The "Chart of the Day" is MasterCard (MA), which showed up on Thursday's list of stocks that had a new "Buy" signal from the Barchart "TrendSpotter" trading system. MasterCard on Thursday rallied by 7.80% and continued to snap-back from Monday's 1-1/2 month low. A rally above last week's record high of $340.42 would be a particularly bullish technical signal. In recent news on the stock, MasterCard on Aug 3 reported Q2 EPS of $4.76, well above the consensus of $4.22, and that caused several Wall Street banks to reiterate their Buy recommendations and raise their price targets. MasterCard, with a market cap of $41 billion, is one of the world's largest credit card and payment processing companies.
