Gator's Chart of the Day: CHD

Church & Dwight reported earnings last week and it still has not slowed down ... but it just might be close.  (The chart reminds me of CMG just before it began a correction that has passed 10% and looks like it could still be going down.)  Today's move outside the upper Bollinger band on above average volume makes the chart look very extended.

CHD has a lofty P/E (19+) for a low tech company.  With a PEG well over 2 this stock looks like it's ripe for a decent pullback.  Institutions own 83% of the common and if they decide to take profits the stock may drop quickly.  If you are long a tight trailing stop on at least some of your position seems in order.
