The Chart of the Day belongs to Cooper Companies (COO). I found the stock by sorting the All Time High list for new high frequency in the last month then used the Flipchart feature to review the charts. Since the Trend Spotter signaled a buy on 6/6 the stock gained 20.64%.

The company also markets conventional toric and spherical lenses and lenses for patients with more complex vision disorders.
