Violating its 50 DMA line today raising concerns while slumping near prior lows in the $61 area with a gap down and damaging volume-driven loss. Abruptly retreating from its 52-week high and slumping back into the previously noted 9-week flat base. Due to report Tuesday, November 5, 2013, after the close financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2013. Noted in prior mid-day reports with caution - "Reported earnings +22% on +27% sales revenues for the Jun '13 quarter. Quarterly earnings increases in the prior 2 comparisons were above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). It has earned high ranks, however a downturn in its FY '11 earnings was previously noted as a flaw with respect to the A criteria. The Finance - Savings & Loan industry currently has a mediocre 52 Group Relative Strength Rating, however some Finance firms are providing leadership. There are 11.9 million shares reportedly in the publicly traded float, and the small supply (S criteria) of shares can contribute to greater price volatility upon any institutional buying or selling."
