$NSC P&F and Daily Chart Breakout Point: $274.39 Spread Triple Top Breakout on July 18. A comprehensive analysis by Market Edge shows that triple top breakouts were profitable approximately 88% of the time, with an average gain of about 29% over a 6-7 month holding period. The success rate is highest when the breakout is accompanied by strong volume or confirmed by other technical factors such as trend strength or supporting indicators. NSC had strong (HUGE) volume when the breakout occurred.

$NSC a real lesson in the power of Investing. I’ve held this stock since 1991 have not invested any more money than the original 300 shares. Use the dividends over the 34 years. To buy other stocks. Original investment $1,812.00

$NSC CSX is reducing its management staff by 125 immediately, This may indicate that they are more of a merger choice than previous media information reveals. Also CSX settled in advance, all their Union Contracts before they had expired. That NEVER occurred in the 19 years I worked for them .Who knows, Safety records, track conditions and of course costs will have a lot to do with UPs Decision.
