“During our second quarter, we achieved sales and profit results above our expectations.” stated Kevin Murai, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Our efficient operating model delivered another strong quarter of positive operating cash flow, double digit adjusted ROIC and, we believe, positions us well for growth in the second half of 2016.”
SNX Technical Analysis
SNX opened trading yesterday at $93.98, which was up from the previous day's trading of $92.94. SNX closed trading yesterday at $94.00 and spiked up after market to $98.61, equivalent to a 5% increase from the closing price.
Taking a look at the daily chart, we can see the last time SNX traded above these levels was on March 22nd when it traded at $101.83. Taking a closer look at the daily chart, we can see that SNX has been in a upward trend dating back to May 5th when it traded at $78.16.
SNX has a float of 28.89 million shares and traded 1.19 times the normal daily trading volume on Thursday. For trading purposes, I would like to see SNX open trading on Friday above $97.00, and if it does I would be looking to take a long position at the bell. My stop loss would be $0.50 from my entry position, fearing anything more than that and the stock would start to fill in the gap up.
