Companies that deal with automobiles have stocks that have formed a very strong performing industry group in recent months. One of the strongest is a mix of dealerships and auction services where "wrecks" are auctioned off to buyers at ridicuously low prices who think they can fix them up. They often hire inspectors to bid from afar on vehicles relying upon reports as to the extent of damage and fixup costs. Copart, Inc. (CPRT) has dismantling yards and sells parts but its main source of revenue are auction sites all over the world. There seems to be a steady stream of inventory from increasingly bad drivers out there.

The stock of CPRT is one of those "go to the moon" high flyers one wishes he had bought a couple of years or so ago. It currently seems to show no signs of stopping as it is on an accelerated growth path with more and more auction site openings domestically and in places like Germany, Asia, and India.

Our recent article on Copart, Inc. (CPRT) is in the Archives Section Below.

Zenith's Active List of 39 Stocks as of 10/19/2019

(Updated once a week, usually on Saturday except when less than 5 trading days in the week.)

Note: Zenith tries to pick only stocks which are shortable, but sometimes stocks appear afterward on the SEC Regulation SHO list of stocks which are not shortable, which is beyond our control. On some stocks, Zenith may hold more than the number of shares it trades in its inventory. Thus the "short" sale of such a security would technically not be a "short" sale for us and not subject to SEC rules regarding selling securities which are not deliverable. Also, stocks pop on and off the list available for shorting on successive days, so the presence of a stock on the current SHO list doesn't mean it was there at the time it was shorted.

Stocks recently restricted by SEC Rule 201 as not shortable unless we already have a position which are on our Active List include: ENPH (7/06)

What are the last three entries in the Active Stocks chart list? These represent typical high-, mid-, and low-cap mutual funds to help us gage the tenor of the stock market as a whole.
