On Wednesday, PowerSchool got an upgrade for its IBD SmartSelect Composite Rating from 94 to 96.
The upgrade means the stock is now outperforming 96% of all other stocks in terms of key performance metrics and technical strength. Winning stocks often have a 95 or higher score in the early stages of a new price run, so that's a good starting point when looking for the best stocks to buy and watch.
PowerSchool is not currently near a proper entry. See if the stock goes on to form a new chart pattern and offer a new buying opportunity. It has cleared key moving averages and has found support at the 10-day line. A high-risk buy could be at the next touch of that moving average, while keeping in mind we are under a Market In Correction.
