The Travelers Companies (TRV) is the Barchart Chart of the Day.  The P&C insurance carrier has a Trend Spotter buy signal, a Weighted Alpha of 12.10+ , gained 5.57% in the last year while paying a 2.11% dividend.

The Chart of the Day is The Travelers Companies (TRV).  I found the P&C insurance stock by using Barchart to sort today's All Time High list first for the most frequent new highs in the last month, then again for technical buy signals of 80% or better.  Since the Trend Spotter signaled a buy on 2/22 the stock gained 6.14%.
