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 - Color code is changed to yellow with pivot point cited based on its 12/04/24 high. Hitting a new all-time high with today's big gain after recently consolidating in an orderly fashion above its 50 DMA line. A gain and strong close above the pivot point backed by at least +40% above average volume may clinch a technical buy signal. Reported Sep '24 quarterly earnings +755% on +15% sales revenues versus the year ago period. Three of the 4 latest quarterly comparisons were well above the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria). Annual earnings (A criteria) history has been strong after a downturn in FY '20.

Slumping further below its 50 DMA line ($13.21) with today's 3rd consecutive loss. The 50 DMA had acted as support on recent pullbacks.

Erratic annual earnings history (A criteria) remains a concern.
