported earnings +18% on +7% sales revenues for the Jun '17 quarter, and fundamental concerns remain. Earnings history is not a match with the fact-based investment system's guidelines. Low-priced stocks are discouraged from consideration unless all key criteria are solidly satisfied.

Hitting another new all-time high today while adding to a spurt of volume-driven gains. Found support at its 50 DMA line during its consolidation since last noted with caution in the 8/01/17 mid-day report. Reported earnings +21% on +8% sales revenues for the Jun '17 quarter, and fundamental concerns remain. Earnings history is not a match with the fact-based investment system's guidelines calling for quarterly comparisons above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). Sub par sales revenues growth rate is a concern along with its up and down annual earnings history (A criteria).

Stalled after a "negative reversal" when hitting a new high on 9/05/17, then slumped well below its 50 DMA line with volume-driven losses. Prior mid-day reports cautioned members - "Reported earnings +76% on +24% sales revenues for the Jun '17 quarter. Fundamental concerns remain because its prior quarterly and annual earnings history (C and A criteria) is not a match with the fact-based investment system's guidelines."
