Monday’s Top Names
The indices slid a little bit
into the close on Friday, but still appear to be in good shape.
Another factor is the amount of stocks moving from
the low RS list to the high RS list is increasing, which is normally a signal
things are starting to improve. Keep the first focus on the long side, and be
ready with the few stock still showing weakness if the sellers come in.
