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 - Holding its ground against a severely negative market backdrop. After featured in the 8/02/11 mid-day report its 8/03/11 gain triggered a technical buy signal with +170% above average volume behind its gain. The M criteria urges extreme caution, however, since 3 out of 4 stocks generally go along with the broader market averages.

Y - Pulling back today and slumping under its pivot point, raising concerns. The considerable gap up gain on 8/03/11 for a new all-time high after a 4 week consolidation triggered a technical buy signal. The M criteria remains an overriding concern for disciplined investors, arguing against any new buying efforts until a confirmed uptrend in the major averages resumes.

Consolidating in tight range since 6/29/11 news it is to be acquired by Leonard Green Partners and CVC for $51.25 per shares. Unimpressive sales growth and annual earnings history (A criteria) are concerns, while its latest quarterly earnings increase of +26% on +10% sales revenues for the April '11 period was its first comparison above the +25% earnings guideline in years.

Fundamentals are still sub par today. Slumped to its 200 DMA line then rebounded to new highs and formed base-on-base patterns since last noted in the 9/01/10 mid-day report -"Hit a new 52-week high today, which may interest technical traders. However, quarterly sales revenues increases in the +1-6% range for the past 8 comparisons versus the year ago period are an indication there has not been great growth in demand for its products."

Holding its ground near its 52-week highs since gapping up following 7/14/11 M&A news. Annual and quarterly earnings history has been up and down (bad C & A criteria).

Most Recent Note for PRA - 8/5/2011 12:26:38 PM
Rallying near its 50 DMA line with volume-driven gains following a quiet consolidation since recently rallying above its 2008 high ($71.16) to reach new all-time high territory. Annual earnings (A criteria) history has been steady but estimates are calling for -15% earnings for FY '11. Quarterly comparisons show earnings increases near the +25% guideline but sub par sales growth is a concern.

Still holding its ground stubbornly after previously noted volume-driven gains. Its considerable breakaway gap up on 7/29/11 for a new 52-week high, technically cleared a long base pattern, and it was noted in the mid-day report - "Earnings increased by +125% on +26% sales revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2011. Showing impressive sequential acceleration in recent quarterly comparisons, but prior quarterly comparisons showed lackluster sales revenues increases well below the +25% guideline, leaving some fundamental concerns."

Earnings increases and sales revenues growth in the Mar and Jun '11 quarters showed improvement but its prior quarterly and annual earnings history has been below the investment system guidelines after a downward turn in FY '09 earnings.
