5 PowerRatings Stocks for the Next 5 Days: KO, AAPL, CME, MCD, GOOG
Often, many of the highest PowerRatings stocks do not arrive with the greatest public relations. Despite their ability to outperform the average stock by margins of as much as 14 to 1 after five days, many of these stocks are relatively unknown to the investing and trading public. Every now and then, I’m surprised to see among the 8s, 9s or 10s a company that I didn’t even know was publicly traded!
Little chance of that in today’s 5 PowerRatings Stocks for the Next 5 Days column. With a number of high profile stocks having rallied above and now in the process of pulling back toward their 200-day moving averages, some of the stocks that are perennially in demand are now on sale.
The first three have PowerRatings of 8. Recall that stocks with PowerRatings of 8 have outperformed the average stock by a margin of more than 6 to 1 after five days.

PowerRating) lost more than 1.5% on Wednesday, but has not yet broken down below its short-term trading range. Further declines — including a breakdown from the range — may be what it takes to get CME’s 7 rating to 8 or higher.

The next two stocks have PowerRatings of 7. 7-rated stocks, although beating the average stock by a margin of 3 to 1 after five days, have been outperformed by higher rated stocks (the 8s, 9s, and 10s). But because they are among the most widely owned U.S. stocks, I thought it would be worth our while to start paying attention to them now in the event that they pull back further and, potentially, earn PowerRatings upgrades.
