This is one of our favorite bottom-up scans: Follow the Flow.

In this note, we simply create a universe of stocks that experienced the most unusual options activity — either bullish or bearish, but not both.

We utilize options experts, both internally and through our partnership with The TradeXchange. Then, we dig through the level 2 details and do all the work upfront for our clients.

Our goal is to isolate only those options market splashes that represent levered and high-conviction, directional bets.

Our International Hall of Famers list is composed of the 100 largest US-listed international stocks, or ADRs.

We’ve also sprinkled in some of the largest ADRs from countries that did not make the market cap cut. 

These stocks range from some well-known mega-cap multinationals such as Toyota Motor and Royal Dutch Shell to some large-cap global disruptors such as Sea Ltd and Shopify.

It’s got all the big names and more--but only those that are based outside the US. You can find all the largest US stocks on our original Hall of Famers list.

The beauty of these scans is really in their simplicity.

We take the largest names each week and then apply technical filters in a way that the strongest stocks with the most momentum rise to the top.

Based on the market environment, we can also flip the scan on its head and filter for weakness.

Let’s dive in and take a look at some of the most important stocks from around the world.

Here’s this week’s list:

The market continues to shake off negative news as stocks react positively to incoming economic data and the Fed's actions.

Sure, banks are still a problem, and we need to watch them closely as earnings season kicks off.

But we can only give this price action from financials so much weight as the list of bullish developments in other areas continues to grow.

Overall, there are a lot more positives than negatives right now. And this proves true when we look through our universes, such as our Inside Scoop list.

We continue to see more and more bullish setups and stocks we want to buy come across our radar.

Let's talk about the latest now.

While the major stock market averages remain a mess, we continue to find new setups in individual stocks we want to buy.

From a market internals standpoint, it is encouraging that bullish chart patterns are emerging from a variety of sectors and industry groups.

Today, we have two industrials, a fast-food operator, and a chipmaker.

We already know that institutions and insiders like these names. And now - with these charts pressing on new highs, we like them too.

Let's take a look.

When investing in the stock market, we always want to approach it as "a market of stocks."

Regardless of the environment, there are always stocks showing leadership and trending higher.

We may have to look harder to identify them depending on current market conditions. But there are always stocks that are going up.

The same can be said for weak stocks. Regardless of the environment, there are always stocks that are going down, too. 

We already have multiple scans focusing on stocks making all-time highs, such as Hall of Famers, Minor Leaguers, and the 2 to 100 Club.

We filter these universes for stocks that are exhibiting the best momentum and relative strength characteristics. 

Clearly, we spend a lot of time identifying and writing about leading stocks every week, via multiple reports.

Now, we're also highlighting lagging stocks on a recurring basis.

Welcome to the Short Report.
