NDW Spotlight Stock
GVA Granite Construction Inc R ($102.51) - Building - GVA is a 5 for 5'er that ranks in the top third of the building sector matrix. After briefly falling to a sell signal in August, GVA rallied and returned to a buy signal with a double top break at $99. The stock continued higher, reaching a new all-time high at $112 before pulling back and reversing up from previous resistance. Long exposure may be added in the upper $90s to mid $100s and we will set our initial stop at $87, a potential spread triple bottom break on GVA's chart, which would also violate its trend line. We will use the bullish price objective, $157, as our target price, giving us a reward-to-risk ratio north of 3.0.
