Market Ends Week Lower – RSI Stocks Bucking the Market Trend

Today in the market, Friday March 28, 2008:  Unlike last week, the market ended the week on a down note.  Consumer worries weighed on the market.  Overall the week change was slightly positive.

RSI’s Themes:  With no ETF/CEF picks it is tough to discern any themes.  As was the situation yesterday, the few stock picks didn’t give a clear thematic vision.  I guess it is punt (as in football) time.

Stocks Medium Volatility:

  • BTM – Brasil Telecom SA
  • DCOM – Dime Community Bancshares, Inc.
  • GBN – Great Basin Gold Ltd.
  • TNE – Tele Norte Leste Particip

We have only one name on the medium volatility list, new to RSI that is:

Dime Community Bancshares, Inc. operates as the holding company for The Dime Savings Bank of Williamsburgh, which provides financial services in the United States.  It pays a 3.40% yield which is getting competitive with CD rates. Does this pick portend that there is hope in the banking sector?

Stocks High Volatility:

  • CALM – Cal-Maine Foods, Inc.
  • CLF – Cleveland Cliffs, Inc.
  • PCLN – priceline.com Inc.

Bottom line is that all the stock picks have done well this year and are bucking the market trend.  That is what RSI is all about.
