Most Recent Note for ABCB - 10/31/2014 11:54:44 AM
Hitting new 52-week highs with today's 7th consecutive gain. Recent quarterly comparisons through Sep '14 show accelerating sales revenues growth and earnings increases above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria) making it a better match with the fact-based investment system's guidelines. However, blue triangles beside the annual earnings figures FY '09 to '13 within the datagraphs used by CANSLIM.net experts indicate pre-tax, non-recurring items were included (where possible, such items are normally removed to provide data better suited for comparison).
It survived but failed to impress since 12/02/06 when it was dropped from the Featured Stocks list.

Rebounding near its 52-week high with today's gap up and considerable volume-driven gain. Found support near its 50 DMA line and prior highs in the $34-36 area during its consolidation since last noted in the 10/16/14 mid-day report with caution.

Fundamentals have not been a match with the fact-based investment system since dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 8/21/13."
