COULD SEE UPSIDE ON SKECHERS

Opinion from finbox.io

GO FOR THE DIVIDENDS (NLY, ARCC)

ARCC is at 15.60 and NLY trading at 10.06...  Pehaps it is time to jump in these two stocks.

GOING LONG ON CCJ

Back in the game with CCJ, trading today at 11.82; betting that it could find support now at a seven year low.

AYR HOLDS FIRM

Markets down about 1.5% this morning, AYR is holding at 20.57 with a slight gain aided by insider buying. This action could be viewed as a sign of resilience.

WHAT WE HAVE LEARNED FROM MARKET CRASHES

Today may turn out to be one of the worst market days in recent history.
We are keeping our eyes on securities that have the most resistance to the trend; in other words, track the stocks that hold their value while the rest plunge.  Soon enough these companies will present buying opportunities as the dust settles.
Meanwhile, hold on tight, it's going to be a rough ride!

NOT DONE YET - TRS

Another dismal day for TRS.  It is obvious that the selloff is not over, we must be patient in finding a comfortable entry point.  Trading this morning at 16.55, down another 11%.

TROUNCING OF TRS - IS IT AN OVERREACTION?

Since July 1 of this year, we have seen the price of TRS deteriorate from the 29.60 level.  

This morning, after an earnings report that missed estimates coupled with lower forecasts, the stock is trading at 18.90, down 17% for the day and a 37% loss in just over one month. 

Trading volume in the first ninety minutes is triple the daily average.  At this point, I believe that we are experiencing and overreaction and could see a partial bounce back in the next few weeks.  

HAPPY RETURNS FROM GDOT

Looking back at our February 10, 2015 post we saw possibilities for a turn around on GDOT (then at 15.22).
It is obvious that patience paid out in a big way.  Yesterday the stock closed at 21.52 after a surge of 6.21, a gain of 40.56% for the day.
After four and one half months, we see a 41.39% return on the suggestion.

CYBER SECURITY PLAY UPDATE

Back on February 16 of this year an obvious play on cyber security came into view.  In that post HACK (an ETF), then trading at 28.24 was mentioned as a good candidate for future upside potential. Yesterday's closing price of 32.46 represents an approximate gain of 15% compared to a loss of the S&P 500 of close to 1% for the same period (four months).  To date, investing in HACK has proven to be a good move... not done, yet.

UPDATE ON FAX

This may be an opportune time to add to FAX (5.38) holdings.  Read following link and decide for yourself.  FAX was mentioned in this blog on 10/20/14 and on 2/16/15...  a bit early, but patience may pay in the long run.

FOLLOWING IYG

One way to profit from the Costco decision to cut ties with American Express and go with Citi Visa is by investing in IYG (90.39), an ETF with sizable holdings on C and V.

OIL WILL REBOUND

If you think that oil will rebound in the near future, then a good stock to place your bets is in ATW.  Expect support at the 50 dma (approx. 29.90).  Trading this a.m. at 30.62, it presents us with a buying opportunity provided support holds.
