EB Watch List Update Report
Dear Members,
KEY EARNINGS REPORTS:
Thursday: GPN, MU, SCHN
Friday: AZZ, KMX
MARKET NOTE:
Money continues to rotate away from aggressive areas of the market and that's a negative development for the sustainability of the attempted 2014 rally. Be careful and please consider keeping stops in place.
ADDITIONS TO WATCH LISTS:
There are no additions to our Watch Lists today.
BRIEF COMMENTS ON SELECT WATCH LIST STOCKS:
Short Watch List:
No new comments at this time.
Large Cap Watch List:
CAT - Remains one of the best performing stocks in the market.
COO - Fractional loss today a reminder what a great relative performer that COO has been.
FFIV - Failed at key moving average resistance and turning lower today. 102-106 remains a solid price support level.
MCO - Yesterday's advance to 83.30, just shy of our 84.00 Target Price, is now a distant memory as selling takes over. Back and forth whipsaw action highlights this stock in the 77-84 trading range.
ROC - Not falling much from 20 day EMA resistance, a good sign. But we still need to see a close above 75.50 for the chart to become more short-term bullish.
TEL - Breakout yesterday confirmed with heavy volume. MACD solid too so consider entry on any 20 day EMA test.
UA - Heavy volume selloff helping us close in on Initial Entry at 109.18.
VIPS - Rough day, but thus far bouncing off 20 day EMA support - not bad technically, just volatile.
Mid Cap Watch List:
ATK - Very strong price action with strengthening momentum - a very solid candidate lately given the whipsaw market conditions.
YY - Volatility running supreme here. In four short days, YY has been up more than 10% and is now back beneath our Initial Entry price. For anyone who profited, re-entry from the current price down to 70.00 is not a bad strategy. Clearly, however, you need to be able to tolerate significant risk and price fluctuation.
Small Cap Watch List:
PLOW - Down a little more than 1% on light volume. The combination of 20 day EMA support and price support should be expected to hold the bears at bay.
DELETIONS FROM OUR WATCH LISTS:
There are no deletions today unless Closing Stops are violated.
Happy trading!
