Stock of the Day – Update
New Oriental Education & Technology Group Inc.

Up 10.4% since writing the case study with a breakout today on volume 254% larger than the average. It traded more than 900k shares which crushed the average of 300k+.

As I said yesterday (Institutions are pouring in):

I like when I see $227 million worth of shares purchased and 93 new institutional holders versus only $770 thousand worth of shares sold. This shows me major support and interest by the so called “smart-money”. The company sounds interesting and looks to have an excellent market (a description is below).
