More "Aggressive" Earnings Plays for April 13 - 23:

The companies below have EPS growth in excess of 50%
more than last year same quarter.ÿ Their velocity
is the top 90% percentile and their accleration is
as well.ÿ They have strong chart patterns and could
give good gains around earnings time.ÿ Their risk is
higher than usual but their reward is likewise very
high. Some of these will be daytrades and some of
these can be held 2-3 days.ÿÿ I will call them when
and IF they become BUYS and our goal is 1+
gain after entry.

Difference between VELOCITY and ACCELERATION

VELOCITY: Measures the increase or decrease in
earnings of the last qtr compared with the same
qtr a yr ago, divided by the current stock price.

ACCELERATION: Here you do compare consecutive quarters.
As a general rule, it's good to see EPS growth
accelerate over at least the two most recent quarters.
In fact, the more quarters that the growth rate speeds
up, the better.

For earnings we are more concerned with VELOCITY
than ACCELERATION, since we measure the percentage
pershare growth rate for a given quarter vs. the
same quarter a yar ago. Don't base a quarter
's percentage growth rate on the previous quarter.
Seasonal effects can distort the result.
