Here are the stocks that are passing at least three of my five filters, for the week of Feb 23. There are no stocks that are passing four of five filters, so the ones that you see here have passed (the minimum) of three.

The S&P 500 has dropped to previous lows, and is now in a cautious Yellow Red Light mode according to the 1-2-3 model. (The S&P P/E ratio has moved from 23.08 to 10.54 in a week, which is extremely suspect in mind. But that is what is being reported at http://online.barrons.com/mdc/public/page/9_3021-peyield.html.) The Inflation Model has moved to the neutral mark, at zero inflation stars.

It seems to me that Mr. Market is skeptical that the new stimulus package is going to have its intended effect. I hope to remain cautiously optimistic.

Have fun trading this week.
