Most Recent Note - 9/16/2011 12:12:38 PM Y - Approaching its 52-week high with today's 5th consecutive gain after finding support near its 50 DMA line and prior chart highs during its 8-week consolidation. Color code is changed to yellow with pivot point based on its 52-week high plus 10 cents. Volume-driven gains above its pivot point may trigger a technical buy signal, but disciplined investors will watch for fresh proof of heavy buying demand before taking action. Recently rallied after reporting very strong earnings +122% on +82% sales revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 versus the year ago period. Stellar earnings track record that solidly satisfies the C and A criteria. However, it is already heavily owned by the institutional crowd, and ownership by top-rated funds fell from 4,365 in Mar '11 to 4,347 in Jun '11. >>> The latest Featured Stock Update with an annotated graph appeared on 8/9/2010.

Most Recent Note - 9/16/2011 12:36:50 PM Y - Color code is changed to yellow with pivot point cited based on its 52-week high plus 10 cents. It is perched within close striking distance of previously stubborn resistance in the $62 area. Quarterly and annual earnings history has remained strong while it survived but failed to impress since it was dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 10/06/08. See the Featured Stock Update section of the 9/23/08 CANSLIM.net After Market Update for analysis and an annotated graph (read here). Disciplined investors may note that CELG did not confirm a proper technical buy signal after it was featured in the August 2008 CANSLIM.net News, whereas the detailed report's "Technical Analysis" area included the note - "Confirming gains to all-time highs with great volume conviction would be a nice reassurance that it is capable of a meaningful advance" (read here). >>> The latest Featured Stock Update with an annotated graph appeared on 9/23/2008.

Most Recent Note - 9/16/2011 12:53:22 PM Y - Reported earnings +53% on +32% sales revenues for the quarter ended July 31, 2011 versus the year ago period. Today's considerable "breakaway gap" with heavy volume cleared its pivot point and triggered a technical buy signal. Breakaway gaps are one exception where chasing a stock more than 5% above prior highs may be permitted, but risk increases when doing so that an ordinary pullback may prompt investors to sell per the system's selling rules. >>> The latest Featured Stock Update with an annotated graph appeared on 9/13/2011.
