READY TO PUT THE “POOR” BACK INTO POORTFOLIO

It’s about that time of year again. This is where guys make a dash for trash into year end.

I’ve been pondering the question…what stocks would I catagorize as trash, dog shit, poor man’s treasure, etc.

I’m compiling a list as we speak. My time frame is long enough to ensure your holiday stockings are chock full o’ shit.

A few early thoughts….$P, $TWTR, $TRIP, $ACIA, $MEET, $TWLO.

Have some others you care to share?

Criteria…

– not so much as an uptick in 2017

– the kind of stock that makes you almost throw up in your mouth

    Just got done with MNKD???. GPRO looks acceptable. I keep on wanting to buy UVXY which is certainly trash.

    I really like $POT into year end if it can get out of this channel. Dead money for a year and a half with every opportunity to break the 2008 lows. Somehow held the line.

    You may be a little late. Every piece of shit, money-thieving, rapist management, BS press release-issuing, turner of $thousands into ones, biotech has already been squirting.

      That giant turd $ENT we went into earlier this year appears to be rounding into form, looking a little lower with some buyers as an entry.

    Grabbed some $UA calls today – not a lot of premium in these either; guess trash is trash until people decide it’s treasure……mkt has given good entries in $TRIP, $ACIA, and $UA recently

      Every time in the last 5 years $ESRX has run the stops like this, it has made a major reversal to the upside, May ’18 should be plenty of time.

    Looking at $EIGI, $P, for earnings plays (or at least trades where I am going to have to get thru earnings).

    I’m also really interested in $BCS and $DB.

    Some very interesting shorts as well. I love the idea of $COHR.

    • ThomasJefferson

      Upon closer inspection from a few different angles, there are qualities of this $COHR that look like a broadening pattern into a consolidation (looking at the 12 month daily). There aren’t really many checks with the upper end of the range on the consolidation, but I can still see something there.

      I remember we talked about a couple of those recently…. does anyone remember the tickers? I’m trying to see how they resolved.

      ALERT ON INFI WHEN MARK AT OR BELOW 1.43 is triggered MARK=1.36 IMPL VOL=115.90%
