The "Chart of the Day" is Ingersoll-Rand (IR), which showed up on Thursday's Barchart "NYSE 12-month High" list. Ingersoll-Rand on Thursday posted a new 3-1/4 year high but then faded to close only 1.25% higher. The stock may need to correct a bit lower to fill Thursday's gap, but a rally to a new high could be considered a bullish trigger. TrendSpotter has been Long Ingersoll-Rand since March 24 at $48.00. Yesterday's rally was sparked by the company's announcement of an increase in the quarterly dividend by 71% to 12 cents per share and by the board's authorization of a $2 billion share repurchase program. Ingersoll-Rand, with a market cap of $15.8 billion, is one of the leading providers of security and safety, climate control, industrial productivity and infrastructure products.
