Norfolk Southern (NSC) was on the Thursday morning scan results as well. This stock never looked back. We anticipate this continuation pattern will achieve fresh 52-week highs in the days ahead.
Volume, RSI and MACD suggest higher prices for NSC.

Futures are pointing to a bullish opening range, as the 10year yield retakes the 3-month in early trading.
Wait for confirmation before adding to these positions or starting new candidates. Fry-days are not the best days for initiation, as many traders will exit the markets for the weekend.
