Consulting: If you can't be part of the solution, there is good money in prolonging the problem.

The business services industry group has been performing well because of the economy. Many of these companies specialize in helping companies become more efficient and profitable. A bad economy is good news for many of these firms as they will be called upon for consulting insights and help. Others simply serve businesses in the day-to-day functions and were outperforming the markets in 2001 and 2002. All of them are uptrending or within a basing pattern.

Look at the Inverse Head & Shoulders pattern on Fastenal Co. (FAST). According to the pattern it should move up to $55 in the next 5 months. Terrific volume confirmation with the MACD lows moving higher gives great confidence in this trade.
