Mo's STOCKS THAT RAKE LIST
Big seventh week listing the best and hottest stocks. A decision
was made to rename the list from 'The Hot Momentum Stock list' to
'Stocks that are Raking list'. This opens the door to stocks that
are not normally categorized as momentum stocks but now to all
stocks that are....raking it.
Why buy stocks that are high? Buy high, sell even higher. The
answer is very obvious. In a bull market, these stocks have shown
conviction. They are proven winners. The best pro football,
basketball, baseball teams pay TOP dollar to play the best players!
They are proven winners and provide the teams with even better
possibilities of winning.
Realtors and top companies pay TOP dollar for the best real
estate because it provides the best opportunity and safety for
growth. Top and the very best strong companies pay TOP dollar for
the best CIO's because they provide the company the TOP
opportunites to win in their industries. In contrast, the local
yokels have been brainwashed since grade school to buy bargins and
things on sale. Those folks are still poor!
Onward to the best stocks today based on PRICE alone!
The list does
not
take into consideration fundamentals, technical analysis, sentiment
or human behavior factors. The listing is
based on factual and demostrated price data (actual price
action)
except for applying a weight factor for stocks that pay
dividends.
The factors that make up the list pertain to the following:
- % of weeks (over 10) in which the stock showed gains (for
example a stock up 10 of 12 weeks is 83.33%)
- Number of weeks that the stock gained in the last four
weeks
- How well the stock has performed in the last two weeks
- % stock share gain since the beginning of the year
- % stock share gain the last four weeks
- A factor is applied for stocks that pay dividends and the %
yield
The listing for this week: The TOP 15 .
-
SHW (Sherman-Williams)
a perfect example. This was a number one stock when we started
the LIST 7 weeks ago. The whispers were that it was too high.
It's now at a new high even with the May stock market downturn.
SHW has painted itself intra-day for yet another new high. SHW
has been the No 1 ranked stock since inception of this list. UP
22 out of 23 straight weeks!
-
HAIN (Hain Celestial).
In a major market downturn, HAIN is hitting intra day highs. The
organic food company was on a tear before Whole Foods reported
blow out earnings. HAIN just continues to tear it up. UP 14 out
of 15 STRAIGHT WEEKS..SERIOUSLY in a down market on top of
that!
- The
Smart Telephone companies
. If you don't own a 'smart phone' you perceived as being out of
it..nothing.. You're considered stale, old meat, not with it. The
two major companies running this, selling the android and iphone
phones in the zillions are
ATT (T) and Verizon (VZ)
and their stock is rocking.
-
MNST (Monster Beverage
). Monster hitting new hights. Up 11 out of last 14 weeks.
-
PETM (PetsMart).
Stock in raging torrid mode. Blasting away to new highs. UP swing
upwards this month.
-
TSCO (Tractor Supply Co
). On track again. Testing recent highs. Up 11 of last 14
weeks.
-
Home Builders (TOL, LEN, DHI).
As we blogged on the last day of April, it's time for home
builders to enter a new phase bull market. A big week for all
these stocks in a very negative down market last week.
-
CHD (Church & Dwight)
New to list. This foggy ole stock just keeps on trucking. UP 10
of last 11 weeks.
-
ATHN (Athenahealth).

stock.

) New this week. Stock up 55% in one month. Up over 400% since
beginning of year.
-

off the list in lieu of a 'stronger' stock
Any stock can be delisted for any reason if a better candidate
comes forward
