Hot Managed Healthcare Companies To Invest In Right Now

I went out on a limb last week, and now it's time to see how that decision played out.

I predicted that Stratasys (NASDAQ: SSYS  ) would close higher on the week. The maker of 3-D printers was a hot stock last year before cooling off in 2013, but I figured its quarterly report on Monday could get the bullish sentiment rolling again. It was a well-received report, and Stratasys went on to inch higher in four of the five trading days. The stock rose nearly 6% on the week. I was right. I predicted that the tech-heavy Nasdaq would outperform the Dow Jones Industrial Average. (DJINDICES: ^DJI  ) . This has been a tricky call lately, so how did it play out this time? Well, the market had a strong run this week, fueled by encouraging corporate developments. Secondary stocks led the way with Nasdaq soaring 1.8% on the week. The Dow managed to close just 1.6% higher. I was right. My final call was for Applied Materials (NASDAQ: AMAT  ) to beat Wall Street's income estimates in its latest quarter. The provider of gear, services, and software to assist in the making of advanced semiconductors, flat-panel displays, and solar photovoltaic products companies has been posting blowout quarterly results over the past year, and I was banking on seeing the trend continue. Analysts were looking for a profit of $0.13 a share during the quarter, and Applied Materials came through with earnings of $0.16 a share. I was right.

Three out of three? Awesome! That makes me 11 of 12 over the past four weeks.
