Highly Rated Wesco International Near Buy Zone Ahead Of Earnings

IBD 50 member Wesco International is forming a base offering a 141.02 buy point with its next quarterly report expected on May 5. The base is a first-stage consolidation.

Be aware that buying just before a stock reports can be risky, since disappointing numbers could send it sharply lower. You can reduce your risk by waiting to see the actual numbers and the market's reaction. You can also use an options strategy to limit your potential downside.
