The Chart of the Day belongs to Spire (SR). I found the natural gas utility stock by using Barchart to sort today's All Time High list first for the highest number of new highs in the last month, then again for technical buy signals of 80% or more. Next I used the Flipchart feature to review the charts for consistency.
