Symbol - Exchange - Industry Group Company Name	Last	Chg	Day High	52 WK Hi	% From Hi	Volume % DAV	DAV
ASPS - NASDAQ - REAL ESTATE - Property Management/Developmen Altisource Ptf Sltns Sa	$46.01	+0.68 1.50%	$46.02	$46.02	-0.02%	67,118 95.07%	70,600
Most Recent Note for ASPS - 11/22/2011 12:06:57 PM Still inching higher today, hitting another new high. Prior mid-day reports noted - "Rallied to new all-time high territory with a recent spurt of volume-driven gains. Technically, it broke out with a considerable gain on 10/27/11. Quarterly earnings increases have been mostly strong and backed by solid sales revenues increases, but the -16% earnings in its Jun '11 quarter is a flaw concerning the C criteria. This Luxembourg-based Financial Services firm's small supply (S criteria) of only 16.2 million shares in the public float can contribute to greater volatility in the event of institutional buying or selling. ASPS was dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 10/07/10 then violated its 200 DMA with a streak of volume-driven losses, and it subsequently rebounded back above its 200 DMA and 50 DMA lines."

CBM - NYSE - CHEMICALS - Specialty Chemicals Cambrex Corp	$6.21	+0.36 6.15%	$6.24	$6.78	-8.41%	106,041 80.76%	131,300
Most Recent Note for CBM - 11/22/2011 12:09:43 PM Rebounding toward its 52-week high today following 2 consecutive losses with above average volume. The 11/18/11 mid-day report noted - "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	$35.34	+0.22 0.63%	$35.67	$37.50	-5.76%	59,051 123.28%	47,900
Most Recent Note for CRMT - 11/22/2011 12:10:59 PM Holding its ground following a considerable gain when noted in the 11/18/11 mid-day report - "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 revenues 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)."

DLTR - NASDAQ - RETAIL - Discount, Variety Stores Dollar Tree Inc	$77.03	+1.34 1.77%	$78.00	$82.49	-6.62%	920,211 62.62%	1,469,400
Most Recent Note for DLTR - 11/22/2011 12:13:42 PM Rebounding near its 50 DMA line which may now act as resistance after its recent slump below that important short-term average. Reported earnings +19% on +12% sales for the quarter ended October 31, 2011 versus the year ago period, below the fact-based investment system's guidelines. Prior mid-day reports noted - "Good annual earnings history and quarterly earnings increases above the +25% meet the investment system's C and A guidelines, however sales revenues have shown just steady increases in the +12-14% range."

Most Recent Note for EXR - 11/22/2011 12:16:07 PM Holding its ground stubbornly and wedging to new 52-week highs without great volume conviction since its gap up gain on heavy volume on 10/27/11 helped it break out from a "double bottom" base pattern. Annual earnings (A criteria) history has not been strong and steady, but recent quarterly comparisons have shown improving sales revenues and better earnings increases near or above the +25% guideline. Prior mid-day reports noted - "Its earnings history is below the investment system's guidelines for sound buy candidates."

Most Recent Note for GCO - 11/22/2011 12:18:28 PM Reported earnings +57% on +33% sales revenues for the quarter ended October 31, 2011 versus the year ago period. Hovering within close striking distance of its 52-week high after finding support near its 50 DMA line. Prior mid-day reports noted - "Recent quarterly comparisons showed stronger increases in sales revenues and improved earnings but its annual earnings (A criteria) history has not met the fact-based investment system's guidelines."

HITK - NASDAQ - DRUGS - Drugs - Generic Hi Tech Pharmacal	$39.18	+1.46 3.87%	$39.50	$39.50	-0.81%	113,635 58.10%	195,600
Most Recent Note for HITK - 11/22/2011 12:24:51 PM Hit a new 52-week high with today's 4th consecutive gain, getting extended from any sound base pattern. Held its ground stubbornly above its 50 DMA line after rising from a previously noted orderly 5-week consolidation. Recent quarterly comparisons have shown strong sales revenues and earnings increases (good C criteria). Losses in FY '07 & '08 are a flaw concerning the investment system's A criteria, and consensus estimates calling for lackluster earnings in FY '12 and FY '13 are additional cause for concern.

Most Recent Note for HRL - 11/22/2011 12:26:19 PM Found support near its closely coinciding 50 DMA and 200 DMA lines. Last noted in the 8/23/11 mid-day report - "Quarterly and annual earnings history (C and A criteria) are below guidelines of the fact-based investment system."

Most Recent Note for KOG - 11/22/2011 12:30:06 PM Holding its ground near its 52-week high and churning above average volume after completing the previously noted Public Offering to 42 million shares at $7.75 per share. This low-priced firm in the Oil & Gas - US Exploration/Production industry's 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.

Most Recent Note for SAVE - 11/22/2011 12:37:25 PM Churning above average volume without making meaningful price progress in recent weeks indicates that it is encountering some distributional pressure. It is extended from prior chart highs in the $14 area. The 10/27/11 mid-day report noted - "Rising from what may be considered a high handle. Held its ground above prior highs during its consolidation since gapping up on 10/13/11 after a 13-week cup shaped based base. Limited earnings history and trading history since its 5/26/11 IPO at $12 is a concern."

Most Recent Note for SPPI - 11/22/2011 12:43:45 PM Inching to a new 52-week high today with a 2nd consecutive volume-driven gain. Prior mid-day reports noted - "Recent volume-driven gains helped it rally up the right side of a deep 15-week cup shaped base. After years of operating losses (bad A criteria) it has reported solid earnings backed by huge sales revenues increases versus much smaller revenues and year-ago losses in the 3 latest quarterly comparisons through Sep '11.
