Advisors' Opinion:- [By Roberto Pedone]
Himax Technologies (HIMX), a fabless semiconductor company, provides display imaging processing technologies to consumer electronics worldwide. This stock closed up 5.2% to $9.02 in Tuesday's trading session.
Tuesday's Range: $8.40-$9.05
52-Week Range: $5.70-$16.15
Tuesday's Volume: 5.88 million
Three-Month Average Volume: 4.83 millionFrom a technical perspective, HIMX ripped sharply higher here right above some near-term support at $8.26 with above-average volume. This jump to the upside on Tuesday is quickly pushing shares of HIMX within range of triggering a big breakout trade. That trade will hit if HIMX manages to take out Tuesday's intraday high of $9.05 to more near-term resistance at $9.57 and then above its 200-day moving average of $9.66 with high volume.
Traders should now look for long-biased trades in HIMX as long as it's trending above that key near-term support at $8.26 and then once it sustains a move or close above those breakout levels with volume that hits near or above 4.83 million shares. If that breakout hits soon, then HIMX will set up to re-test or possibly take out its next major overhead resistance levels at $11.18 to $11.69.

Best High Dividend Stocks To Own Right Now: Market Vectors Poland ETF (PLND)
Market Vectors Poland ETF (the Fund) seeks to replicate the price and yield performance of the Market Vectors Poland Index (the Index). The Index is a diversified index consisting of at least 25 companies either headquartered in Poland or deriving at least 50% of their revenues from Poland. It invest in sectors, such as financials, energy, industrials, consumer staples, telecomm services, materials, consumer discretionary, utilities, information technology and healthcare. The Fund�� investment advisor is Van Eck Associates Corporation. Advisors' Opinion:- [By Benjamin Shepherd]
Market Vectors Poland (NYSE: PLND) is a great exchange traded fund (ETF) play on the continued strength of the Polish economy.
Financial services figure prominently in the ETF�� holdings at 44 percent of assets, but that�� lower than other competing products and largely reflective of the major role the financial sector plays in Poland�� economy. More than 23 percent of assets are allocated to basic materials and energy due to the country�� resource wealth.
The ETF is also relatively cheap with an expense ratio of just 0.61 percent. It also offers the added benefit of a nearly 3.2 percent yield, thanks to the tradition of Polish stocks paying stable dividends.
What�� more, the fund is inexpensive in terms of valuation because it price has been depressed by the ongoing crisis in Ukraine. Both countries have historically been Russian satellites, but Poland was quick to integrate itself with Western Europe after the country�� communist government fell in 1989. As a result, it enjoys the diplomatic cover of the EU and the military protection of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, making it unlikely that Russia will interfere in the country�� politics.
Despite those protections, the fund�� price-to-forward-earnings ratio has fallen from about 19 to just 14 over the past few weeks and shares are now trading at book value. Shares are also trading at just 0.58 times sales, a substantial discount to the fund�� historical valuation largely due to regional concerns.
