Stocks This Week: Discovery Communications, Mattel And JD.com

This is the week following triple-witching Friday in June. Historically, this period has been bearish, so stocks may struggle during the week. But Monday will likely open on the upside.

Discovery Communications will have a cycle buy signal on the 19th. More than 60% of such signals have been profitable in the last year. And, the mid-May to late September period has been one of the stronger time intervals of the year for this stock.
