This Friday’s screens had 15 buys and 9 sells. That compares with the previous Friday’s 50 buys and 16 sells, a solid precursor to last week’s rally.
1439 stocks met the initial screening criteria in the current screen. Only 1.7% of them rendered signals on Friday, which is far below the normal 3-5%. Only 1% of the stocks that met the minimum criteria had buy signals. That could mean that the move is already exhausted.
I’m making no new additions to the list this week, either long or short. Last week, I added just one long. Everything else on the list was short, leading to a bad week. Including picks that were stopped out, and those still open, the list ended the week with an average gain of just 3.1% on a 15 calendar day average holding period. That compared with the previous week’s average gain of +8.1% with an average holding period of 18 days.
The list will now have 8 open picks, of which just one is a long, and the rest are shorts. I’ve added stops to all of the shorts, in case they don’t roll over again.
The table and charts of open picks are below (subscriber version only).
