Today I wanted to find 5 Mid Cap Stocks that might be of interest to Momentum Investors so I used Barchart to sort the S&P 400 Mid Cap Index stocks first for the most frequent number of new highs in the past month, then again for technical buy signals of 80% or more. Today’s Watch List includes:
Align Technology (ALGN), Teleflex (TFX), Maximus (MMS), Black Hills (BKH) and Great Plains Energy (GXP).
