5 Mid Caps For Momentum Investors – Wednesday, April 19

Today I wanted to find 5 Mid Cap stocks that would be of interest to Momentum Investors. I used Barchart to sort the S&P 400 Mid Cap Index stocks first for the most frequent number of new highs in the last month, then again for technical buy signals of 80% or more. It just so happened that the best 5 were all REITs.  

Today’s Watch List includes: Healthcare Realty Trusts (HR), Omega Healthcare Investors (OHI), Duke Realty (DRE), Medical Properties Trust (MPW) and Senior Housing Properties Trust (SNH).
