Jim,

	If you have access to the data, try to look at the amount of the jump
in the earnings expectation.  Like I said in the previous post, this is
often a predictor of stocks that are going to become strong buy
situations.  For instance, in Zack's you can search for all the stocks
that have had their earnings estimates raised in the past month.  Then
back check the new estimates with those of the previous month.  If their
is a significant jump upward in the estimate, then it is worth a look. 
I run this using Zacks Research Marvel.
