5 Mid Caps For Momentum Investors

One of the best ways Momentum investors can find stocks before others do is to screen for short term momentum signals. Today I used Barchart to sort the S&P 400 Mid Cap Index stock first for the most number of new highs in the last month, then again for a Trend Spotter buy signal. Next I used the Flipchart feature to review the charts.

Today's list includes: Copart (Nasdaq: CPRT), Telephone and Data Systems (NYSE: TDS), Alexandria Real Estate Equities (NYSE: ARE), NCR Corp (NYSE: NCR) and Corporate Office Properties (NYSE: OFC).
