3 Small Caps on the Move Up

An over looked sector of the market is small caps.  I'm not talking about those 10,000 pink sheet microcaps that are so small you've never heard of them but those stocks that are traded on the national exchanges and sometimes go unnoticed.  This morning I used the Barchart screener on the S & P 600 Small Cap Index stocks to find a few good stocks that are still having upward momentum.  I found Jack in the Box (JACK), Hanger Orthopedics (HGR) and Cambrex (CBM).
