5 Mid Cap Stars

Even though the majority of the stock in the S&P 400 Mid Cap Index are trading below their 20, 50 and 100 day moving averages there are still some that seem to be trading near their highs.  I used Barchart to sort the stocks in the Index for the best technical buy signals, then used the Flipchart feature to review the charts.

Today's list for Stock Picks includes HSN Inc (HSNI), Domino's Pizza (DPZ), Rent-A-Center (RCII), Panera Bread (PNRA) and Landstar Systems (LSTR):
