Other Picks

My pick for today (PMI) is currently sitting at -4.3% — I haven’t sold it yet as it looks like it could break through Monday and it seems to have some support where it is.

But this post isn’t about PMI but about the other picks my screener selected yesterday.  It actually selected 22 other stocks as possibilities for today and some of those did really well. The following stock picks by my screener had gains of 5% or higher today:

CEGE: +7%
DAN: +20%
MPG: +21.5%
LEA: +8.9%
FCH: +8.5%
CSE: +30.1%
DPTR: +29.9%
DDR: +14.4%
FR: +7.8%
CBL: +15.4%
URE: +17.9%
NCS: +14.4%
MGM: +48.1%

Obviously I’m kicking myself over my selection of PMI over these other picks (particularly MGM!) I didn’t really put enough thought into my screen of my screener (where I choose the best looking pick out of the stocks my screen has picked.) What I’m going to be looking into now is there were clues that I missed which would have told me that one of these picks would have been superior to PMI.
