They make small appliances and absorbent products, oh yeah, and work with the Department of Defense. Quite a broad mix. Maybe that is why National Presto (NPK) is looking up.

It has a bullish and rising Relative Strength Index (RSI) verging on being overbought, with a moving Average Convergence Divergence indicator (MACD) that is positive, both supporting a continued move higher on the daily chart. It also has over 12% short interest so a squeeze is possible. The weekly chart below shows a bit of potential resistance along the way higher at 84.40, just over the 200 week Simple Moving Average (SMA) before a full breakout but has a strong RSI and a growing MACD as well supporting it higher.

Finally the 3-box reversal Point and Figure chart (PnF) carries a price objective of 100. A beauty in all time frames. There is one difficulty with this stock though. Since it does not have any options, the only way to protect your capital is with a stop loss, so you are subject to overnight gap risk.
