Hitting new 52-week highs with today's 2nd consecutive volume-driven gain. Reported earnings +7% on +18% sales revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 versus the year ago period. Prior quarterly comparisons showed stronger sales revenues and earnings increases which were waning. Annual earnings history (A criteria) is not a match with the models of past great winners identified using the fact-based investment system.

Pulling back today following a considerable gap up gain on the prior session for another new 52-week high. Prior highs define initial support to watch on pullbacks. Volume was heavy while recently rallying above previously stubborn resistance in the $34 area with 4 consecutive gains. Earnings +36% on +23% sales revenues for the Sep '13 quarter marked its 5th consecutive quarterly comparison with earnings above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). Prior mid-day reports cautioned - "It faces resistance due to overhead supply up through the $45 level."

Perched near its 52-week high today after choppy consolidation since noted in the 3/14/13 mid-day report with caution. Reported earnings +4% on +0% sales for the Sep 13 quarter, and earnings increases have been below the +25% minimum necessary to satisfy the C criteria. Waning annual earnings increases in FY '10 and '11 were noted as a flaw concerning the A criteria.

Considerable gap up gain today for new 52-week and multi-year highs. Stayed well above its 50 DMA line while consolidating while prior mid-day reports cautioned - "Reported earnings +29% on +16% sales revenues for the Aug '13 quarter, but fundamental concerns remain. Reported earnings +38% on +27% sales revenues for the May '13 quarter. Earnings in the prior 3 quarterly comparisons through Feb '13 were below the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria).

The 11/11/13 mid-day report cautioned members - "Reported earnings +39% on +16% sales revenues for the Sep '13 quarter but fundamental concerns remain. Quarterly earnings and sales revenues showed sub par increases in quarterly comparisons through Mar '13. Its annual earnings (A criteria) history included a loss in FY '09.

Hit another new 52-week high with today's 4th consecutive gain following a gap up and considerable volume-driven gain on the prior session, technically breaking out. It faces no resistance due to overhead supply. Undercut its 50 DMA line during its consolidation since last noted in the 10/10/13 mid-day report with caution - "This Chinese hotel manager went through a choppy consolidation below its 200 DMA line since noted in the 3/13/13 mid-day report with caution.

The China-based firm has been finding support above its 50 DMA line. Showed mostly bullish action since a technical breakout from an orderly base on 9/09/13. Prior mid-day reports repeatedly cautioned members - "Reported earnings +32% on +29% sales for the Jun '13 quarter. The 3 prior quarterly comparisons versus the year ago periods came in below the +25% minimum earnings (C criteria) guideline for buy candidates, contributing to a flaw in its annual earnings (A criteria)."

Reported earnings +30% on +32% sales revenues for the Sep '13 quarter, but fundamental concerns remain. Perched at its 52-week high today, stubbornly holding its ground after a streak of volume-driven gains. Found support above prior highs during its consolidation since noted in the 10/22/13 mid-day report with caution after volume-driven gains - "Cleared the previously noted large and orderly cup-with-handle base formed since noted in the 2/06/13 mid-day report with caution - 'Little resistance remains due to overhead supply. Reported strong sales and earnings increases in the Jun and Sep '12 quarters, but prior quarterly and annual earnings (A criteria) history included a downward turn in FY '11, making it not a good match with the fact-based investment system's guidelines.'"

Noted with caution in the 10/28/13 mid-day report while finding support near its 50 DMA line - "Fundamental concerns remain, as its quarterly earnings history has been strong in recent quarterly comparisons through Jun '13, but prior quarterly and annual earnings have not been strong and steady enough to meet the investment system's guidelines.

Inching to new 52-week and all-time highs with today's volume-driven gain. The Louisville, KY based pizza firm's up and down annual earnings (A criteria) history, lack of great sales revenues growth, and quarterly earnings comparisons mostly below the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria) leave fundamental concerns. Superior buy candidates under the investment system's guidelines always showed strong sales revenues increases indicative of great demand for their products or services.

Touched another new 52-week high today and no resistance remains due to overhead supply. It has not formed a sound base but found support near its 50 DMA line during its choppy ascent. Reported earnings +176% on +119% sales revenues for the Sep '13 quarter today before market open. Volume and volatility often increase near earnings news. Earned good ranks, however, prior mid-day reports cautioned - "Reported great earnings and sales revenues increases in quarterly comparisons through Jun '13 satisfying the C criteria. Limited annual earnings (A criteria) history is a concern and it is up considerably from its $11 IPO on 11/21/12."
