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 - Up today, rallying within striking distance of its best-ever close. Held its ground after reversing back into the prior base when encountering distributional pressure immediately following its volume-driven breakout on 12/20/11. The 50 DMA line is initial chart support to watch.

Most Recent Note for AMSWA - 12/28/2011 12:25:06 PM
Perched at its 52-week high today and making its 2nd consecutive mid-day report appearance. No overhead supply remains to act as resistance. Reported earnings +71% on +22% sales for the quarter ended October 31, 2011 versus the year ago period. Found support near its 50 and 200 DMA lines when consolidating since noted in the 11/11/11 mid-day report - "The 2 latest quarterly comparisons (Apr and Jul '11) showed better sales revenues and earnings increases but prior quarters and its annual earnings (A criteria) history fall short of the fact-based investment system's guidelines. Low-priced stocks are considered riskier candidates and typically should be avoided unless all key criteria are solidly satisfied."

Holding its ground near its 52-week high today following a gap up gain with above average volume on the prior session. Sales revenues and earnings increases improved in the 2 latest quarters (Aug and Nov '11), but prior quarterly earnings comparisons and annual earnings (C & A criteria) history has been below the fact-based investment system's guidelines. It was last noted in the 12/29/03 mid-day report.

Most Recent Note for CKSW - 12/28/2011 12:33:17 PM
Sputtering near its 50 DMA line today while making its 2nd consecutive mid-day report appearance. The 12/27/11 mid-day report noted - "Earnings rose +89% on +32% sales revenues for the latest quarter ended September 30, 2011 versus the year ago period. Prior quarterly and annual earnings (A criteria) history has been below the investment system's guidelines. Guidelines also suggest avoiding low priced stocks unless all key criteria are solidly satisfied. This Israeli Computer Software - Enterprise firm survived but failed to impress since last noted in the 7/23/09 mid-day report."

Most Recent Note for CLFD - 12/28/2011 12:40:04 PM
Reversed into the red after early gains today following a considerable volume-driven gain and rally above earlier chart highs on the prior session. It is now -12.8% off its 52-week high with little resistance remaining due to overhead supply. Its annual earnings (A criteria) history has not shown strong and steady growth. Last noted in the 8/03/11 mid-day report - "Low-priced Telecom -Fiber Optics firm has shown minuscule revenues but improving sales revenues and earnings in the 3 latest quarterly comparisons. Technically it rose from a double bottom base pattern in late-April with volume driven-gains."

Challenged its 52-week high with today's early gains, then reversed into the red. Last noted in the 12/20/11 and prior mid-day reports - "Earnings history has been erratic, so while it may be an interesting turn-around story it is not a match with the investment system's guidelines."
