ALL IN AGAIN ON $YELP

I get the sense YELP is going to smoke numbers this quarter. If you recall, I loaded up prior to last quarter’s numbers at $41, pared down some of the position to reduce exposure, locking in huge gains; but now it’s time to reload the proverbial boat again.

Indeud.

Over the past week, I’ve been a buyer of YELP’s shares and have completed my purchases today. Ultimately, YELP will be bought out or trade in the $100-200 price range. That has always been my opinion, even when the stock was $14. Go check the archives.

In short, I sold out of non-core names, SUNE and YY, and have added to a core position. I like to consider my non-core positions conduits that finance core position purchases.

At any rate, I’m still a little hesitant about the market, due to recent GOP developments. Hopefully, they opt for sanity over the way of the Palin.

    “What I am about to say will befuddle many of you, but I want YELP to trade down after earnings. For the love of calamity, I want to own YELP 20% lower. But I think it trades much higher, maybe over $100 within two years. **So, clearly, I had to own some ahead of earnings. If this is their breakout quarter and I missed it, I would’ve never forgiven myself.** You can view my position as a hedge against my ego.”

    You were 60% cash at the time, hit a homerun, I think you will again, but “loaded up” and “had to own some of it” is revisionist history, no?

    I would chagrin at casual inferences such as these tarnish a brilliant lustre with cheap turns of phrase. lol.

    Yelp to $120 though all the same.

    I will resume minding my own business now
