Barrick Gold had its Relative Strength (RS) Rating upgraded from 67 to 81 Thursday.

When looking for the best stocks to buy and watch, one factor to watch closely is relative price strength.

IBD's unique RS Rating measures technical performance by using a 1 (worst) to 99 (best) score that identifies how a stock's price performance over the trailing 52 weeks matches up against the rest of the market.

Decades of market research shows that the best-performing stocks tend to have an RS Rating of at least 80 in the early stages of their moves.
