Top 10 Stocks to buy this week

Discover Financial Services (DFS, news) delighted Wall Street on June 23 with a fiscal second-quarter profit that tripled from a year earlier as credit-card delinquency rates fell to a 25-year low, allowing the company to set aside less money to cover losses.




There was positive revenue growth, too; a 5% increase in total loans painted a rosier portrait of its consumers than analysts had expected. The increase bodes well for Discover's efforts to generate more revenue based on new business and less on avoiding bad loans.



Discover, based in the Chicago suburb of Riverwoods, Ill., recently executed a series of deals designed to attract new customers with products other than credit cards. It bought Student Loan Corp. from Citigroup (C, news) in January. In February, Discover said it was buying about $1.1 billion of consumer deposits from insurer Allstate (ALL, news) and would market its own deposit account products through Allstate's agents. In May, Discover also agreed to acquire Tree.com's mortgage-origination subsidiary, Home Loan Center.
