Cooper Companies - All Time High

The Chart of the Day belongs to Cooper Companies (NYSE:COO). 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 6/6 the stock gained 20.64%.

COO through its principal subsidiaries, develops, manufactures and markets healthcare products. CooperVision markets a range of contact lenses to correct visual defects, specializing in toric lenses that correct astigmatism. The company also markets conventional toric and spherical lenses and lenses for patients with more complex vision disorders.
