Top Rocket Stocks for Earnings Week of Nov. 5

Stock quotes in this article: C , CPSL , NLY , NMX , TSO , CSCO , RL , DYN , NVDA  

Also worth looking at this week is Ralph Lauren(RL Quote), which Jim Cramer recently called one of his top retail stocks.

Down massively from its 52-week high, Ralph Lauren's stock is a play on the high-end consumer and the fact that the retailer is transforming its business model from being a niche-based clothing company to a worldwide fashion empire that includes home goods. The company reports quarterly results on Wednesday.

Another earnings play this week is Dynegy(DYN Quote), which is slated to report on Thursday. Dynegy offers a great play on the warmer-than-normal weather we've had this fall. Dynegy engages in the production and sale of electric energy, capacity and ancillary services in the U.S.

This week's portfolio also looks at Nymex Holdings(NMX Quote), Nividia(NVDA Quote) and Intel(INTC Quote). Which stock should are buyable here? And if more people tend to get married when the economy blows up, that should be good for The Knot(KNOT Quote), right?

To find the snapbacks and potential breakouts on a regular basis, check out these Stockpickr portfolios, which I use in my own research each week:

  • Today's Hot List: This daily list is a must-view every midday to see what stocks are making the biggest moves and why.
  • Always check the Biggest Percentage Losers, a list of stocks that lost big the day before, because they can snap back hard.

    When you check this list on Stockpickr, you can see which stocks are owned by the quality hedge funds and mutual funds. Pay attention to those. They will be buying at the lower prices, so you should be also.

  • Ditto for the 52-week-low list. You must check the above two lists every day if you hope to find volatile stocks.
  • Biotech Short Squeezes: Dendreon(DNDN Quote) and others can often be found in this category.
  • Stocks Rising on Unusual Volume: These are potential breakout stocks.
  • Stockpickr's System Trades of the Day: These are trades triggering that day in various backtested trading systems we've developed.
  • Stocks With Unusual Option Activity: Perhaps someone knows something?
  • Latest Activist Situations: These are beaten-down stocks that hedge funds are accumulating shares of and demanding change in. Believe me, these hedge funds piggyback each other. And once they start rocking the boat, things happen quickly. This should be on your must-view list.

One final place to frequent is the Answers section on Stockpickr, where ideas such as those presented in this article are thrown around daily.
