Again, you want the institutions working with you, not against you.</p>\n<p>Please read this Investor's Corner for more insight into finding thecorrect buy point.</p>\n<p>William O'Neil, founder of Investor's Business Daily, liked to use one-eighth of a point (or roughly 12 cents) as the amount a stock had to rise above a pivot point before he considered a stock as breaking out. Of course, until decimalization transformed the stock market at the dawn of the new millennium, the major U.S. exchanges quoted share prices in one-eighths, one-sixteenths and even one-32nds of a dollar.</p>\n<p><b>Cheap Stock No. 3</b></p>\n<p><i>Stock No. 2, screening for top IBD Composite Rating</i>:<b>Entravision Communications</b>(EVC). The Santa Monica-based Spanish language media firm owns TV stations and FM and AM radio stations across nine states. The stock broke out of a 4.52entry pointin surging volume during the week ended May 21.</p>\n<p>But on Sept. 13, EVC shares sank more than 5% and may be eyeing atest of the 50-day moving average. That test continued through Monday's session.</p>\n<p>During the week ended July 23, the stock made a sound first test of buying support at the10-week moving averagenear 5.62. Since then, EVC has pulled back hard frequently, making new tests of institutional support at or near that rising 10-week line.</p>\n<p>Buying shares as close as possible to the 10-week moving average amid a healthy rebound offers the intrepid trader asecondary buy point.Shares garnered a 6% gain in heavy turnover in the week ended Sept. 3 after rising 7.9% in the prior week.</p>\n<p>Entravision's IBD ratings include a 73 Composite — sharply below a preferable level of 90 or higher — and a 98 for Relative Strength. But a solid B+ rating forAccumulation/Distributionhas now dropped to a neutral grade of C. The stock also pays a dividend, yielding 1.5% annually.</p>\n<p>The company reported strong second-quarter results on Aug. 5. Earnings tripled to 9 cents a share as revenue vaulted 295% vs. a year ago to $178 million.</p>\n<p>Entravision has now posted quarterly sales topping $100 million for the third consecutive quarter.</p>\n<p>Wall Street sees a profitable future for Entravision, with earnings expected to climb to 38 cents a share this year vs. a net loss of a nickel per share in 2020.</p>\n<p>Analysts also see earnings rising another 26% to 48 cents in 2022.</p>\n<p><b>Premium IBD Ratings Galore</b></p>\n<p><i>Stock No. 4, screening for topComposite Rating</i>:<b>Richardson Electronics</b>(RELL). The stock has cleared a new cup pattern with a 9.09 buy point for the second time in roughly a month of trading. Shares are exitingthe 5% buy zone.</p>\n<p>In other words, do not chase the stock beyond 9.54.</p>\n<p>The LaFox, Ill., company focuses on radio frequency and microwave components for generators, display monitors and other products. Richardson serves the power grid, microwave tube, power conversion, diagnostic imaging markets.</p>\n<p>Richardson's IBD ratings include a 91 Composite — decent yet below a preferable level of 95 or higher — and a 95 for Relative Strength. The stock also hosts a solid A- rating forAccumulation/Distributionon a scale of A (heavy net buying by institutions over the past 13 weeks) to E (heavy net selling).</p>\n<p><b>Chip Leader Stumbles, Then Rights Itself</b></p>\n<p><i>Stock No. 5, screening for Fastest Growing Earnings Per Share</i>:<b>United Microelectronics</b>(UMC). The Taiwan-based integrated circuit maker has risen nearly fourfold after a July 2020 breakout around 3. Anew baseoffered an earlyentry pointat 9.92, 10 cents above the high in the week ended June 4.</p>\n<p>On July 29, UMC stock broke out with an 8% gain and rallied into the5% buy zone, which goes up to 10.42 from the 9.92 buy point. Despite a two-week pullback, UMC bullishly held above the key 10-week moving average. United Microelectronics jammed in the week ended Aug. 27, rallying nearly 9% to get well extended past the 9.92breakout point. The stock rose another 10.7% ahead the next week in active weekly volume.</p>\n<p>Notice how the stock is now trading above the top of thelong consolidation pattern. Shares also are testing the rising 10-week moving average again. A strong move off the 10-week line would offer a bullish sign that demand for shares by mutual funds, banks, hedge funds, pension funds and the like remains robust.</p>\n<p>United's earnings per share have grown 50%, 350%, 225%, 167%, 400% and 100% vs. year-ago levels in the past six quarters on sales increases of 32%, 30%, 28%, 15%, 19% and 21%. Solid numbers for bothComposite Rating(98) andRelative Strength Rating(93). Always remember, these ratings are best used for selecting stocks to buy, not for timing any entries or exits.</p>\n<p>UMC holds a best-possible A grade for theSMR Rating, which measures sales, margins andreturn on equity.</p>\n<p><b>A Strong Second Quarter</b></p>\n<p>United Micro reported robust second-quarter results on July 28, doubling earnings to 17 cents a share. According to Yahoo Finance, one analyst saw UMC notching a net profit of 13 cents per share while another saw 15 cents vs. 9 cents a year ago. Sales grew 21% to $1.82 billion. This increase also marked a second quarter in a row of accelerating growth. The top line rose 15% in Q4 2020 and accelerated 19% in Q1 this year.</p>\n<p><b>Emerging Leaders In Transport, Payments Tech, Trucking</b></p>\n<p>Among cheap stocks to buy in the transport sector, dry goods shipping firm<b>Safe Bulkers</b>(SB) and flatbed truck and logistics expert<b>Daseke</b>(DSKE) are acting strong lately. The trio also makes the IBD Screener for companies with high Composite Ratings and trading under $10 a share.</p>\n<p>Are these three additional names worthy cheap stocks to buy?</p>\n<p>Safe Bulkers crafted a new, relatively deep cup pattern. Thenew buy pointstands at 4.56 — a dime above the base's left-side peak. Ahandle also formedwith a 4.35 entry. On Sept. 10, a breakout past 4.35 fizzled. But SB surged the next session, soaring nearly 17% in huge turnover. Bullish. Shares have quickly gottenextended past the 5% buy zone.</p>\n<p>The past three sessions? Highly disappointing, as SB has now made another round trip of handsome gains from that 4.35 pivot point.</p>\n<p>Such actiontriggers a key defensive sell signal. However, the stock is making a smart recovery.</p>\n<p>Safe Bulkers' industry group compatriot,<b>Star Bulk Carriers</b>(SBLK), got some airplay in theSept. 7 edition of IBD Live, as well as on Friday's show, Sept. 24. The stock is, for now, surviving a sell-off and test of the 50-day line.</p>\n<p>Daseke, for a while,topped the 5% buy zoneafter rolling past a 9.10 entry in its own consolidation. But shares struggled this past week and now trade mildly below the breakout point.
