Y - Reversed into the red after trading up beyond its "max buy" level earlier. Rallied and closed above its pivot point on the prior session with +75% above average volume behind its gain while breaking out of a cup-with-handle base. Faces little resistance up through the $58 level. The M criteria has shifted to a "confirmed uptrend" following Friday's gain of +1.4% by the Nasdaq Composite Index, recognized as a follow-through day while writers for the newspaper stated that the abbreviated session's volume was running at a higher pace.

Inched to another new 52-week high today with its 11th gain backed by above average volume in the span of 12 sessions, distancing itself from prior highs in the $27 area.

Prior mid-day reports noted - "Its underlying sales revenues and its annual earnings (A criteria) growth history are not meeting the fact-based investment system's guidelines."

Reported earnings +27% on +17% sales revenues for the Sep '12 quarter, marking 3 consecutive quarters with earnings above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria) after a sub par Dec '11 marred its strong earnings track record. It has encountered stubborn resistance in the $19 area after a deep consolidation, and it faces a little resistance due to overhead supply up to its all-time high hit when noted cautiously in the 5/10/11 mid-day report - "This Chinese Real Estate Internet portal firm's IPO was on 9/17/10 and its shares split 4:1 on 2/18/11."

Rallying for a new 52-week high today, rising from a 15-week base with volume running at an above average pace behind its considerable breakout gain. Quarterly earnings increases above the +25% guideline in the 3 most recent comparisons satisfy the C criteria. A downward turn in its FY '09 earnings is an obvious flaw with respect to the investment system's A criteria. Ownership by top-rated funds rose from 221 in Dec '11 to 251 in Sep '12, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. It is an interesting turn around story with a small supply of only 21.3 million shares (S criteria) outstanding. Longtime members may recall that SSYS was long ago (2003) featured in our monthly newsletter and special reports.
