TradingMarkets Mid-Day Movers
By John Patrick Lee | TradingMarkets.com | January 26, 2006

PowerRatings were created by Cesar Alvarez, Director of Research for Connors Capital, LLC. Cesar looked back at more than 5.5 million trades between Jan 1, 1995 and Dec 1, 2005. The results are based on the average 5-day performance.
