I ran a screen on Finviz for names that have held up the past week; generally when the market turns these will be amongst the best performers. We have not really had a chance to run this sort of test in 2012 as the bears have only had 3 days at a time [Mar 30, 2012: Three Days and Out for Bears in 2012], so there have been no sustained downturns to ferret out the real strength.
The parameters I used are simple – aside from “positive return the past week” I screened for decent liquidity, i.e. 400K average volume, market cap over $300M and minimum price of $15. ETFs were excluded.
Due to size of list the link below will take you to a pdf file. If the first click takes you to a new Market Montage page, click the link again on that page. These are sorted by industry.
