Thursday’s Top Names

We are now in oversold
territory, and are due for a pause in the form of a counter trend rally.

This is evidenced by the CVR III on the

and the others from

Larry Connors’ VIX and Volatility service
. Therefore, keep an eye on the
long side candidates, but be prepared to play it the other way should the need
arise.
