The stock broke out on June 24th and remains just outside of a proper buy range.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Lufkin Industries (LUFK):<\/strong> The stock of Lufkin, an oil equipment company, continues to soar to new heights as earnings and sales growth continues to accelerate.<\/li>\n<li><strong>ATMI Inc (ATMI):<\/strong> Semis have done well recently and ATMI is no exception &#8211; looks outstanding technically, but well above a proper buy range.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ametek (AME):<\/strong> Ametek, a global manufacturer of electronic instruments and electric motors, has been tracking along the 50 day moving average for 2 years and looks ready to bust out to big gains from a base at any moment.&nbsp; Perhaps tomorrow&#8217;s earnings report will be that catalyst.&nbsp; The stock currently sits in a buyable range.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Astec Industries (ASTE):<\/strong> Designer, engineer and manufacturer of equipment and components used primarily in road building and related construction activities.&nbsp; Astec is currently working on a base on base pattern after orginially breaking out in March.&nbsp; The technicals are a bit suspect.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Labor Ready (LRW):<\/strong> Capitalizing on the improving job market, this is a stock that continues to soar to new heights and well out of a proper buy range.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Symyx Technologies (SMMX):<\/strong> A provider of research services and high throughput experimentation for the discovery of innovative materials, has experienced record growth over the past year and is currently forming the handle of a long base.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Another busy day tomorrow for earnings and my list of notable earnings continues to grow!.. so I&#8217;ll break it up into two posts once again (before and after the bell).&nbsp;
