iBC Mugs

Mr R.W. Pelican, iBC’s CEO of security forces, tells me there was a buzz going on about the prestigious iBC Mug, after Scott’s morning show. He suggested we start the sale of the mugs immediately, before any riots breakout within the community. Well, this is your chance, limited time of course, to Pre-order your iBC coffee mug. email me @ [email protected]

Speaking of coffee, here are some notes on GMCR in the User Notes section of The PPT, start reading from the bottom up. This is what goes on daily on the other side of iBC:

And, mrKCbill came to play in the 3rd quarter, this one is going to come down to the wire.

Here is a link to the tournament, don’t miss the second half.

As for the market, Listen to Scott and become a member of The PPT.

It’s almost a joke trying to trade this market as we wind down the first quarter of 2010, at this point you’re better off buying calls in the VIX. For the non-option players out there, [[VXX]] will get it done.

Flu stocks moved today on above average volume. Here are a few that made my watchlist, keep them on your radar.

[[CVM]] Full disclosure, I own this one, and will be adding to it on strength:

[[HEB]] Here is one I played today, bought in @ 0.77, when the volume arrived, and looking for further strength tomorrow. This one could run if it can get into gap:

[[BCRX]] Closed above the 50 day today, but still has a lot of overhead resistance:

Rite Aid Corporation [[RAD]] This is a stock I am up on and debating if I should let it roll into earnings. The charts looks damn good, if somehow Wednesday’s report is bullish, this one could rip further. However, with that being said, I will likely sell tomorrow:

PPT members, remember that you can always search user notes with key words like swine flu, here is the link. This is how I found [[INO]]

And, SC takes the lead after the first quarter in the 2010 Championship game.

I will be updating this post throughout the day with charts that interest me.

Harvest Natural Resources, Inc. [[HNR]] this is my stock of the year, and is breaking out.

[[GAME]] This are a few PPT members who bought this one on the dip. The PPT ranks it a buy and has a fundamental score of 4.90, very high. I like this for a gap fill trade:

I would buy Crocs, Inc. [[CROX]] here, with a stop below $8:

Citizens Republic Bancorp, Inc. [[CRBC]] is one we caught for a quick 10% move in The PPT, still looks good for further upside:

[[HEB]] Here is a small biotech bomb waiting to breakout, I will wait for volume to enter:

More charts later…

Thie looks to be a great matchup between one of the world’s largest banks, Bank of America Corporation [[BAC]] & an IT company that provides services & solutions to the United States defense and federal civilian government agencies, Stanley, Inc. [[SXE]] .

A big congratulations to JakeGint and Popimp for making it to the Final Four, but only the strong survive. So my hat go off to SC & mrKCbill for making it to the big game.

Here is an update to on the brackets, and for fun, I added the total % Gainers of all the picks since the inception of the tournament. It looks like Gunners would have won if  the contest was based on the highest % gainer, with his pick in Callon Petroleum Company [[CPE]], up over a cool 75% .

Should be a fun week.
