Most Recent Note - 10/15/2013 12:34:09 PM Y - Hitting a new 52-week high with today's 5th consecutive gain clearing prior highs. New pivot point is cited based on the right side of its deep V-shaped cup with handle pattern. Prior mid-day reports cautioned - "Reported earnings +142% on +132% sales revenues for the second quarter of 2013. Strong sales and earnings acceleration helped this Chinese provider of investment products to better match the fact-based investment system's fundamental guidelines. Recently rallied from a deep "V" shaped consolidation, not a sound base, and prior highs in the $14 area may now act as support."

Most Recent Note for SYNA - 10/15/2013 12:48:03 PM Hitting a new 52-week high with another considerable volume-driven gain. On track for its 6th consecutive weekly gain.

After a streak of negative quarterly sales revenues and earnings comparisons it showed great improvements in the Mar and Jun '13 quarters. Its small supply of 32.3 million shares (the S criteria) outstanding could contribute to especially great volatility in the event of institutional accumulation or distribution. The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 292 in Dec '12 to 389 in Jun '13, which is good news concerning the I criteria.

Most Recent Note for TRIP - 10/15/2013 12:48:56 PM Rebounded near its 50 DMA line after violating it with volume-driven losses last week.

Fundamentals remain a concern, although it now has 2 quarters with earnings above the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria) of the fact-based investment system."

Most Recent Note for YY - 10/15/2013 12:54:22 PM Touched a new 52-week high today and no resistance remains due to overhead supply.
