Last week was the best performance in roughly 2 years, so it’s an interesting week to run screens on. Below I’ve listed the best performing stocks of the week, with the normal caveats (volume >100K, stock price >$10, market cap >$300M). There were over 250 stocks/ETFs which returned at least 10%, so I limited it to 14%+ to keep the list manageable at 75 names.
This is the type of list that will showcase a few things – stocks that had been beaten down the most during the selloff, potential new leadership stocks, and stocks reacting to news from last week.
