The Chart of the Day belongs to National Presto Industries (NPK). I found the industrial goods stock by using Barchart to sort the Russell 3000 Index stocks first for the highest Weighted Alpha then for technical buy signals of 80% or better. Since the Trend Spotter signaled a buy on 9/8 the stock gained 7.71%.
