Early rotation: selling CSGS; buying CECO.

Another terrifying move…

Only thing going for CECO right now is that education might be the next Bernanke bubble.  Zero hedge has an interesting comment there:


Earnings are off.  Student enrollment is off.  Their accreditation is being attacked.  Looks like some HFTs kicked its face into the dirt.

Yeah, my kind of stock…

As always, if they gap away from each other, that would prevent the trade.

I credit the Zero Hedge tip to www.effectivevolume.com (for those interested in market timing, it's a fantastic site, and Pascal offers incredible insights).
