Some Names to Keep On Watch

576 views

Here are some possible shorts, based on Earl Fly’s screen in The PPT. Members can see the full thing here.

BCOV and SKY (Especially BCOV)

Did I mention I am absolutely wrecked? Having crushed myself, once again.

US index futures are barely up, but VIX futures are down almost 1.7%. I foresee a market that trades up, but basically flat tomorrow. (I could also be completely wrong). I am looking for stocks that have momentum behind them, with good hybrid scores, and volume. Volume is going to be key tomorrow, as all traders will have to “pick their shots.” I am raising cash and looking for my last winners into tax day, I’m looking for a few percent– here and there –because I want to keep my winship and limit risk. These are some names that I think may provide that, based on this screen, (sorry, friendo, members only).

I’m sorry but my Vikings Recap is going to have to wait, I am beat.

Solar, Made in Chiner

1,664 views

I wonder what Lenny Dykstra thinks about Chinese Solar?

I don’t care for anything Chinese, except for their delicious food, especially the fine Dim Sum cooked up by the folks down at City View Dim Sum. I can’t tolerate a culture that creates a demand for the killing of my namesake. Why the demand? Well, they think by consuming Rhino horns, tiger penises, and other animal parts, that they will magically become hung. Well, at least hung more like a circus peanut, rather than their current light switch like state.

FACT: THIS IS NOT GOING TO HELP THEM. Instead, they are supporting the poaching of endangered species, which in fact, hurts us all. These are the same folks that have let a numerous species go extinct because of their own stupidity/laziness/gluttony . Just like these River Dolphins. If you are offended by this, you are offended by the truth, so maybe you have some soul searching to do? Or perhaps you are without soul, phallus, and top hat?

Obviously, a people who can’t even bother to care about the extinction of a species that dates back 20 million years– which they believed to have magical powers –could never be good at making renewable/green energy technology. Right. Thus, I covered my STP short for a 70% win today. Here are my other Chinese Solar shorts.

JASO +22.71%

LDK +23.03%

TSL +16.02%

How you like them apples? Don’t forget to watch “Rhino Wars,” on Animal Planet. Let’s stop this bull shit.

It’s All Very Stupid

827 views

I’m rather tempted to not finish my invasion story. It’s rather difficult for me to write about, and I just don’t seem to get the views that i thought I would. This is further exacerbated by the FUCKING MORONS, who leave comments telling me I am wrong about how the military does things, BUT HAVE NEVER FUCKING SERVED. Sorry for being profane, but I believe the gravity of the situation warranted it. Onward.

This market is stupid, and someone’s got their finger on the “reset button.” So, I am currently getting my sell on. I want cash. Laggards have to go, and so do swing trades.

Sold:

XIN -5.71%

LL +6.4%

CVI -16.64% (I’m sick of looking at it)

FLY +1.38%

Oh, and I can’t forget that I just covered STP for a humble 71.72% win.

Thus raising cash to almost 30%

[EDIT: I sold my tiny positions in TZA and FB for -22.48% and -20.82%, receptively. I do not associate with pathetic losers, and could not stand to see them polluting my book.]

Rhino fun fact of the day: I never went to preschool, because I started reading and writing right as I turned four years old, I just wanted to. My birthday is at the end of July, so the stupid doctors tried to tell my parents if I didn’t go to pre-school, and having such a late birthday, that I would most likely have to take kindergarten over again. My parents told those heartless idiots to go get bent, and I was the top of my class in reading and math, after barely turning 5, in a class with plenty of 6-year-olds. Stupid doctors.

Damn it feels good to be a gangsta large land mammal. I did in fact make a little of money today, in le market. RGR, LL, GILD, and NFLX continue to slap shorts. Though I took hits in UA, LULU, SWHC, ELLI, and PMM. I was up rather well in PMM, and this is a name I have a lot of the lady’s money in. It has been taking a beating lately, but this is purely because it has a tax free monthly dividend, which makes it a much more liquid fixed income stock.

Thus, holders of the name are selling in order to take profits, and gamble with high beta names before tax day. I’m happy to say that my TSLA position is finally in the green, only by 0.08%, but nonetheless, it’s profitable. I see so many Model S’s everyday, I would hope so. CVI is one of my positions fighting for profits, but I have faith in Senior Tropicana’s refiners.

