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.

G - Gapped up today and hit a new all-time high with another gain backed by above average volume. Gains from its previously identified base were not substantial enough for its 3 very tight weekly closes to be considered an advanced "3-weeks tight" type pattern being cleared now, yet it may go on to produce more climactic gains. The nearest support is prior highs and its 50 DMA line in the $88-90 area.

Gapped up today and hit a new 52-week high and new multi-year high. Recently noted in the 10/01/10 mid-day report as it challenged old highs in the $46 area that defines a stubborn resistance level in the past. Quarterly results showed stronger sales and earnings increases in Mar, Jun, and Sept '10 after a downward turn and negative comparisons in recent years (bad A criteria).

Most Recent Note for AMZN - 10/22/2010 12:35:23 PM
Up with heavy volume today for a second consecutive new high. Earnings were up +13% on +39% sales revenues in the latest quarter ended September 30, 2010, which is a new flaw with respect to the C criteria. Technically there is no resistance remaining due to overhead supply. Based on weak action it was dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 5/06/10, and after a subsequent trip below its 200 DMA line it recently rallied to new all-time highs. AMZN was featured in the 4/23/10 mid-day report (read here) while it was encountering distributional pressure following strong results for the March 31, 2010 quarter."

Hovering near all-time highs this week. It made steady progress since noted in June-July mid-day reports - "This Peru-based Bank has a good annual earnings (the A criteria) history, however recent quarterly sales revenues comparisons have been essentially flat and earnings growth has decelerated to below the fact-based investment system's guidelines. Based on weak technical action it was removed from the Featured Stocks list on 7/08/08. Noted in several June 2010 mid-day reports that it rebounded impressively from deep lows in the $30 area."

Considerable gains this week with heavy volume helped it hit new 52-week highs and clear stubborn resistance. Recent mid-day reports noted - "It found support near its 200 DMA line since it was last noted in the 4/30/10 mid-day report. Once again, no overhead supply remains to act as resistance, but the $22 area acted as a resistance level in the past. This Singapore-based maker of diesel engines for trucks and busses in China also went through a deep correction since noted in the mid-day report on 1/12/10. - 'Up and down annual earnings (A criteria) leaves fundamental concerns.'"

Most Recent Note for DORM - 10/22/2010 12:50:30 PM
Pulling back from its 52-week high hit on the prior session. It steadily rose after recent mid-day reports noted - "Extended from prior chart highs in the $25-26 area. It rallied from an inverse-head-and-shoulders type pattern since finding support at its 200 DMA following the previously noted 'breakaway gap' on 4/27/10. Leadership in the Auto/Truck - Replacement Parts group (L criteria) is a reassuring sign. The C criteria is satisfied as recent quarterly comparisons show earnings increases above the +25% guideline on +15%-20% better sales versus the year ago period. Its up and down annual earnings history (A criteria) is a concern."

Colombian Oil and Gas - Integrated firm reported strong sales and earnings increases for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 versus the year earlier period. Recent quarterly comparisons have shown great improvement, but its prior quarterly and annual earnings history has been below guidelines of the fact-based system."

Finally hitting new 52-week highs this week while posting consecutive gains backed by heavy volume. It slumped below its 200 DMA since the "negative reversal" on 4/30/10 was noted in the 5/04/10 mid-day report and we then observed - "Its erratic quarterly and annual sales and earnings history fall short of the investment system's guidelines."

Considerable gain today following a solid report for the quarter ended September 30, 2010, challenging its 52-week high after a short consolidation above its 50 DMA line. This Redwood City, CA-based Computer Software - Database firm gapped up on 7/23/10 and was noted in prior mid-day reports - "Technically its considerable gain is a 'breakaway gap' following a choppy 4-month basing period. Fundamentally, it showed more impressive acceleration in its sales revenues and earnings increases for the quarter ended June 30, 2010. Prior quarterly earnings and sales increases have been borderline and below the minimum guidelines leaving fundamental concerns, yet it has maintained a steady annual earnings (A criteria) history."

Noted in recent mid-day reports - "Quarterly sales revenues and earnings are below the investment system guidelines. Based on weak action it was dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 9/15/08, soon after featured in the September 2008 issue of CANSLIM.net News (see here).

Wedging to another new all-time high today without great volume conviction. Since its "breakaway gap" on 8/04/10 it has not built an orderly new base and afforded disciplined investors ideal buy points under the investment system guidelines. It was noted in several August mid-day reports - "No overhead supply remains to act as resistance after clearing its deep 3-month consolidation. Based on weak action it was dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 5/07/10 and subsequently fell from $225 to $173 before beginning its impressive rebound."

Most Recent Note for PNRA - 10/22/2010 1:06:11 PM
Gain today for a new 52-week high while on track for a 10th consecutive weekly gain. Its annual earnings results showed a small downturn in '07, which is a minor flaw concerning the A criteria which calls for 3-5 years of steady earnings growth. Quarterly sales and earnings increases are not solidly meeting the guidelines with respect to the C criteria, while certainly "above average" as its 93 Earnings Per Share (EPS) rank currently suggests. Top-rated funds owning an interest decreased from 200 in Mar '09 to 155 in Sep '10, which is not good news concerning the I criteria. The stock is somewhat heavily owned (percentage-wise) by funds relative to its management's small 6% reported ownership.

Considerable gap up gain today, blasting above its 2007 all-time high ($52) following another strong earnings report showing impressive acceleration. Noted in recent September - October mid-day reports - "Extended from any sound base after rallying from support above its 50 DMA line. The San Francisco, CA-based firm in the Computer-Networking industry is a strong turn-around story, but the downward turn in FY '08 hurts its annual earnings (A criteria) track record."
