Rebounding today after a damaging loss on heavy volume on the prior session led to a pullback near its 50 DMA line. Last noted in the 12/09/11 mid-day report when this pharmaceuticals firm was hovering near its 52-week high -"Volume totals have been cooling while holding its ground stubbornly above prior highs after a spurt of volume-driven gains helped this low-priced stock clear a 4-week consolidation. Recent quarterly comparisons show strong sales revenues and earnings increases, however it does not have a strong annual earnings history (A criteria not satisfied) matching the models of past great winners identified using the fact-based investment system."

Gapped up today, htting another new 52-week high with its 5th consecutive gain. 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."

Down slightly today after prior session's loss broke a streak of 10 consecutive small gains backed by above average volume. Prior mid-day reports noted - "Rallied to new all-time high territory with a recent spurt of volume-driven gains. Technically, it broke out with a considerable gain on 10/27/11. Quarterly earnings increases have been mostly strong and backed by solid sales revenues increases, but the -16% earnings in its Jun '11 quarter is a flaw concerning the C criteria. This Luxembourg-based Financial Services firm's small supply (S criteria) of only 16.2 million shares in the public float can contribute to greater volatility in the event of institutional buying or selling. ASPS was dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 10/07/10 then violated its 200 DMA with a streak of volume-driven losses, and it subsequently rebounded back above its 200 DMA and 50 DMA lines."

Touched another new 52-week high today while on track for its 12th gain in the span of 14 sessions. This low-priced Medical - Products firm has steadily worked its way higher with above average volume behind its small gains, and it stubbornly held its ground while repeatedly noted in prior mid-day reports- "Sales revenues increases showed modest acceleration in recent quarterly comparisons while earnings improved. Annual earnings (A criteria) history has not been strong and steady. Low-priced stocks are discouraged from consideration as buy candidates under the fact-based system unless all key criteria are solidly satisfied."

Little resistance remains due to overhead supply while approaching its 52-week and all-time high today, on track for a 5th consecutive gain. A lack of leadership (L criteria) in the Transportation - Logistics group is a concern while it is working on the right side of a 24-week cup shaped base pattern. Its quarterly and annual earnings increases have been strong, satisfying the C and A criteria. Ownership by top-rated funds rose from 86 in Dec '10 to 117 in Sep '11, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria.

Rebounding toward its 52-week and all-time high with a recent spurt of small gains backed by above average volume. Found support near its 50 DMA line since completing a new Public Offering on 12/01/11. It was perched near its all-time high when noted in the 11/18/11 mid-day report after a near 7-month flat base - "This REIT's recent quarterly comparisons showed greatly improved sales revenues and earnings up from minuscule year-ago numbers."

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."

It has not formed a sound looking base pattern, yet touched a new 52-week high today with above average volume behind a 5th consecutive gain. Recent quarterly comparisons showed strong sales revenues and earnings increases, however prior mid-day reports noted - "Limited history is a concern, and it is up considerably from its $10 IPO on 7/27/11."
