the BULLISH FLAG of ... CONCRETE!!! 

7.46
+0.82 (12.35%)

SLOW & LOW? ... Stochastic Oscillator (Fast, Slow, and Full) ... Developed by George C. Lane in the late 1950s, the Stochastic Oscillator is a momentum indicator that shows the location of the current close relative to the high/low range over a set number of periods. Closing levels that are consistently near the top of the range indicate accumulation (buying pressure) and those near the bottom of the range indicate distribution (selling pressure). Readings below 20 are considered oversold and readings above 80 are considered overbought.  %D %K 

The "quick sand" bullish bridge of profit plays:  $MT, $CX, $CBI, $GVA, $MTW, $CNH, $GNA, $WOR, and never underestimate the power of SHEETROCK > $USG.
