Calgon Carbon (CCC) A Solid Environmental Play

CCC caught my attention two weeks ago as it broke higher out of near-term technical resistance.  Looking at the weekly chart below, we now see it making a run at breaking out of a two year consolidation/narrowing trading range pattern.  You can look at it in a pure technical/chart pattern sense or see what it […]
