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	$47.09	+0.89 1.93%	$47.13	$47.13	-0.08%	43,298 61.33%	70,600
Most Recent Note for ASPS - 11/28/2011 12:11:17 PM Touched another new high today. 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."

BWLD - NASDAQ - LEISURE - Restaurants Buffalo Wild Wings Inc	$64.08	+4.22 7.05%	$64.83	$69.52	-7.83%	377,726 82.22%	459,400
Most Recent Note for BWLD - 11/28/2011 12:17:21 PM Rallying up from support at its 200 DMA line again with today's considerable gain. Reported earnings +30% on +31% sales revenues for the latest quarter ended September 30, 2011 versus the year ago period. It made a stand above the "neckline" defined by its prior low after mid-day reports recently noted - "It has the look of an ominous head-and-shoulders pattern formed over the past 5 months. Reported earnings +16% on +26% sales revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 versus the year ago period. The company has a strong annual earnings history (A criteria). The C criteria has not been well satisfied by +25% earnings increases in quarterly comparisons. Blue triangles beside the quarterly earnings figure in at least the past 8 comparisons indicate pre-tax, non-recurring items were included (where possible, such items are normally removed to provide data better suited for comparison). The restaurant operator survived but failed to impress as it went through several long and very deep corrections since it was dropped from the CANSLIM.net Featured Stocks List on 8/15/2007."

CBM - NYSE - CHEMICALS - Specialty Chemicals Cambrex Corp	$6.51	+0.30 4.87%	$6.57	$6.78	-3.95%	144,975 110.42%	131,300
Most Recent Note for CBM - 11/28/2011 12:19:31 PM Rising within striking distance of its 52-week high with a gap up and volume-driven gain today. Prior mid-day reports 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."

Most Recent Note for DKS - 11/28/2011 12:21:48 PM Gapped up today after consolidating near its 50 and 200 DMA lines.

Most Recent Note for FL - 11/28/2011 12:24:57 PM Gapped up today after consolidating near its 50 and 200 DMA lines. Quarterly results showed strong earnings increases but sales revenues growth has been sub par and its annual earnings (A criteria) history is not a good match with the investment system's guidelines.

Most Recent Note for HALO - 11/28/2011 12:29:25 PM The June and September '11 quarters showed great sales revenues increases and earnings versus year ago losses. Years of ongoing operating losses make it not a match with the investment system's guidelines.

HITK - NASDAQ - DRUGS - Drugs - Generic Hi Tech Pharmacal	$40.32	+2.32 6.11%	$40.83	$40.83	-1.25%	155,967 79.74%	195,600
Most Recent Note for HITK - 11/28/2011 12:30:45 PM Hit another new 52-week high with today's gap up gain, getting more extended from any sound base pattern. Prior mid-day reports noted - "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."

HSTM - NASDAQ - INTERNET - Internet Service Providers Healthstream Inc	$16.63	-0.01 -0.06%	$17.20	$18.30	-9.13%	223,031 192.10%	116,100
Most Recent Note for HSTM - 11/28/2011 12:32:47 PM Still pulling back from last Monday's new 52-week high. On 11/18/11 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	$8.19	+0.45 5.81%	$8.25	$8.50	-3.65%	4,209,622 71.97%	5,848,800
Most Recent Note for KOG - 11/28/2011 12:33:15 PM Still hovering near its 52-week high after completing the 11/18/11 Public Offering of 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 KSU - 11/28/2011 12:34:10 PM Gapped up today. Encountered recent distributional pressure while consolidating above prior highs in the $62 area defining near-term chart support to watch. The mid-day report on 10/27/11 - "Gapped up and hit new 52-week and all-time highs today after a 13-week cup shaped base without a handle. Reported earnings +32% on +24% sales revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 versus the year ago period. Strong quarterly earnings (C criteria) increases have been backed by accelerating sales revenues increases. Its annual earnings history (A criteria) included a drastic downturn in FY '09."

MMS - NYSE - DIVERSIFIED SERVICES - Education & Training Services Maximus Inc	$38.97	+1.22 3.23%	$39.27	$42.77	-8.88%	132,178 57.69%	229,100
Most Recent Note for MMS - 11/28/2011 12:38:09 PM Consolidating near its 50 DMA and 200 DMA lines today. Went through a deep consolidation since last noted in the 6/03/11 mid-day report - "With a considerable gain after announcing a 2:1 stock split and 20 percent increase in its quarterly dividend. Found support near its 50 DMA line last week while consolidating and building on an orderly base. Ownership interest by top-rated funds fell from 397 in Jun '10 to 364 in Mar '11, which is not reassuring concerning the I criteria. Earnings increases in recent comparisons have been mostly above the +25% guideline but sales revenues increases in the +5-11% range have been sub par."

Most Recent Note for NKE - 11/28/2011 12:39:54 PM Gapped up today, rebounding from below its 50 DMA line. Quarterly comparisons show sales revenues and earnings growth below the +25% guideline while its annual earnings (A criteria) growth history has been slow and steady.

Most Recent Note for PZZA - 11/28/2011 12:42:47 PM Gapped up today and hit a new 52-week high following an advanced "3-weeks tight" pattern. The 11/03/11 mid-day report noted - "After reporting +38% earnings on +12% sales revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 versus the year ago period. The Louisville, KY based pizza firm's lack of sales revenues growth in previous quarterly comparisons versus the year ago period is a concern. Superior buy candidates under the investment system's guidelines always showed strong sales revenues increases indicative of great demand for their products or services."

RDEN - NASDAQ - CONSUMER NON-DURABLES - Personal Products Elizabeth Arden Inc	$34.00	+1.36 4.17%	$34.35	$36.85	-7.73%	128,368 72.36%	177,400
Most Recent Note for RDEN - 11/28/2011 12:45:53 PM Consolidating near its 50 DMA line and -7.5% off its 52-week high. Leadership in the Cosmetics/Personal Care industry group (L criteria) is reassuring. Found support near its 200 DMA line during its consolidation in recent months. Recent quarters showed much improved earnings increases versus the year earlier while sales revenue growth rate has been in the +3-11% range. Its annual earnings (A criteria) growth has not been strong and steady, so it is fundamentally below guidelines of the fact-based investment system.

Most Recent Note for SAVE - 11/28/2011 12:48:03 PM Gapped up today for a gain that has it poised for a possible best-ever close. Churned above average volume without making meaningful price progress above prior highs in recent weeks, action indicative of 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."

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.

Most Recent Note for SWM - 11/28/2011 12:53:17 PM This maker of cigarette paper and tobacco products has been consolidating in a tight range since last noted in the 10/24/11 mid-day report as it gapped up on news it had resolved an intellectual property dispute with specialty paper company Delfortgroup over fire-safe cigarette paper and agreed to a licensing agreement with the company.
