Y - Churning near its 52-week and all-time high, making limited price progress in recent weeks. Its Relative Strength line has led the way into new high territory recently, which is recognized as a positive characteristic in buy candidates. Support to watch is at its closely coinciding 50 and 200 DMA lines. Subsequent violations would trigger damaging technical sell signals.

Still hovering near its 52-week high. Its Relative Strength line has been leading the way into new high territory, which is recognized as a positive characteristic in buy candidates. Held its ground while enduring mild distributional pressure since noted in prior mid-day reports - "Quarterly comparisons have shown sub par earnings increases in the June and September 2011 quarterly comparisons versus the year ago period(s). Downturn in FY '08 earnings is a flaw concerning the A criteria."

Stalled after hitting a new 52-week high last week. Meanwhile, no overhead supply remains to act as resistance. Reported earnings +71% on +22% sales for the quarter ended October 31, 2011 versus the year ago period. Found support near its 50 and 200 DMA lines when consolidating since noted in the 11/11/11 mid-day report - "The 2 latest quarterly comparisons (Apr and Jul '11) showed better sales revenues and earnings increases but prior quarters and its annual earnings (A criteria) history fall short of the fact-based investment system's guidelines. Low-priced stocks are considered riskier candidates and typically should be avoided unless all key criteria are solidly satisfied."

Still perched near its 52 week high. Found support near its 50 DMA line during its recent consolidation, and prior mid-day reports noted - "No resistance remains due to overhead supply. Reported earnings +14% on +13% sales revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2011, down after recent comparisons showing encouraging sales revenues acceleration with better than +25% earnings increases. Its annual earnings (A criteria) history has been up and down."

Down today after a "negative reversal" at an all-time high on the prior session which broke a streak of 4 consecutive small gains with above average volume. Prior mid-day reports repeatedly noted - "Found support above prior highs and its 50 DMA line when consolidating since rallying above prior resistance in the $21 area. Sales and earnings increases in the Sep '11 quarter improved, but its prior history has been below the fact-based investment system's guidelines."

Insider buying reported in recent weeks is an encouraging sign. It had surged with volume-driven gains, but it stalled then wedged to new highs since last noted in the 11/30/11 mid-day report - "The June and September '11 quarters showed great sales revenues increases and earnings versus year ago losses. Years of ongoing operating losses make it not a match with the investment system's guidelines."

Small gap down today following a "negative reversal" after touching a new 52-week high on the prior session. Prior mid-day reports noted - "Perched at its 52-week high today, holding its ground stubbornly and inching higher since a breakaway gap on 11/08/11 from a deep cup shaped base. Following several years of operating losses (bad A criteria) it has shown strong sales revenues increases and produced solid earnings versus year-ago losses for the quarterly comparisons in Mar, Jun, and Sep '11.

This MLP is still holding its ground following a negative reversal on 12/07/11 after hitting a new 52-week and all-time high. Its shares split 3:1 on 12/05/11. Earnings improved in the Jun and Sep '11 comparisons, but prior history has been sub par. It rebounded from below its 50 and 200 DMA lines and steadily climbed since noted in the 9/06/11 mid-day report - "Quarterly and annual earnings growth (C and A criteria) have been below the fact-based investment system's guidelines."

A "negative reversal" marked its all-time high on 11/16/11, and it has not formed a sound looking base pattern. The 11/01/11 mid-day report noted - "Its choppy 4-week consolidation is not considered to be a sound base pattern. Limited history is a concern, and it is up considerably from its $10 IPO on 7/27/11."
