The 5 Best Small Caps

Today I wanted to find the 5 best small cap stocks that met my criteria.  I used Barchart to sort the S&P 600 Small Cap Index stocks first for a Weighted Alpha of 50.00+ or more, then for technical buy signals of 80% or better and lastly for a 50-100 Day MACD Oscillator buy signal.  That filtered the 600 stock down to just 11Cash Am.  The list included Exlservice Holdings (EXLS), Boyd Gaming (BYD), Cash America International (CSH), Aceto (ACET) and John Bean Technologies (JBT).
