MGM $12.06

MGM has been trending sideways since falling from a peak high of $16.66 in late April. The price hit a swing low of $10.82 on June 8.

Today's rise in price and volume was accompanied by a phase switch to bull on both the macd and Person's Proprietary Signal.

Longer term, MGM has been hammered by the collapse of finance and the subsequent recession. It reached a high of $100.50 in October 2007, and fell to a low of $1.81 in March 2009. So this stock, like many, is digging out of a very deep hole.
