Hit a 3rd consecutive new 52-week high today with its 3rd consecutive mid-day report appearance. It held its ground and made additional progress higher since its 2/10/11 breakaway gap. Prior mid-day reports noted - "Recent quarters showed better sales and earnings increases versus the year earlier. Prior quarterly comparisons and annual earnings (A criteria) growth have not been strong and steady, so it is fundamentally below guidelines of the fact-based investment system."

Hit a new high today after holding its ground following a considerable gap up gain on 2/18/11 for an all-time high. The prior mid-day report noted the gap up - "After reporting earnings +133% on +50% sales revenues. It did not form a sound base under the investment system guidelines since it was dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 1/28/11, yet it found support near prior lows in the $20.50 area and stayed well above its 200 DMA line. Gains above its 50 DMA line in recent weeks helped its outlook improve. Patient investors may watch for a new base to form rather than chasing it after the big breakaway gap."

Reported earnings +76% on -56% sales revenues (substantially lower revenues) for the quarter ended December 31, 2010 versus the year ago period. Noted in prior mid-day reports - "Quarterly financial reports recently showed improving sales revenues and earnings increases, however, prior quarters and years (A criteria) showed sub par sales revenues and earnings growth.'"

Gapped up today for a new 52-week high. Steadily advanced since a 9/03/10 breakaway gap, continually finding support above its 50 DMA line. Recent quarters showed better sales and earnings increases versus the year earlier. Prior quarterly comparisons and annual earnings (A criteria) growth have not been strong and steady, so it is fundamentally below guidelines of the fact-based investment system. It survived but failed to impress since dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 3/29/05.

Touched a new 52-week high today. Recently consolidating after a streak of volume-driven gains. Prior mid-day reports noted - "The 4 latest quarters showed great earnings increases (satisfying the C criteria) and sales revenues growing after a streak of negative comparisons. Its large supply of 523 Million shares (S criteria) outstanding makes it an unlikely sprinter, and its downturn in FY '09 earnings is a flaw in the A criteria."

Found support at its 50 DMA line and above previous resistance at $6.00 while consolidating since last noted in the 1/28/11 mid-day report - "Found support when consolidating near its 200 DMA line late last year. The 3 latest quarters show greatly improved sales and earnings but its prior quarterly and annual earnings history has been below guidelines."

Churned a lot of volume this week without making meaningful price progress above prior resistance in the $17 area, a sign it has been encountering distributional pressure.

Prior quarterly comparisons and annual earnings (A criteria) growth have not been strong and steady, so it is fundamentally below guidelines of the fact-based investment system."

Perched at its 52-week high today following a 3/03/11 gap up gain on heavy volume. No overhead supply remains to act as resistance. Previously noted its considerable gap up gain on 2/25/11 helped it rebound from below its 200 DMA line after a "double bottom" base that was formed while consolidating since it hit its 52-week high when noted in the 12/13/10 mid-day report - "Recent quarterly comparisons show strong sales revenues and earnings increases after a loss in FY '09 and an up and down annual earnings (A criteria)."

Today's 3rd consecutive gain with above average volume helped it touch a new 52-week high and no overhead supply remains to act as resistance. Continuing to rally following a previously noted "breakaway gap" on 2/09/11. It found support above its 200 DMA line during a deep consolidation since the 12/07/10 mid-day report noted - "Recent quarters showed improving sales and earnings, but its earnings history is below guidelines after losses in FY '08 and '09 (bad A criteria)."

Gapped up today, hitting new 52-week and all-time highs while continuing its spurt of volume-driven gains. It is on track for its 6th consecutive weekly gain. The recently noted "12-week deep 'V' shaped base" was not a sound base pattern, yet it has rebounded and rallied impressively after a deeper pullback since 1/13/11 when it was dropped from the Featured Stocks list.

Hit another new all-time high today while making its 4th consecutive mid-day report appearance. Prior mid-day reports noted - "While rising just above previously stubborn resistance in the $13 area, no overhead supply remains to act as resistance. It completed a Public Offering on 12/14/10 after it was noted in a handful of Nov and Dec '10 mid-day reports - 'This low-priced Canadian mining company's considerable gain with heavy volume for a new 52-week high may catch the eye of some technical traders. Its 4 latest quarterly comparisons show strong sales revenues and earnings increases following negative comparisons in the prior 4 quarters. Last noted in the 5/13/10 mid-day report after a then recent surge to new highs, then it subsequently slumped below its 200 DMA line before rebounding impressively. Poor annual earnings (A criteria) history is a fundamental concern.'"
