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.

Perched near its 52-week high today after solid volume-driven gains into new high territory on the 3 prior sessions. The 2 latest quarterly comparisons (Mar and Jun '11) show improving sales revenues and earnings increases, and it is due to report the September ended period's results on November 8th. Noted in the 10/20/11 mid-day report - "It survived but failed to impress since it was dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 10/02/08."

Extended from any sound base now after rallying from lows near $1 in January, steadily finding support near its 50 DMA line during its ascent. The Mar and Jun '11 quarterly comparisons showed improving sales revenues and earnings versus losses in the year-ago periods. Prior quarterly and annual earnings (C and A criteria) history has been below the guidelines of the fact-based investment system.

Most Recent Note for FIZZ - 10/25/2011 12:18:20 PM
Hit a new 52-week high on the prior session and pulling back today. It has recently been wedging higher without great volume conviction since rebounding above its 50 DMA line when noted in the 10/04/11 mid-day report - "Fundamentals are still sub par today. Quarterly sales revenues increases in the +1-6% range for the past 8 comparisons versus the year ago period are an indication there has not been great growth in demand for its products."

Most Recent Note for GNC - 10/25/2011 12:25:23 PM
Y - Nearly challenging its 52-week high after volume-driven gains helped it rally from a "double bottom" base pattern. Color code is changed to yellow with pivot point based on its 9/01/11 high. The prior session's gain with more than 4 times average volume triggered a technical buy signal. No resistance remains due to overhead supply. Strong quarterly and annual earnings history satisfies the C and A criteria.

Most Recent Note for HXL - 10/25/2011 12:37:31 PM
Touched a new 52-week high with today's 4th consecutive gain with ever-increasing volume, but it has erased most of the session's early gain. It is perched within close striking distance of its August 2007 all-time high with no overhead supply remaining to act as resistance. Reported earnings +70% on +19% sales revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 versus the year ago period. Prior mid-day reports noted - "Recent quarterly comparisons show strong earnings increases and sales revenues growth accelerating, but its annual earnings (A criteria) history has been up and down and below the fact-based investment system's guidelines."

Erratic earnings history. Its quarterly sales revenues and earnings improved in recent comparisons, yet they remain minuscule. It has been building an orderly base for the past few months with support being found near its 200 DMA line.

Lack of sales revenues growth is a concern even while earnings increases were strong in the Jun and Sep '11 quarterly comparisons versus the year ago periods. Annual earnings (A criteria) history has been up and down.

Most Recent Note for NUAN - 10/25/2011 12:52:06 PM
Earnings history is below the guidelines of the fact-based system. It priced a $600 million convertible debenture offering last week. Holding its ground today after gap up gains with above average volume for 2 consecutive sessions drove it to new 52-week highs. It is unhindered by resistance after clearing all overhead supply with its impressive rebound. Failed to make progress then badly slumped and violated its 50 and 200 DMA lines with damaging volume-driven losses since noted in the 5/17/11 mid-day report - "It survived but failed to impress since last noted when weak action prompted it to be dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 12/12/07."

This MLP hit a new 52-week high then reversed into the red when noted on the prior session, and it is inching lower today. It rebounded from below both moving averages since noted in the 9/06/11 mid-day report - "Quarterly and annual earnings growth (C and A criteria) have been below the fact-based investment system's guidelines."

It has rebounded within -7.5% of its 52-week and all-time highs after a deep consolidation below its 50 and 200 DMA lines since it was last noted in the 7/07/11 mid-day report. Its annual earnings (A criteria) history has not been strong and steady, yet the 3 latest quarterly earnings increases above the +25% guideline (Mar, Jun, Sep '11) satisfied the C criteria. It survived but failed to impress since it was dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 9/17/08.
