Symbol - Exchange - Industry Group Company Name	Last	Chg	Day High	52 WK Hi	% From Hi	Volume % DAV	DAV
CBM - NYSE - CHEMICALS - Specialty Chemicals Cambrex Corp	$6.34	+0.04 0.63%	$6.43	$6.78	-6.49%	89,985 68.53%	131,300
Most Recent Note for CBM - 11/18/2011 12:14:22 PM Recently inching toward its 52-week high with small gains backed by above average volume. Sales revenues increases showed modest acceleration in recent quarterly comparisons while earnings improved. Annual earnings (A criteria) history has not been strong and steady. Low-priced stocks are discouraged from consideration as buy candidates under the fact-based system unless all key criteria are solidly satisfied.

CRMT - NASDAQ - SPECIALTY RETAIL - Auto Dealerships Americas Car-Mart Inc	$35.80	+3.30 10.14%	$35.99	$37.50	-4.54%	92,795 193.73%	47,900
Most Recent Note for CRMT - 11/18/2011 12:30:30 PM Considerable gain today, clearing a prior chart high and rallying to within close striking distance of its 52-week high. Increasing ownership by top-rated funds is an encouraging sign (I criteria). Recent quarters showed modest sales revnues increases and earnings improvement mostly below the +25% guideline. Annual earnings (A criteria) history has been good in recent years, however that is while FY '08 and '10 earnings figures include blue triangles beside the numbers via the data provider used by our experts which indicates pre-tax, non-recurring items were included (where possible, such items are normally removed to provide data better suited for comparison).

Most Recent Note for ENB - 11/18/2011 12:31:44 PM Hit a new 52-week and all-time high today with its second consecutive volume-driven gain. Earnings and sales history are below fact-based investment system's guidelines for this Canadian Utility -Gas Distribution firm.

FIO - NYSE - cTechnical & System Software Fusion-Io Inc	$39.61	-0.73 -1.81%	$41.50	$41.74	-5.10%	1,475,326 176.86%	834,200
Most Recent Note for FIO - 11/18/2011 12:37:22 PM Hovering at its 52-week high today after a spurt of 5 consecutive gains backed by above average volume. No overhead supply is there to hinder its progress. Recent price/volume action has been erratic and has the look of a sloppy "ascending base" pattern. Heavy volume coupled with a lack of meaningful price progress above prior highs this week hints that it has been encountering distributional pressure while rising. Limited earnings track record since its $19 IPO on 6/19/11.

Most Recent Note for HIBB - 11/18/2011 12:43:53 PM Reversed into the red and trading near the session low today after gapping up and spiking to a new 52-week high for a considerable gain. Reported earnings +34% on +11% sales revenues for the quarter ended October 31, 2011 versus the year ago period. Steadily rallied since the 11/22/10 mid-day report noted the 11/19/10 "breakaway gap" and then observed - "Annual earnings (A criteria) history is below guidelines of the fact-based investment system. Sales revenues increases have been in the +13-17% range while earnings increases have been above the +25% guideline in the 4 latest quarterly comparisons (good C criteria) versus the year ago periods."

HSTM - NASDAQ - INTERNET - Internet Service Providers Healthstream Inc	$16.82	+0.09 0.54%	$17.28	$17.28	-2.66%	861,175 741.75%	116,100
Most Recent Note for HSTM - 11/18/2011 12:49:12 PM Today's 3rd consecutive gain backed by above average volume helped it hit a new 52-week high. Today it priced the previously announced new Public Offering of 3.3 million shares at $16.25. Held its ground and made recent progress above prior highs after the previously noted 10/21/11 gap up from a cup-with-handle type base. Earnings improved by more than +25% in recent quarterly comparisons (Mar, Jun, Sep '11) satisfying the C criteria, but its annual (A criteria) earnings history included a downturn in FY '10, a flaw with respect to the fact-based investment system's guidelines.

KOG - NYSE - Oil&Gas-U S Expl&Prod Kodiak Oil & Gas Corp	$7.81	-0.07 -0.89%	$8.10	$8.50	-8.12%	23,243,283 397.40%	5,848,800
Most Recent Note for KOG - 11/18/2011 12:53:44 PM Perched near its 52-week high and churning above average volume for a 4th consecutive session, today it increased the previously noted Public Offering to 42 million (from 37.5 million) shares at $7.75 per share. Prior mid-day reports noted - "The Jun and Sep '11 quarterly comparisons showed very impressive sales revenues and earnings increases versus the year ago period(s). Prior history was not a good match with the investment system's guidelines. This low-priced firm in the Oil & Gas - US Exploration/Production industry has recently been wedging up near its prior highs in the $7-8 area without great volume conviction. Heavier volume was behind gains that helped it rebound from below its 50 and 200 DMA lines."
