Ken Deen's THE AGGRESSIVE TRADER(tm) "Seeking double-digit profits in one to four months" Vol. 2, No. 70 April 23, 1993 9:50am New York Time ********** Market Stance: Cautiously Bullish ********** TRADING IDEA ITEMS: (These are NOT buy recommendations. They are merely suggestions for your further research.) DESI(tm) Buy Candidates (The following stock(s) are "day 2" DESI(tm) buy candidates. See Monthly Status Report ("What Is the DESI(tm) System?") for explanation. The DESI(tm) market barometer for day 2 is red.): * Cohu Inc. (AMEX: COH, $26.25) EPS:91, RS:95, GR:70->52, PE:13, Electronic Products-Misc Breakouts (The following stock(s) have excellent sales and earnings growth, and have just broken out from a six-week or longer base.): * EMC Corp. Mass. (NYSE: EMC, $29.00) EPS:87, RS:95, GR:174->194, PE:33, Computer Memory Devices Comment: This is a beautiful breakout from a 3-month consolidation fueled by a beautiful earnings surprise. The company reported yesterday quarterly earnings of 32 cents vs. 13 cents on a 99% gain in revenues. This represents excellent acceleration in both sales and earnings growth. This would be a strong buy recommendation except for one thing: I am paying particular attention to group rotation these days, and it is a negative here. The group is weak and getting weaker. ********** Previous Alert: Vol.2 #69 (April 21, 1993) ********** *** To all who download this newsletter *** On May 1, 1993, this newsletter will be available only for a subscription fee.
