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 CANSLIM.net's experts have recently identified as among the most strong CANSLIM-based buy 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 with O'Neil's guidelines in the book "How to Make Money in Stocks".

Consolidating -8.5% off its 52-week high today, above support at its 50 DMA line and prior highs in the $23 area. Reported earnings +27% on +10% sales revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 versus the year ago period.

Recently found support near its 50 DMA line, and trading within -3.7% of its 52-week high today. Reported earnings +21% on +15% sales revenues for the Mar '12 quarter, continuing to show signs of earnings growth rate deceleration. Downturn in FY '09 earnings (A criteria) is a flaw.

Very little overhead supply remains to act as resistance up through the $24 area. Prior mid-day reports noted - "Its earnings history has been strong, but the lack of sales revenues growth raises concerns that there is not great or growing demand for a new (N criteria) product or services."

Perched near its 52-week high today. When trying to rally from a "double bottom" base pattern the 5/29/12 mid-day report noted - "Reported earnings +0% on +21% sales revenues for the Mar '12 quarter.

Hitting another new 52-week today with another volume-driven gain following a considerable gap up from below its 50 DMA line. A downturn in FY '11 is a flaw concerning the A criteria.
