Trade of the Day: Make a Move to Own Rent-A-Center (RCII)
by Sam Collins 01/03/08Rent-A-Center Inc. (RCII) -- This company, together with its subsidiaries, engages in the rental of household durable goods to customers on a rent-to-own basis principally in the United States. RCII's common stock fell from over $30 this time last year to under $14 in November.


However, since then, RCII has picked up buyers and the analysts covering it have a consensus "Buy" rating on the stock. Our own internal indicator, the Collins-Bollinger Reversal (CBR), has triggered a double-buy signal and the stochastic issued a buy sign yesterday. Positions taken now could prove profitable, especially if upside volume drives prices above the downtrend line at just under $16.

The charts are bullish for both indices, and it looks like they could reach my immediate target.
Thursday's dramatic acceleration, coupled with a 'key reversal day' on Monday, leads me to the conclusion that the markets will continue to rise.
Our internal indicators are now telling us that stocks are still a good value at this level.
The recent pullback in the First Trust ISE-Revere Natural Gas Index Fund (FCG) could offer a good opportunity to accumulate shares.
Unless the S&P 500 closes below 1,020, investors should be buying into this decline.
