Y - Perched near its 52-week high after building a base above prior resistance in the $38 area. Color code is changed to yellow with pivot point cited based on its 3/03/11 high after an 8-week double bottom base pattern. Volume driven gains above its pivot point may trigger a technical buy signal, but disciplined investors will watch for proof of institutional buying demand and avoid the urge to get in "early". Prior mid-day reports noted - "This German firm is a high-ranked Electronics - Semiconductor Equipment company that has shown impressive earnings growth in recent years. Quarterly sales and earnings results in recent comparisons have been strong enough to satisfy the C criteria but showing sequential deceleration. Consensus earnings estimates calling for FY '11 earnings to grow by only +4% are also cause for some concern. "

Y - Up today for a 7th consecutive gain, trading nearly +5% above its pivot point. Its 4/01/11 gain with above average volume cleared the previously cited pivot point triggering a new (or add-on) technical buy signal. The new Public Offering completed on 3/25/11 may hinder its upward progress for the near-term, however it has been attracting top-rated funds as owners (I criteria).

Up again today for a 6th consecutive gain and another new all-time high. It is extended from any sound base after a recently noted spurt of gains. The Vancouver, BC headquartered firm engaged in silver production in Mexico was noted in prior mid-day reports - "It found support above its 50 DMA line in the interim and has spurted higher with more volume-driven gains. On 12/15/10 it was listed on the NYSE. Recent quarterly comparisons showed solid sales and earnings increases but its annual earnings (A criteria) history has been below guidelines."

Today it is trading within close striking distance of its 52-week high after recovering back above its 50 DMA line. It found support near its 2008 high ($33.60) in recent weeks when enduring distributional pressure. Prior mid-day reports noted - "Recent quarters show sales and earnings improving but prior history is below the fact-based system's guidelines. Quarterly and annual earnings results include blue triangles beside the reported earnings figures - the blue triangles are symbols indicating that pre-tax, non-recurring items were included (where possible, such items are normally removed to provide data better suited for comparison)."

Up today for a 6th consecutive gain and another new 52-week high. Prior mid-day reports noted - "Reported earnings +13% on +14% sales revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2010 versus the year ago period. It found support above its 50 DMA line when consolidating, then continued rising since noted in the 12/14/10 mid-day report - 'It has rebounded impressively after its subsequent trip below its long-term 200 DMA line. Sales revenues increases have been in the +10-20% range while earnings increases were above the +25% guideline in the past 5 quarterly comparisons through September 30, 2010. That followed a streak of negative comparisons. Its annual earnings (A criteria) have been up and down, leaving concerns.'"

Hit a new all-time high today with a considerable gain helping it rally above previously noted resistance in the $45-46 area.No resistance remains due to overhead supply while it is now rising from a "double bottom" type base pattern. A streak of consecutive gains helped it rally back above its 50 DMA line which was violated with damaging distributional action since noted in the 2/01/11 mid-day report - "Earnings history has been erratic and below guidelines."

Hitting new all-time highs while on track for a 6th consecutive gain today, and no resistance remains due to overhead supply. It found support near its 2007-2008 highs during its recent consolidation below its 50 DMA line. Its erratic earnings history is cause for concern as the downturn in FY '09 earnings is a flaw with respect to the A criteria. The huge Chinese Oil and Gas Exploration/Production was last noted in the 11/19/10 mid-day report - "Its 2 most recent quarterly comparisons showed big sales revenues and earnings increases after a streak of at least 6 prior comparisons with earnings ranging from +6% to -54% versus the year ago period, below guidelines of the fact-based investment system."

There is no overhead supply to act as resistance. Recent quarterly results showed great earnings and sales increases versus the year ago period.

Perched at 52-week and multi-year highs today after 13 consecutive gains, extended from any sound base pattern. No resistance remains due to overhead supply. Recent quarters showed much better earnings increases with lackluster sales revenues increases versus the year earlier. It found great support near its 50 DMA line while consolidating after the 1/26/11 mid-day report noted - "Its annual earnings (A criteria) growth has not been strong and steady, so it is fundamentally below guidelines of the fact-based investment system."

Hit a new 52-week high today while on track for a 7th consecutive gain without great volume conviction. Recently repaired the previously noted violations of its 50 DMA line and prior low ($52.58 on 1/28/11), and now no overhead supply remains to hinder its progress. It did not form a sound base pattern or trigger a technical buy signal since it was dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 3/16/11. Disciplined investors may consider other fresh breakouts, or watch for a sound new base to form and be noted.

No overhead supply remains to act as resistance and it hit a new 52-week high today. It is not near a sound base, yet it has been recently wedging higher while its 50 DMA line acted as support. Quarterly comparisons have shown sales revenues increases in the +10-12% range and earnings increases borderline with the +25% minimum guideline after a streak of negative comparisons in '09. It sank as lows as $13.34 from $29.91 when it was dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 5/01/08.

Perched at its 52-week and all-time highs today while on track for a 12th consecutive gain. Disciplined investors may watch for a secondary buy point to develop and be noted. Right now it is extended from any sound base pattern, and prior highs may act as chart support on pullbacks. Its Relative Strength rating has improved to 87, however its Relative Strength line did not recently lead the way and confirm new highs. Based on technical deterioration it was dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 10/19/10, and it found support at its long-term average a couple of times since noted - "The next support to watch is its 200 DMA line."

Up again today after a considerable gain with above average volume for a new 52-week high on the prior session helped it rise from a short and choppy flat base. It stayed above its 50 DMA line during its consolidation since noted in the 2/18/11 mid-day report - "Recent quarterly comparisons showed improved sales and earnings but its erratic earnings history falls below the investment system guidelines. This low-priced stock technically broke out on 11/02/10 with a gap up gain on heavy volume. It is perched near its 52-week high today. As previously noted, low-priced stocks are riskier candidates which are discouraged from being considered buy candidates the investment system guidelines."
