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

of experts.

G - Previously featured in
this report as yellow and
now may no longer be buyable
under the guidelines.

Most Recent Note for CRM - 12/4/2024 12:15:45 PM
Gapped up today hitting a new all-time high. Found support while consolidating above its March '24 high. Reported Oct '24 quarterly earnings +14% on +8% sales revenues versus the year ago period, its 2nd subpar quarter after a streak of 5 strong quarterly comparisons above the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria). Went through a long and deep consolidation from its high in 2021. Large supply of 956 million shares outstanding (S criteria) makes it an unlikely sprinter, and it is already owned by more than 4,975 top-rated funds (I criteria). A slight downturn in its FY '22 annual earnings (A criteria) history has been followed with very strong growth.

Reported Sep '24 quarterly earnings +2% on +26% sales revenues versus the year-ago period, well below the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria). Hitting a new 52-week high with today's 4th consecutive gain backed by ever-increasing volume. It was dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 7/31/24 after losses violated support at its 200 DMA line triggering a worrisome technical sell signal.

Most Recent Note for FOUR - 12/4/2024 12:28:37 PM
Pulling back from its 52-week high with today's volume-driven loss after getting extended from any sound base and making progress above prior highs. Reported Sep '24 quarterly earnings +27% on +25% sales revenues versus the year-ago period. Three of the 4 latest quarterly comparisons have shown strong sales revenues and earnings increases above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). Limited annual earnings history (A criteria) is a concern, but after a loss in FY '20 it showed great earnings growth in FY '21-23.

Most Recent Note for NOW - 12/4/2024 12:33:51 PM
Gapped up today hitting another new all-time high with a big volume-driven gain, getting more extended from any sound base. Patient investors may watch for a new base or secondary buy point to possibly develop and be noted in the weeks ahead. Fundamentals remain strong after it reported Sep '24 quarterly earnings +27% on +22% sales revenues versus the year-ago period. It was dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 4/19/24.

Most Recent Note for RBA - 12/4/2024 12:45:19 PM
Perched at its all-time high, extended from any sound base. Reported Sep '24 quarterly earnings -1% on -4% sales revenues versus the year ago period. Prior quarterly comparisons have not shown strong and steady earnings increases above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria) and so it is not a great match with the fact-based investment system's fundamental guidelines.
