3. Annual earnings for he last three years should be increasing at a rate of 25 percent per year or even more
4. Sales should be up 25 percent or more in one or more recent quarters or at least accelerating in thier percentage change for the last three quarters.
5. The after -tax profit margin in the most recent quarter should either at least close to a new high and among the very best in the company's industry.
6. Return on equity should 15 to 17 percent or higher.
