This pharmaceuticals firm hit a new 52-week high today. The low-priced stock was noted after a 4-week consolidation the 11/29/11 mid-day report - "Recent quarterly comparisons show strong sales revenues and earnings increases, however it does not have a strong annual earnings history (A criteria not satisfied) matching the models of past great winners identified using the fact-based investment system."

Most Recent Note for ASPS - 11/30/2011 12:05:37 PM
Inching steadily higher, it touched yet 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."

Gapped up and hit another new 52 week high today. Found support near its 50 DMA line during its recent consolidation. Prior mid-day reports noted - "No resistance remains due to overhead supply.

Its annual earnings (A criteria) history has been up and down."

Touched a new 52-week high today with a 3rd consecutive volume-driven gain. This low-priced stock was noted in prior mid-day reports - "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."

Recently rallied above resistance in the $27 area and it gapped up today for a new 52-week high. Reported earnings +53% on +21% sales revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 versus the year ago period. No resistance remains due to overhead supply. From its prior high it went through a deep consolidation below its 200 DMA line since noted in the 8/02/11 mid-day report - "Recent quarterly earnings increases above the +25% guideline satisfy the C criteria, but its up and down annual earnings (A criteria) history is a concern. Based on weak action it was dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 10/03/08 and fundamentals deteriorated afterward while it slumped from above $21 to as low as $8.57 before rebounding."

Last noted in the 10/28/11 mid-day report - "Sales revenues and earnings were above the +25% guideline for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 but its prior earnings history is not a match with the investment system's guidelines. It plunged from $58 to $20 in 4 months after weak technical action prompted it to be dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 8/01/2008, serving as an example of why investors should limit all losses at 7-8%. It broke down shortly after its appearance as a promising looking buy candidate in the July 2008 issue of CANSLIM.net News (see here)."

Consolidating for a 5th week in a tight range above prior highs since its considerable "breakaway gap" when noted in the 10/27/11 mid-day report - "Hitting a new 52-week high. Reported earnings +65% on +100% sales revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 versus the year ago period, its second consecutive strong quarterly report. Prior quarterly comparisons showed sub par sales and earnings results and its annual earnings (A criteria) history is not a match with the winning models of the fact-based system. It survived but failed to impress since it was dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 6/12/2008. Traded up as much as +21.5% after first featured at $50.74 in the 3/18/08 CANSLIM.net Mid-Day BreakOuts Report (read here)."

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 periods.

Gapped up today hitting a new all-time high. Prior highs in the $62 area acted as technical support during its recent consolidation. 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."

Small gap up today challenging its 52-week high. Found support well above prior highs and its 50 DMA line in the $39 area during its recent consolidation. Prior mid-day reports noted - "Big gains on heavy volume (10/18 & 10/19) helped it break out from a previously noted 13-week base. It rallied clear of all resistance due to overhead supply. The Jun and Sep '11 quarters showed great fundamental improvement. Prior quarterly and annual earnings (C and A criteria) results have been up and down, not showing strong and steady growth matching the fact-based system's guidelines."

Hit another new 52-week high today with a 3rd consecutive volume-driven gain 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."

The 2 prior mid-day reports noted - "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."

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."

Considerable gap up gain today for a new 52-week high, rallying for a 4th consecutive gain with no resistance due to overhead supply. Found support above prior highs and its 50 DMA line in the $35 area during the recent consolidation. Technically it broke out after reporting earnings +25% on +18% sales revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 versus the year ago period, but the 11/02/11 mid-day report cautioned - "Prior comparisons were just under the +25% earnings guideline while it showed slight sales and earnings acceleration, and its annual earnings (A criteria) history is good. No resistance remains due to overhead supply as it is inching above multi-month resistance in the $35 area."
