Pulled back from its all-time high and found support in recent weeks near its 50 DMA line (19.97). Bullish action came as it reported earnings +113% on +43% sales revenues for the Jun '19 quarter.

Annual earnings (A criteria) history is not a match with the fact-based investment system's guidelines.
