Juniper [[jnpr]] shares surged 17% after the maker of networking equipment reported strong earnings. The stock had slumped about 40% since peaking at a six-year high last October. In addition to the strong earnings report, the company named a new CEO on Thursday, replacing long-time chief Scott Kriens, who will more into the chairman role at the company. Looking at the daily technical chart, it shows that JNPR declined substantially during June, and then consolidated forming an inverted head and shoulder pattern. On Friday, the stock broke out from its neckline on relatively high volume, the neckline breakout was accompanied by a bullish Stochastics crossover in oversold territory. Based on today’s action, I expect to see the stock move up in the next coming weeks. Technically I’m bullish on the stock.

Trinity Industries (TRN) - Previous support now offering a strong resistance. In the last trading sessions, the stock found resistance at around $37 and declined. The technical chart shows the stock has just entered the bull market as the 50 day moving average has crossed on top over 200 day moving average in early June to form Golden Cross, a very bullish signal. However KD shows weak signal as K line is below D line. Therefore a better time to buy would be to wait for K line to rise back up again above D line or buy stock only if the stock moves above $37 with tight stop loss.
