Hi Bob,

yes, the EPS ranking, which compares against all companies earnings growth
rate, does give extra weight to recent earnings. I am surprised that it is
still receiving a 92 since the latest qtr was also only a 5% growth. It
enjoyed easy comparisons during 2001, so the %age growth Y2Y were mostly
respectable, but when viewed sequentially, they face difficult comparisons
during 2002 unless they have a hidden reserve to increase growth
significantly.

Tom:

It does seem that recent earnings and projected earnings year over year are
not up to standards for CANSLIM.  Q: How does this stock get a 92 for EPS
from the IBD tables?  Does the EPS rating weigh the 3-5 year earnings growth
more heavily than recent earnings growth?
