Will go with DRAD (long) on a wild hair guess for the week.  No idea just what may happen or why.  Just following the insiders.  Are they correct in buying.  Strange action, all bought an even 5000 shares last week.   New CEO has assumed office.

Now that change is made, CGA will probably have a good week.

[Ombud]

AVY popped on my new screen so I'll try that now --- AVY (long). If this beats Benchmark, I'll my old screener and use this one instead

Sorry, I've just forgotten to add my pick for the past couple of weeks.

Long TQQQ.

[clarkrl2]

Long GLP (Global Partners LP - Oil and Gas)

This is the third week for this pick. It is from the earnings beat with recent upward revisions screen.

[Value Buy]

Will go with PJC this week
Piper Jaffary Companies, NYSE, long.

No real reason, just think it might pop this week.
If the markets, are positive.

[architecto25]

   CRY   (long) CryoLife, Inc.
I'm making this quick pick to get it on the contest...otherwise I may not
get one in this week. Having computer problems; disconnected one; plugged
in another, etc., etc. Will add more details later, hopefully.
