Stocks to Watch - September 13, 2010

Watch list for September 13, 2010

BCE--------31.85
FMCN------20.36
NVS--------54.42

Rather than issuing a new list at the begining of each month, I think it is better to let market conditions dictate the timing in which we pick the stocks which show a hint of a positive outlook.

Still like NVS, a foreign drug company; BCE, a Canadian telecom and FMCN, a Chinese advertising firm.

We'll be checking the performance of these picks in a few weeks.

FMCN Displays a Good Chart

Chart patterns seem to attract my attention. FNCM has formed a double bottom with support at 23 and broke above its 50 day moving average on August 15. I consider these actions a positive sign.

Focus Media Holding Limited (FMCN) operates out-of-home advertising network using audiovisual digital displays in the People's Republic of China.

Pluses at this time are:

• Volume at approximately 3.26 million average shares/day
• P/E is at 19 (slightly high for my taste)
• Current price at 55.8% below the 52 week high
• Steady earnings increase since '04

Trading today at 29.59, FMCN may be a stock worth taking a second look.
