Servisfirst Bancshares - Chart of the Day

Servisfirst Bancshares (SFBS) is the Barchart Chart of the Day.  The Alabama saving bank has a Trend Spotter buy signal, a Weighted Alpha of 55.00+ and gained 49.30% in the last year.

The Chart of the Day belongs to Servifirst Bancshares (SFBS).  I found the southeastern savings bank by using Barchart to sort the Russell 3000 Index stocks first for a Weighted Alpha of 50.00+ or more, then again for technical buy signals of 80% or better, then for a 50-100 Day MACD Oscillator buy signal.  That filtered 3000 stocks down to 54.  Since the Trend Spotter signaled a buy on 10/20 the stock gained 6.38%
