The Chart of the Day belongs to Hormel Foods (HRL). I found the meat products stock by using Barchart to sort the Russell 3000 Index stocks first for the highest number of new highs in the last month, then I reviewed the chart using the Flipchart feature. Since the Trend Spotter signaled a buy on 8/28 the stock gained 25.59%.
