<<ALERT>>buy signal triggered for #8 EP 4/21, notice how earnings plays buck the trend even nasdaq ones. Buy signal #8 4/20 EP, I was asked about this one last week and I considered it and now it looks like it has bottomed and right before the earnings report which could presage things to come.

BVSN..USWB, USG,TYC,EMC What a divergence between dow & nasdaq This must be a record. Almost every NYSE stock that is an earnings play has popped. USG, DCN pops big time.. the earnings plays are very strong today, LXK was up 4 in the morning but profit takers set in.. USWB..looking pretty strong considering the rest of the sector. BVSN, still holding could have gotten out this morning with a gain but decided to stay in this one.