I ran one of my favorite bullish screens again. Members of The PPT can find the screen here.

With the following criteria:

  • Under 5% from 52 week high.
  • Average volume over 250,000.
  • Quarterly earnings growth over 10%.
  • Quarterly revenue growth over 20%.
  • Market cap over $1 billion.
  • Return on equity over 10%
  • Short interest over 10%.
  • Sorted by the percentage of months up during March.

We’re seeing some names repeat themselves, and I am already long LL, RGR, and CVI. CVI crushed earnings, by the way– mind you. Possible “Icahn Effect?” I like TRIP and LGF too, I may look to lock in some profits in the morning, then get long these two names.

I’m waiting to cover my Chinese Solar shorts– see here –and may use the proceeds to buy the aforementioned names.

It’s gamble time into tax day.

BREAKING: Asia is Getting Raided by Vikings

3,283 views

At the current time Asian indices are beaten down, but US futures are only slightly down. Japan’s Kuroda said he would ramp up production on the printing presses, going “Full Kurosawa” on Japanese equities, making everyone notice. Meanwhile, across the Sea of Japan and the South China Sea, indices are getting attacked by rabid Vikings, armed with sequestration and the Chinese making mortgage rules more restrictive.

Asian marketsPain and suffering. US futures are barely down, but how does Europe react is the question right now? That could really be the tell of how we trade, but of course, it also could not. I was really bullish on this week with the news that Japan was planning on printing more, and that the President had hired a lady from Wally World to keep his books balanced. Instead, here we are teetering on disaster again. We have no clue what effect the sequester is going to have on US markets, or what effect it and Asia will have on Europe, and Europe’s correlation with the US. It just seems to be changing constantly.

I rarely find myself going to bed “knowing” how the market opens in the morning, this is definitely not one of those nights. To help myself sleep a little better, I read @chessNwine ‘s Weekly Strategy Session, here, a paid service either by itself, or as a component to the #12631. Trying to pick winners in this implied tape is going to be tough, but maybe my man @mr_cardan can recoup some of his losses from his TVIX position. If you’re a degenerate gambler, maybe you try to play some options in the insane swinging volatility, only if you want to get all Mickey Rourke about it.

I think I’ll just sit back and let my book work, or not work. Either way, I think the only trading I will be doing is selling defensively. I always say that though, and end up trading anyways. The one thing I know, is that there is always a way to make money, so I guess that optimism is my downfall, (or drive?), who knows. Here are futures at the current time, I will be back at 1 am PST when Europe opens.

RAISE THE MINIMUM!

468 views

If you read my post about the SOTU– that was featured on Market Watch, mind you –then you would know that I think the big boxes are shorts. Why? Because they rely on large sales volume, to counteract their small margins. It’s funny really, that the Great Leader of the west, King Barack, who supposedly loves the peons and the middle class, keeps torching them. This time, in letting the pay-roll tax cut expire, people have less money to spend on the products sold by WMT and TGT, products made in acid rained factories in Chiner. At the same time, these companies will have to start firing their greeters, and other employees, as the impending rise of the minimum wage comes swarming, like locusts, over the horizon.

Top Picks: short WMT TGT

How much was South Korea down on the news that their Loki like brother to the north had tested a nuke? Why -0.26% , while the rest of Asia, especially Japan, were going Bonzai on shorts. Now here we are, slowly and steadily climbing higher, close to all time highs. I know you would like to buy cocaine fueled names, but how is ZNGA doing for you today? This is how markets are supposed to be, gentlemen sipping tea and paled ales, as opposed to barbarians and gorillas snorting mounds of cocaine and drinking 40 ounced King Cobras.

My book is looking rather weird though, WHR is up 3.5% , yet the WNR is down 1.09% and so is YCS. I also am rather perplexed by the continued lawn darting of EXK. When we look at the best performing sectors in The PPT, it’s obvious that builders are leading the charge. Let’s have a look:

Now, I have exposure through ELLI, HON, and WHR, but I will be looking for names that either got smashed sideways in 2008 and haven’t recovered, or names looking to grow. Another plus would be a dividend. These are great for older clients who don’t like technology. I really like SAM here, and will look to buy on a pull back, or on some heavy volume. Chart:

In other news, why did CNBC try to have an interview with Kate Upton talking about business? Anyone?
