Symbol - Exchange - Industry Group Company Name	Last	Chg	Day High	52 WK Hi	% From Hi	Volume % DAV	DAV

Rallied above its 50 DMA line and found support at that important short-term average while consolidating since last noted in the 8/21/11 mid-day report - "Rallying from support at its 200 DMA line toward its its 50 DMA line which may now act as resistance. This soap maker has been considered a 'safe haven' by certain investors. Its earnings and sales growth history is below guidelines and has been previously noted as 'lackluster'."

Most Recent Note for CHL - 9/27/2011 1:22:12 PM Last noted in the 8/22/11 mid-day report - "Gapped up today and traded above its July high.

Large supply of 4 billion shares outstanding would typically make a stock unlikely to be a big mover unless there was immense institutional buying demand."

Most Recent Note for CMS - 9/27/2011 1:23:01 PM The 9/26/11 mid-day report noted -"Consolidating after abruptly retreating to its 50 DMA line following a short-lived rally to a new 52-week high last week. Sales revenues show minimal growth and its quarterly earnings were only better than the +25% guideline in 1 of the past 3 quarterly comparisons versus the year ago periods."

Most Recent Note for CPHD - 9/27/2011 1:26:53 PM Perched -0.5% off its high on the right side of a 9-week cup shaped consolidation since its considerable gap up on 7/22/11 for a new 52-week high. Reported earnings +120% on +35% sales revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 versus the year ago period. Accelerating sales revenues growth and great earnings improvement in recent quarterly comparisons following years of operating losses (not strong for the A criteria). Earnings estimates call for FY '11 earnings down considerably from FY '10, adding to fundamental concerns.

As noted previous mid-day report appearances in May '10 and Apr '09, still its sales revenues and earnings growth history below guidelines.'"

Most Recent Note for HLF - 9/27/2011 1:44:10 PM Gapped up today after rising with above average volume on the prior session from below its 50 DMA line, climbing toward its all-time high. The prior high was hit when last noted in the 8/02/11 mid-day report - "Reported earnings +35% on +28% sales revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 versus the year ago period. Stubbornly held its ground after previously noted volume-driven gains including an earlier "breakaway gap" on 2/23/11 with heavy volume (5 times average daily). It has rebounded impressively from its Bear Market lows to all-time highs, having risen 10-fold, but this high-ranked Cosmetics / Personal Care group leader had a downward turn in FY '09 annual earnings history (flaw in respect to A criteria)."

It found prompt support at its 200 DMA line after it was dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 8/08/11. Its choppy action is not a sound base pattern."
