Weekend Winners and Losers - Alert HQ BUY and SELL signals for July 10, 2009

The latest list of free stock alerts is up and available at Alert HQ.

Each week we scan about 7300 stocks and ETFs, checking fundamentals, performing technical analysis and looking for fresh BUY and SELL signals. Out of this process we generate the following lists:

• Alert HQ stock alerts - based on a combination of proprietary and standard technical analysis techniques, we identify stocks or ETFs that are undergoing reversals, either to the upside or to the downside
• Trend Leaders - a collection of stocks in strong up-trends
• Cash Flow Kings whose free cash flow yield is 25% or greater
• Bollinger Band Breakouts - stocks or ETFs that have moved at least 3% above their upper Bollinger Band or at least 3% below their lower Bollinger Band
• Swing Signals - stocks that have bounced off a higher or lower Bollinger Band
  
• Trend Busters - stocks or ETFs that have violated a current trend.

This week's results --

Another bad week in the markets: losses in the major averages ranged from 1.6% to over 3%. Economic reports were mixed but pretty much all the news was greeted with a negative reaction. Sentiment has shifted from "less bad" to "less good" despite weekly jobless claims coming in less than expected (finally under 600K) and exports growing more than expected (a positive for U.S. manufacturing). The negative tone is fully reflected in our Alert HQ signals. The Trend Leaders list continues to wilt, SELL signals greatly outnumber BUY signals and our Trend Busters are mostly breaking in a downward direction. Only our Swing Signals show any evidence of a bounce. Will they prevail?
