Those subscribing to a momentum investing strategy tend to believe that stocks experiencing price increases tend to rally, so long as both internal and external conditions don't change. Of course, no rally can continue forever, so investors may measure momentum across different timeframes. The key goal for a momentum investor is to identify a possible target and enter a position while there is still potential for upside.
Three stocks across multiple sectors may draw the attention of investors looking for a momentum play based on their share price improvement over short, medium, and long timeframes. These companies may be overlooked by investors more broadly because they are not necessarily the biggest names within their sectors or industries, but they are each supported by several positive analyst ratings.
