Dear Subscriber,

Despite yesterday’s strong rally, many attractive stocks still trade at great valuations.

Kevin Matras shows how to use earnings yield to find such gems in this week's Screen of the Week.

Unfortunately, the rally does not signal that an economic rebound is forthcoming. On our Analyst Blog, Dirk van Djik explains what needs to happen for a recovery to occur in his entry: What Will Cause a Recover?

Wishing you prosperity,
