Double Trouble

February 28, 2007

Market bounced back after yesterdays carnage. The market will take some time to reveal its intended direction. In the meanwhile earnings based breakouts had a good day today. In most circumstances a good earnings always creates excitement. Those who understand the earnings game are quick to jump on such opportunities.

Stock in the Focus



Amerisafe Inc is a 2006 IPO. It has been up over 113% in last 260 days. The stock broke out few days after earnings in November. Stock has had 5 quarters of triple digit earnings growth. My research shows Episodic Pivots on young companies have high probability of success if backed by earnings.
