The Chart of the Day is PolyOne Corp (POL). I found the stock by sorting the All Time High list, skipped the stocks that didn’t have positive gains for the last week and month. I used the Flipchart feature to review the charts. Since the Trend Spotter signaled a buy on 1/29 the stock gained 6.17%.
POL is an international polymer services company with operations in thermoplastic compounds, specialty resins, specialty polymer formulations, engineered films, color and additive systems, elastomer compounding and thermoplastic resin distribution. PolyOne was formed from the consolidation of the former M.A. Hanna Company and The Geon Company.
