When building your watch list, focus on stocks with an 80 or higher RS Rating. Consolidated Edison just met that criteria with a new score of 81.
IBD's proprietary RS Rating tracks technical performance by showing how a stock's price movement over the last 52 weeks measures up against that of other stocks on the major indexes.
Over 100 years of market history shows that the best stocks typically have an 80 or better RS Rating as they begin their biggest climbs.
