Heska - Chart of the Day

Heska (HSKA) is the Barchart Chart of the Day.  The animal pharmaceutical company has a Trend Spotter buy signal, a Weighted Alpha of 111.60+ and gained 119.43% in the last year.

The Chart of the Day is Heska (HSKA).  I found the animal pharmaceutical stock by using Barchart to sort the Russell 3000 Index stocks first by a Weighted Alpha of 50.00+ or more then by technical buy signals of 80.00% or better.  I always view the charts using the Flipchart feature.

Heska Corporation is focused on the discovery, development and marketing of companion animal health products. In addition to manufacturing certain of companion animal products, the company's primary manufacturing subsidiary, Diamond Animal Health, Inc., also manufactures animal health vaccine products which are marketed and distributed by third parties. In addition to manufacturing veterinary allergy products for marketing and sale by the company, subsidiaries, Center Laboratories, Inc. and CMG-Heska Allergy Products S.A., also manufacture and sell human allergy products.
