Published:
Last Updated:
Based on data fromTickerspy, the best performing market sectors so far this week are cancer stocks, home funishing, and aircraft leasing.
Much of the strength in the cancer stock sector is due to moves by Dendreon (DNDN), Cell Genesys (CEGE), and Geron (GERN).Home furnishing stocks are being pushed higher by shares in Pier 1 (PIR) and Williams Sonomo (WSM), both of which are down over 50% year-to-date.
Among the aircraft leasing stocks the price advance leaders are Aercap (AER) and Aircastle (AYR).
The weakest sector over the last week in the Tickerspy survey is exchange stocks, down mostly due to weakness in CME group (CME).

Credit Card Companies Are Doing Something Nuts
Credit card companies are at war. The biggest issuers are handing out free rewards and benefits to win the best customers.
It’s possible to find cards paying unlimited 1.5%, 2%, and even more today. That’s free money for qualified borrowers, and the type of thing that would be crazy to pass up. Those rewards can add up to thousands of dollars every year in free money, and include other benefits as well.
We’ve assembled some of the best credit cards for users today. Don’t miss these offers because they won’t be this good forever.
Flywheel Publishing has partnered with CardRatings for our coverage of credit card products. Flywheel Publishing and CardRatings may receive a commission from card issuers.
