(A Top Pick Nov 23/17. Up 6%.) This company continues to execute. A great global player on infrastructure. Chart shows a very healthy up channel.

Chart shows a big saucer formation, which is the same as the commodity. However, gold is kind of retesting previous resistance, but this company is underperforming the underlying commodity, so he would give it a thumbs down.

If prices go back up to a certain level, people start selling to make themselves whole if they had bought at higher levels previously. This is exactly what is going on with this. You have over a year of investors being underwater. Unfortunately, he believes the next move is lower.

The chart shows this is in a bit of a moonshot. The RSI indicates this just broke into overbought territory. If you own, you should trim some. If you want to buy, wait for it to come down a little. Trading in a channel, so wait for it to reach the bottom of the channel before you buy.
