21 Stocks Returning 8% this Week

As discussed in the weekly fund performance post, this week was deceiving - the market ended flat due to miraculous buying in the last 30 minutes, but the underlying action was quite poor. This is showcased by the low number of big winners this week. I count only 21 names which returned 8%+ this week which is more apt for weeks the market is down 3-4%. Coal and fertilizer continue to dominate this list.

Criteria as always

1. Market capitalization $2B+
2. Average trading volume 100K+
3. Stock price $10+
4. Returns 8%+
