The Chart of the Day is General Dymanics (NYSE:GD). I found the stock by sorting the All Time High list for new high frequency in the last month, then used the Flipchart feature to review the charts. Since the Trend Spotter signaled a buy on 8/18 the stock is up 4.19%.

GD's primary businesses focus is on shipbuilding and marine systems, business aviation, information systems, and land and amphibious combat systems. Each of these businesses involves design, manufacturing and program management expertise, advanced technology, and integration of complex systems. The primary customers for the company's businesses are the United States military, the armed forces of allied nations, other government organizations and a diverse base of corporate and industrial buyers.
