Here were my predictions for 2014.
Doing these predictions is always tricky, because we tend to think in the now, a time when people are sucking on candied canes and spending money like drunken idiots. Nevertheless, Santa Fly will grant you prophecy and will foretell the events that have yet to transpire for the year 2015.
Gold and silver will continue to be viewed as “the idiot trade”, finally sending the yellow metal under $1,000.
Oil will trade in a range of $45 to $60 throughout the year, breaking out in December of 2015–setting up for a banana run to the upside in oil related names.
OPEC will cut production quotas.
US rig count will fall by 25%.
US GDP will grow by 3.2%.
Tech stocks will lead the market in 2015.
The S&P will rise by 11.5%, Dow Jones by 15.5%, Nasdaq by 23.7%.
European markets will outperform US markets and China will outperform all, rising by 55%.
Software companies will undergo consolidation.
Social media stocks will rebound sharply.
YELP will be acquired for $85.
FB will trade north of $100.
BABA will trade above $150.
TWTR will be rangebound, between $35-50. The stock will break out once Dick C gets fired.
Treasuries will weaken in the first half of 2015, then firm up in the summer. For the most part, TLT will be a non-event.
Housing stocks will return to greatness, leading the industrial sector higher.
2015 will be the year of the US Consumer. With an improving jobs and fuel expense landscape, popular stores and restaurants will enjoy record profits.
Amazon will finally turn on the profit spigot, sending shares over $500.
NFLX will double in price, to over $700 per share.
TSLA will trade down by 30%.
AAPL will hit $140 and hint at making a television.
JUNO will be one of the best biotech investments in 2015.
HABT will trade north of $65.
Shake Shack will file to IPO and become “The Fly’s” largest position ever.
Private equity will have a banner year, fueled by oil and gas debt restructuring. BX will trade north of $50.
iBankCoin’s long awaited release of the second iteration of The PPT will be realized, sending the financial website into a renaissance of extreme winship, both shared and appreciated by her millions of readers.

Nice! NFLX and AMZN especially.
One more, RSH will surge back to greatness announcing the opening of new stores in Cuba, where they will send loads of 8086 processors, soldering irons and rotary dial telephones, that have been warehoused since the 1980’s awaiting shipment.
Lol tandy’s for everyone.
Wish I had taken shorted HLF or bought some puts based on ‘Nerds will win’ 2014 predictions you made!
if oil gets over $59.27 area this week it will get over $60
What about GPRO? please make prediction for that. $100 xmas of course didn’t happen
Sorry, I used up all of my plutonium on these predictions. Anything that I say now is simply a guess.
Please guess away for GPRO
GPRO will hit $100
No. SHAQ
solar stocks double. $FSLR $SUNE
Please STFU about Shake Shack. We need to keep it on the DL until after the IPO. Now what are your thoughts on IWN and XIV going into ’15?
XIV goes up 50%+
What would be the Shake Shack ticker symbol?
Shck
No interest in the healthcare sector for 2015?
XLV’s the only part of the S&P close to your 30% call this year.
Biotech has had a monster run. Time to rotate into tech.
falling oil price results in reduced domestic production and worsens the trade deficit, which pushed the govt to extend tax benefit for renewables. solars rally, announce yield-co’s and double by december.
Are these predictions or a wish list?
strong dollar is very bullish for US tech, historically speaking.
Just wanna thank you for all your
work and the ride we all got to enjoy.
It gets better every year even though I got banned for a time this year. Bon Natale
Is there anyone who isn’t bullish on 2015?
The usual suspects. Martin Armstrong, Harry Dent, Gerald Celante, (haven’t checked but I’m sure he’s still wearing a bearsuit) Marc Faber, all of ZeroHedge.
And if there’s any minor correction in 2015, all of the above will point to it and say how prescient they were with their forecasts.
Stupid Silver stocks! AG used to be so damn fun to trade.
Will PPT V2 be a model update? Or a feature update?
Gonna be a very good year.

Dr. Fly – What housing stocks do you have your eye on? I’ve noticed a few homebuilders have been appearing on my PPT accumulation screener for the last 1 1/2 months. KBH & LEN seem to have have been the most frequent. LL is also a frequent visitor.
TOL, BZH
I’m taking this seriously, and building a list. Thank you.
Well $NG seems to be taking a massive dive today after breaking year-long support.
Gold $1000 ? Hahahhaha how about $1400.. When u sold GPRO .. I knew it is gonna go up ! Lol
If you like Shake Shack, then look into Draft Kings and Fan Duel. They are taking the football gambling money from the casinos. This is disruptive technology. I “bet” lol… that one of these get public next late summer.
My 2015 Predictions: CROCs will become fashionable again and the stock will go to $100. Chia Pets will be one of the largest IPOs of the year. Kodak will overtake both GPRO and AAPL in sales with Kodak’s combination of a action camera and smart phone. And finally, Bill Cosby will host a reality for Fox in the fall season.
