Hit a new 52-week high today, and no overhead supply remains to hinder its progress. After last noted in the 7/14/11 mid-day report it slumped to its 200 DMA line and then promptly rebounded. Produced strong earnings increases above the +25% guideline in quarterly comparisons and strong annual earnings (C and A criteria) growth. Sales revenues increases in the +6-11% range for the past 5 quarterly comparisons through June '11 show no great growth in demand for its products and services. Secondary Offerings were completed on 3/31/10 and on 8/18/10.

Approaching its 52-week high with gains this week, rebounding after a deep pullback under its 50 DMA and 200 DMA lines since noted in the 7/19/11 mid-day report - "No overhead supply remains to act as resistance. Sales revenues have been +12-19% and earnings increases above the +25% guideline for the past 4 comparisons through Mar '11 versus the year ago period(s). The prior growth history for this Retail/Wholesale Building Products firm included a downturn in FY '09 which raises concerns with respect to the A criteria of the fact-based investment system's guidelines."

Hit a new 52-week high today with volume-driven gains for a 4th consecutive session. It survived but failed to impress since noted in the 10/31/08 mid-day report - "Gains with near average volume this week helped it rally to a new all-time high, and it has traded up for 9 consecutive months. Wild whipsaw action in the past few weeks is a sign of uncertainty, and cause for concern. This gas distributing utility company has an unimpressive annual earnings (the A criteria) history, however its recent quarterly comparisons show accelerating sales revenues and earnings."

Considerable volume-driven gain today, blasting to a new 52-week and all-time highs on news it will buy operations from Jacobs Trading for up to $170 Million. It had slumped below its 50 DMA line since last noted in the 8/03/11 mid-day report when hitting its 52-week high -"Its sub par fundamentals are below the investment system guidelines.

Most Recent Note for MNRO - 9/1/2011 12:47:29 PM
Consolidating after spiking to new all-time highs this week with considerable volume-driven gains. No resistance remains due to overhead supply. Prior reports repeatedly noted - "Reported earnings +14% on +4% sales revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 versus the year ago period. Not a good match, fundamentally, with the investment system's winning models. It and similar players in the auto-repair arena have shown recent strength while consumers are fixing their old cars and holding off on new car purchases. Its annual earnings (A criteria) growth rate has been good in recent years. But in 6 of its 8 most recent quarterly earnings comparisons there are blue triangles beside the earnings figure on the chart service used by our experts - which indicates pre-tax, non-recurring items were included (where possible, such items are normally removed to provide data better suited for comparison)."

Stubbornly holding its ground perched at its 52-week high today with no resistance remaining due to overhead supply. It is extended from prior highs in the $11 area that define chart support following a spurt of volume-driven gains. Found support near its 200 DMA during its consolidation since noted in the 3/21/11 mid-day report - "Recent quarterly comparisons show sales revenues and earnings increases but its up and down annual earnings (A criteria) history leaves fundamental concerns."

Quarterly sales revenues and earnings (C criteria) and annual earnings growth (A criteria) history is below the fact-based system's guidelines. Rebounded from below its 50 and 200 DMA lines in the past 2 weeks to within -5.7% of its 52-week high today. Little resistance remains due to overhead supply.

Holding its ground after technically breaking out on 8/30/11 with a considerable volume-driven gain for a new 52-week high. Leadership in the Mining - Gold/Silver/Gems group (L criteria) has helped it rally among numerous other gold mining firms showing recent strength. Its old 52-week high was hit when noted in the 4/29/11 mid-day report - "Recent quarterly comparisons show sales revenues and earnings improvement, but its prior earnings history is below the investment system guidelines."

Perched near its 52-week high following considerable gains this week with above average volume. There was a brief consolidation above prior highs after a "breakaway gap" on 7/29/11. Prior mid-day reports noted - "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."

Considerable gain today has it within close striking distance of its 52-week high. Rebounded in recent weeks from below its 50 DMA and 200 DMA lines after damaging distributional losses in prior weeks. It has not formed a sound base pattern. This Brazilian Oil and Gas - Refining/Marketing firm showed strong sales and earning increases in recent quarterly comparisons versus the year ago period. Its annual earnings (A criteria) growth has steadily improved since a downturn in FY '07.

Hovering near its all-time high, holding its ground above prior highs after a recent streak of 7 consecutive gains. This Pollution Control firm found support at its 200 DMA line during its consolidation since noted in the 7/19/11 mid-day report. Reported earnings +22% on +18% sales revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 versus the year ago period. Prior quarterly comparisons showed earnings increases just above the +25% minimum guideline, but its sales revenues growth was notedly lagging, and its annual earnings (A criteria) track record shows that fundamentals are not strong with respect to the fact-based system's guidelines.
