David Keller
by David Keller,
President and Chief Strategist, Sierra Alpha Research

September and October have historically been challenging months for stocks, and the major averages are already showing signs of fatigue after a lackluster August. But even when the indexes struggle, there are always individual stocks showing compelling technical setups. In this episode, Dave breaks down charts including Microsoft (MSFT), CrowdStrike (CRWD), Tyler Technologies (TYL), Coinbase (COIN), FactSet (FDS), Target (TGT), General Mills (GIS), AT&T (T), Deere (DE), and Valero (VLO), highlighting trends, momentum, relative strength, support and resistance, and potential breakouts. He also demonstrates how he uses the StockCharts Screener to find stocks making new highs and uncover promising chart setups regardless of what the major indexes are doing.
