Clearstation promotes a three-point approach; you can make stock picks from their technical analysis, fundamental analysis or community.

Not Ready to Toss in the Towel (Just Yet)

May 23, 2011

Current market conditions seem bleak. I am under preforming the S& P YTD for the first time in memory.  I am less pessimistic than the street (this is a rarity and could change if we don’t see some bounce this week).  I sense more of a shift in leadership groups coming than a big move [...]

Still Range Bound (Yawn)

September 3, 2010

From 9/2 For the last year we have spent the majority of trading days range bound (1040-1125). The market had a successful bounce off the 1040 area Monday. And that is a positive.

Perrigo, Chi Ching

April 29, 2010

PRGO previously recommended in our March 8th post at 49.99 traded at an all-time high today of 64.59 closing at 63.47, as third quarter profits rose 33 percent. This price is well above our short-term objective of 62.  Chief Executive Joseph C. Papa said all the company’s segments performed above expectations, and he noted that [...]
