Going over the list of the top 10 S&P 500 stock market performers for the month of June with a technical eye to the future, I found that just a few of these names are likely to continue their recent strong gains in the third quarter.

Here are the five stocks that are likely to push higher over the next few months.

Spectra Energy

In this daily chart of Spectra Energy (SE) - Get Report , we see a strong and vibrant uptrend from a December low. Prices are above their rising 50-day and rising 200-day moving averages. A rising OBV line confirms the advance, with buyers acquiring more shares of SE on days when it closes higher. Momentum is not diverging bearishly from the price action.

SE could have a relatively shallow pullback with the overall market, but it looks like it will be short-lived and probably a buying opportunity.

Realty Income

In this chart of Realty Income (O) - Get Report , we can see a strong uptrend from a September low and not just a flash rally in June. Prices for O are above the rising 50-day and rising 200-day moving averages. The OBV line has been rising for the past 12 months, showing continued accumulation.

There is a small bearish divergence in May and June as prices made higher highs and momentum did not match it. This divergence may mean a pullback to $65 in the short-run before renewed price strength.

J.M. Smucker

In this chart of J.M. Smucker (SJM) - Get Report , we can see a durable uptrend in progress. Prices accelerated their uptrend in recent weeks, which is why SJM made this list. SJM is above its uptrending 50-day and 200-day averages. The OBV line was neutral for a few months but turned up smartly in June, telling us that buyers became more aggressive. Momentum is not diverging from the strong price action, which is a plus.

In the short-run, we could see SJM pull back to the $150-to-$148 area before we see renewed strength.

Symantec

In this daily vertical bar chart of Symantec (SYMC) - Get Report , we can see that the rally for SYMC started later than the other stocks we have discussed. SYMC did not turn up until the middle of June from a May low, which was a retest of the March nadir. The OBV line turned up with prices in June. The 50-day average has a positive slope while the 200-day is still flat. There is no divergence between the recent price action and the momentum study.

SYMC is likely to move sideways to higher from here, but the pace of gains is probably going to be slower.

Newmont Mining

This daily chart of Newmont Mining (NEM) - Get Report is the poster stock for the precious metal rally this year. NEM hammered out a base pattern in July through January, and then prices took off to the upside. NEM is above its rising 50-day and 200-day averages. The up move in the OBV line is very positive for the continuation of the advance. Momentum is weakening, but NEM has not reacted to it yet. Corrections in NEM this year have been sideways and shallow.

I look for still more strength in NEM in the third quarter despite calls by some market observers that gold and silver are overbought or overdone or a relic that doesn't pay a dividend.
