81 Stock Returning 9%+ this Week

Despite the indexes not showing much action, a lot of churning under the surface as risk taking appetite appeared to increase, and many stocks shunned for 2 months were favored by the speculative set - showcased by moves back into some high beta technology, Chinese stocks, and solar. A big push back into smaller types of companies as this list is heavily weighted with stocks in the $2-$3B market capitalization range. I continue to find it interesting to see when the solar stocks move, they move en masse - without any differentiation - which makes this group still seem risky to me - there cannot be 100 winners in solar but they are treated all the same 90% of the time - either they are all "bad" or "good", depending on the mood of the market. This would highlight investors clearly have no way to determine the ultimate winners or losers in this group so they run up (or sell off) everything together. Last, the "commodities are dead" trade that was so popular last week, lasted all of 3 days - as it was reversed this week.

One group that caught my eye that has been dead for a long time are the land based US focused driller - Nabors, Patterson-UTI, et al. These have struggled for a long time but finally broke out this week, perhaps on the strength of the natural gas trade.

As always, criteria for the list below

1. Market cap >$2B
2. Stock price $10+
3. Average volume 100K+
4. Return 9%+
