Most Recent Note - 11/9/2018 1:07:13 PM Y - Abruptly reversing into the prior base with today's big loss. Finished strong after highlighted in yellow with pivot point cited based on its 9/14/18 high plus 10 cents in the 11/08/18 mid-day report. The big gain and strong close above the pivot point backed by +213% above average volume clinched a technical buy signal as it hit a new all-time high. Rallied straight up from the bottom of an 8-week base during which its 200 DMA line acted as support. Reported earnings +74% on +14% sales revenues for the Sep '18 quarter. Recent quarterly comparisons show strong earnings increases with strong sales revenues growth. Its small supply of only 52.6 million outstanding shares (S criteria) can contribute to greater price volatility in the event of institutional buying or selling. Annual earnings (A criteria) history has been strong after a small downturn in FY '15.

Its 50 DMA line ($53.26) and 200 DMA line ($51.52) define near-term support. Subsequent gains above the pivot point backed by more than +40% above average volume are needed to trigger a proper technical buy signal." >>> The latest Featured Stock Update with an annotated graph appeared on 11/5/2018.
