QCOM is running up ahead of earnings with a rebound off of a sell down during last earnings season. The recovery is a fast short-term V bottom.
Although many Dow 30 components had a severe sell-down in December 2018, most have not gone up further than the previous highs. UTX is such a stock. It has now officially been range-bound for over a year, as it was range-bound before the December collapse.
KTOS is an S&P 500 index component. It rose on surges of HFT orders on sequential days, defying the sell down on the major indexes. Smaller funds managers often buy stocks with surges of volume, assuming this is Dark Pool activity when it is not.
