Long DF (Dean Foods - Dairy Products)

From the revised earnings beat MRQ with recent upward estimate revisions screen. Last week's pick AEO was overbought on the daily chart. Here is the weekly chart for DF stockcharts.com/h-sc/ui?s=DF&p=W&b=5&g=0&id=p47114436918

[Value Buy]

So many choices this week!
I so want to short my nemesis, CMG, but they may have bottomed on Friday on expected earnings this week.
This leaves me with Dnkn or Swift Transportation as potential movers...........
But I think I will go with another stock I hate, which just might have things turned around.
General Electric, GE, and go long.

[kadee79]

Going to try a new one for me...

DRD, long....Medical Facilities Corp.

Congrats to last weeks winners!

CONGRATULATIONS tp uncle for taking Place this week in a very close finish.  I was very surprised with ST's last 3 days, but always glad to bring home a winner.  BenchMark kept Ombud from a Show close and in the also-ran group

[Ombud]

Congrats ModE98 & uncle23! Yep, Benchmark is beating me again
