Millicom International Cellular (TIGO) is up 148% over the past 52 weeks.

TIGO maintains a 100% “Buy” technical opinion from Barchart.

TIGO's fundamentals are robust with strong revenue and earnings growth estimates.

Analyst sentiment is overwhelmingly positive, with multiple “Strong Buy” ratings.

Valued at $11.52 billion, Millicom International Cellular (TIGO) is a leading international operator of cellular telephone services, primarily in emerging markets. The company has sought to establish an early presence in markets with little or no cellular service by applying for cellular licenses, primarily through joint ventures with prominent local business partners.

I found today’s Chart of the Day by using Barchart’s powerful screening functions to sort for stocks with the highest technical buy signals; superior current momentum in both strength and direction; and a Trend Seeker “buy” signal. I then used Barchart’s Flipcharts feature to review the charts for consistent price appreciation. TIGO checks those boxes. Since the Trend Seeker issued a new “Buy” on Jan. 16, shares are up 14.29%.
