The rise in Corn prices has been one of the major themes of the year. Yet one company, Ingredion, INGR, did what could be considered the unthinkable in that environment. They changed their name to Ingredion from Corn Products on June 4th. A fatal blow? Not really. Look at the charts.

INGR CHART
From a low on July 17 at 45.30 the stock has risen to over 52 and is now making a bull flag and an ascending triangle with tops at 53 and targets on a breakout higher to 56 and 60.70. The bullish Relative strength Index (RSI) and positive Moving Average Convergence Divergence indicator (MACD) both support a further move higher. But it does not end there. The weekly chart exhibits the same bull flag but adds upside reinforcement from a MACD that is crossing to positive, and a Measured Move to 67.80 from the higher low. And the non-time dependent 3-box reversal Point and Figure chart, PnF, shown below, carries a bullish price objective of 68. Perhaps the move is just what was needed.
