Of 2,373 stocks and exchange-traded funds in this week's analytical universe, 59 that are traded on the major American stock exchanges broke beyond their 20-day price channels, 46 to the upside and 13 to the downside.
Four symbols traded over the counter broke out, three to the upside and one to the downside.
Fourteen symbols traded on the major exchanges survived my initial screening, all having broken out to the upside. They are AF, ARMH, CY, ENS, ENV, FLIR, GILD, HLF, MUR, NUS, NXST, PBYI, SNHY and SYA.
One symbols traded over the counter, CRRFY, survived initial screening, having broken out to the upside.
I shall do further analysis on Monday, Nov. 25.
Methodology
The symbols I'm analyzing are mid- and large-cap stocks having analyst coverage, as well as selected exchange-traded funds. I screened them for...
- an average yield of 3% or greater when adjusted for the odds of a successful trades in the direction of the breakout since the uptrend from October 2011 on the S&P 500 chart began to falter, on May 22, 2013, calculated as average yield multiplied by the odds,
- and absence of an earnings announcement within the next 30 days.
