In its daily report, BullMarket.com wrote: "The stocks of for-profit education companies got a boost last week when the U.S. Department of Education was reported to have issued draft rules related to completion rates for students that appear to be less strict than the industry feared. The DOE has been trying to address concerns that some for-profit schools charge too much money without providing adequate training for students to land decent jobs.

"Failing to have a high-enough percentage of graduates find 'gainful employment' would prevent school operators from participating in federal student loan guarantee programs. According to reports, the draft rules, which have not been made public, would exempt schools that graduate 50% of their students. Seventy percent of graduates would also have to find relevant jobs. Previous drafts had put the required graduation rate at 70%."

BullMarket.com looked at the following topics, among others:

-- Industry leader Apollo Group is retooling to focus on four-year students and the stock appears undervalued, but is it worth buying?

-- Strayer Education has traditionally commanded a rich premium, but what has to happen for it retain that valuation?

--Can Bridgepoint Education's low cost, online-oriented business model continue to propel the stock higher after a strong run since early February?

-- Will DeVry continue to prosper when the Department of Education finalizes new student loan guidelines?

-- Why might the finalization of state education budgets in late May and early June create an opportunity to open positions in Archipelago Learning?
