March could be a very interesting month for stocks traders. The markets seem to be picking up after the difficult start to the year and trading feels bullish again. Commodity dependent companies are still seeing low share prices, and in some cases cutting dividends, but are still hoping for a turnaround. Troubled German car manufacturer VW is also looking for a better results this year after a disastrous performance in 2015. Wise investors will be keeping a close eye on the losers as well as the winners.
