The “Chart of the Day” is Cosan Ltd (CZZ), which showed up on Wednesday’s list of stocks that had a new “Buy” signal from the Barchart Trendspotter(tm) trading system. Cosan on Wednesday rallied sharply by 4.36% and posted a new 1-month high. A rally above the 2-year high of $11.46 posted a month ago on Aug 2 would be a particularly bullish signal. Cosan on Wednesday rallied due to the 3.75% rally in Oct sugar futures (SBV0). The nearby chart shows an overlay of Cosan and Oct sugar futures prices and illustrates the fairly strong influence that sugar prices have on Cosan’s stock price. Cosan, with a market cap of $1.8 billion, is based in Brazil and is one of the world’s largest producers of sugar and sugar-based ethanol.
