Raise Your Stops on Five Positions

Matthew Weinschenk — Thu, 11 Mar 2010 16:20:05 +0000

If you’ve ever doubted the post-earnings drift, you shouldn’t anymore. It’s amazing how such a simple strategy just…works.

Happy birthday to you Happy birthday to you Happy birthday Mr. Bull Market! That’s right. It’s officially been one year since the current market rally started. Yet some pundits still refuse to call it a bull market. Hogwash. Maybe I’m the uber-optimist in the bunch. But on April 8, 2009 I told Investment U readers that the bear [...]

Without further ado, it’s time for another round of Smash Hit or Trash Hit!. You know the drill… The “Smash Hit” companies are ones we feel have an above-average potential for capital appreciation in the weeks and months ahead. The “Trash It” companies are headed nowhere fast. And don’t forget, these are not [...]
