Prior highs in the $127 area define near-term support to watch while consolidating near its all-time high. Prior mid-day reports noted - "Quarterly earnings increases through Sep '18 have been above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). Sub par sales revenues growth remains a concern. Annual earnings history (A criteria) has been improving since a drastic downturn in FY '12-13."

Gapped up today rallying near prior highs. Little resistance remains due to overhead supply up to the $55 level. Found support near its 200 DMA line and prior lows with a "positive reversal" on the prior session. Reported earnings +58% on +23% sales revenues for the Sep '18 quarter, but fundamental concerns remain. Prior mid-day reports cautioned members - "It has a small supply (S criteria) of only 7.3 million shares in the public float. Reported Jun '18 earnings +88% on +33% sales revenues, marking its 3rd consecutive quarterly comparison with earnings well above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). Annual earnings (A criteria) growth has not been strong and steady, so it is fundamentally below guidelines of the fact-based investment system."

Undercutting its 200 DMA line again and testing prior lows in the $91-92 area. Noted with caution in prior mid-day reports - "Reported earnings +72% on -2% sales revenues for the quarter ended July 31, 2018 versus the year ago period. Fundamental concerns remain. Quarterly sales revenues and earnings history has not been steady, and its up and down annual earnings (A criteria) history is a concern. Increasing ownership by top-rated funds (I criteria) is a reassuring sign."
