The “Chart of the Day” is Kubota Corp (KUB), which showed up on Wednesday’s Barchart “NYSE 12-month High” list. Kubota on Wednesday closed 0.24% higher and edged to a new 1-year high of $50.07. A rally above the current 4-year high of 51.08 posted in Jan 2010 would be a particularly bullish technical development. TrendSpotter has been long Kubota since Nov 5 at $47.16. Kubota Corp, with a market cap of $12.7 billion, is the world’s largest maker of small tractors and Japan’s second largest manufacturer of farm equipment.
How we found the Chart of the Day:
We found the “Chart of the Day” by scanning the Barchart “New Highs/Lows” page. Then we clicked on the entry for NYSE 12-month highs. A new 12-month high is a popular sign of upside momentum. We then clicked on the “12-Month # Highs” column heading twice in order to sort the list in ascending order. Stocks with the fewest number of 12-month highs over the past 12 months are stocks that have only recently broken out to a new 12-month high and may have better upside potential then stocks that have already rallied sharply and have posted many new 12-month highs.
