The Chart of the Day is The Crane Company (CR). I found the stock by sorting the New High List for frequency in the last month and then eliminated those stocks not having positive gains in the last month. Although the gains have been spotty there have been reoccurring Trend Spotter buy signals. Since the last one on 12/4 the stock is up 6.10%.
