Stock Picks : Motorola, Level 3 Communications, Rambus

I have been watching Motorola (MOT: 6.73 0.00 0.00%) over the past few days, waiting for a possible upside move. The stock seems to have found a strong support at present levels, which is also support from late February and early March. The technical indicators are improving significantly. The slow stochastic has moved above the 50% level and the RSI is near the 50% level. I'm a buyer of MOT once it breaks $7.12 for a possible breakout move. MOT could have good upside potential, so watch the stock closely next week.

 

Level 3 Communications (LVLT: 1.29 0.00 0.00%) - Looking closely at the technical chart what we see there is a short-term downtrend, but things are starting to get better again. On today's session, we have seen huge volume at the bottom, which was probably buying activity. The technical indicator MACD is starting to look like it may cross soon, which indicates momentum is shifting towards the upside as well. Keep this on your watchlist.

 

Rambus (RMBS:24.14 0.00 0.00%) is still trading in a range with resistance at 25.42 and support near 22. The stock closed today near the middle at $24.20. Looking at the technical chart all indicators are still favorable but have weakened a bit since last week. As long as the stock stays above $23.09, the trend appears bullish. Only a close below $22 would warrant a change in sentiment. A fall below its key support level could drag down it to $20.62.

Biotechnology stocks to watch :

GNBT - Generex Biotechnology Corporation - The stock has been in an upwards trend the past few days and looks ready to continue this move.

HEB - Hemispherx BioPharma - I like this stock as a long-term play
