What I’m Watching

I found today’s Chart of the Day by using Barchart’s powerful screening functions to sort for stocks with the highest technical buy signals; superior current momentum in both strength and direction; and a Trend Seeker “buy” signal. I then used Barchart’s Flipcharts feature to review the charts for consistent price appreciation. FTAI checks those boxes. Since the Trend Seeker signaled a new “Buy” on Dec. 30, the stock has gained 45.18%.
