5 Mid Cap Picks

Just a little comment:  Don't try to over think your investments.  No matter how hard you try you will never have that perfect portfolio.  Your goal should be easy to understand and simple to execute.  There are about 12,000 investable stocks, all you need to do is to find 8 to 20 stocks that are on the right side of the market and trading above their moving averages.  Buy those that are and get rid of the ones that aren't.   Kind of like the Lake Wobegon effect:  All my stocks are just slightly above average.

Today's picks were found by taking the S & P 400 Mid Cap index and sorting for those with the best Barchart technical indicators and charts.  The list today includes some of the stocks that appeared in previous lists but still have upward momentum.  The list includes Aqua America (WTR), Wendy's (WEN), ValueClick (VCLK), United Therapeutics (UTHR) and Teleflex (TFX):
