More details about this report...
At around
mid-way through each trading day we run
a screen against our database of
high-ranked stocks, searching for
possible buy candidates that are trading
at or near their 52-week high on above
average volume. The results of that
screen are split into the two sections
you see below. The first, titled
"TODAY's FEATURED STOCKS" shows stocks
that our experts have recently
identified as among the strongest candidates to
consider. Stocks highlighted in yellow
are the most timely and noteworthy, so
particular attention and prompt action
may be appropriate. The second section,
titled "TODAY's BREAKOUT SCREEN" shows
the remainder of stocks meeting today's
screen parameters. Our experts have
reviewed and included notes on these
stocks as well, but found that they may
not match up as favorably.

Y - Today's strongest
candidates
highlighted
by our staff
of experts.

G - Previously featured in
this report as yellow and

Y - Holding its ground today. On the prior session it blasted out of an orderly "double bottom" type base with pivot point cited based on its 11/08/10 high. Sales and earnings increases have been strong. It may be considered a "breakaway gap" which is the one noted exception that allows investors to chase a stock more than +5% above its pivot point. Patient investors may find chances to accumulate on pullbacks. See the latest Featured Stock Update (FSU) analysis with annotated graph.

Most Recent Note for DORM - 12/3/2010 12:42:12 PM
Hitting a new high today after a V shaped consolidation. Prior mid-day reports repeatedly noted it as - "Extended from prior chart highs in the $25-26 area. It rallied from an inverse-head-and-shoulders type pattern since finding support at its 200 DMA following the previously noted 'breakaway gap' on 4/27/10. Leadership in the Auto/Truck - Replacement Parts group (L criteria) is a reassuring sign. The C criteria is satisfied as recent quarterly comparisons show earnings increases above the +25% guideline on +15%-20% better sales versus the year ago period. Its up and down annual earnings history (A criteria) is a concern."

Most Recent Note for PVH - 12/3/2010 1:12:16 PM
Gains this week lacked truly great volume conviction as it managed to reach new 52-week highs above its April 2010 peak. Its FY '10 earnings dipped after showing great annual earnings growth in prior years, yet recent quarterly comparisons have show strong sales revenues increases and good earnings growth following a streak of negative comparisons. Last noted in the 4/26/10 mid-day report after the company announced pricing of an offering of 5 million shares near all-time highs to raise funds to acquire Tommy Hilfiger brand. Noted in 4/22/10 mid-day report - "Steadily climbing in recent weeks since a "breakaway gap" on 3/15/10, however its earnings and sales history remain below the guidelines of the fact-based system."
