Though it looks like the market is going nowhere, I am still able to find few short term picks for my 401K. Here are my new picks. They are mainly based on some technical analysis and their latest news and earnings. While the oil’s price is going up, CSX is gaining momentum. As to TRA, their last quarter earnings tripled from last year. Both stocks experienced high volume lately. Good luck! Don’t forget this is a short term investment (1 to 4 week period).
