Every single day, almost no matter how bad the indices perform, there is money being made in the market. What's the difference between a little known stock like Joshua Tree, up over 200% Thursday, and Vectoria (OTCBB:VTOR) which was neutral, but may be preparing to rise? How do you go about finding stocks that rise in falling markets and, from time to time, one that flies? The professionals say the trick is uncovering stocks with increasing volume.
The fastest way to track up and down plays based on volume is to visit Investors Business Daily's www.investors.com Website. Featured on investors.com's home page and continuously updated throughout the day, a list called "Where The Big Money's Flowing Now" showcases stocks with unusually high trading volume.
Where The Big Money's Flowing Now is different from the standard 'Most Active' lists and screens inflows as well as outflows, such as Thursday's list including ESS Technology, Inc. (Nasdaq:ESST), Genesis Microchip Inc. (Nasdaq:GNSS) and Shire Pharmaceuticals plc (Nasdaq:SHPGY).
Where The Big Money's Flowing Now compares a stock's current volume to its last 50 trading days, and alerts investors to new investment opportunities. Where The Big Money's Flowing Now is one of the few ways to quickly spot -- and act upon -- those stocks that major institutional investors are backing -- or backing out of.
Also shown are the IBD SmartSelect(r) Corporate Ratings -- five proprietary ratings that are the most predictive measures of a stock's future price movement. With these ratings, investors have the power to evaluate the fundamental strengths and weaknesses of stocks instantly, narrowing choices to only the strongest companies in the strongest industries.
