The short term investing stock picks blog

Cameron International Corp (NYSE: CAM) is making a great technical move today.  If we review the P&F chart of the stock we see that today ushered in a Triple Top Breakout.  Reviewing the daily candlestick chart graphs, we see that Cameron sprang through the $50-$50.20 resistance on what may end up as 2X volume today after regaining its 50-day moving average on over 2X volume yesterday.  This may be a good technical swing using the former resistance of $50 as your stop.  This is a top CANSLIM pick which will reach an IBD buy point around $54 as it hits new highs some 10 weeks after beginning to pull back.  In this market take profits as soon as you can, but I like a run to $60 if it can clear the IBD buy point.  Scared its just running with oil?  CAM has outperformed its "Google peers" with the exception of FTI (which is up only on a $1 billion contact they just got) the past three days.

Cameron International Corporation provides flow equipment products, systems, and services to oil, gas, and process industries worldwide. The company’s Drilling and Production Systems segment provides systems and equipment to control pressures and direct flows of oil and gas wells.

There were a ton of haters out there when I did some 13-F analysis of stock holdings and noted a pretty strong movement into Yum Brands (NYSE: YUM) and no movement out last quarter.  Admittedly, the stock languished and sank, but if you held on, it will pay dividends.  If you bought in right at the close on the day I posted, you probably paid around $33.75.  Today, YUM closed at $36.29, up about 7.5% in the past 3 months.  Hopefully, with just reported earnings that killed it, YUM will open above $37 tomorrow and hit $40 by the end of the year for a 6-month return of around 20%.

I’ve recently lauded Zecco on the blog and have done so to many, many people in emails, so I wanted to share with many of you that Zecco is now opening trading accounts with no minimum balance.

This really takes away and excuse for not trying out the ZERO commissions stock broker.

Also, more importantly, I believe that this opens up Zecco to a whole new realm of both new and young investors.  Kudos to you Zecco.
