We can use our data to track individual stocks, industries, sectors, and indices. For today's bulletin, we present key metrics for the top picks in the NASDAQ 100. The companies listed below represent the top-ten BUY and STRONG BUY stocks within the index. They are presented below according to their one-month forecast target prices.

We have some turnover here, with four newcomers in CA Inc, Facebook, Comcast, and Google/Alphabet. LAM Research has declined from second to ninth. Activision and Cirix have moved up three positions each. INTC, AMAT, and GILD have left the top-ten list since the last time we presented the top NASDAQ picks at the end of April. Broadcom has retained its position as the top NASDAQ stock. Once again, the list is dominated by tech companies--as is often the case with the NASDAQ.
