Todd Akin’s trading plans for the day.
Stocks are down modestly after a huge run last week. Is this the top or a buying opportunity? Not sure. But being down only 50 after nearly 400 points up means people either aren’t wanting to sell, or strong demand is soaking up the selling. We want to see if this new round of quantitative easing…
We are closely eyeing aem and petm, two of our core holdings. See our previous coverage for full analysis. While we would have like to trim aem today, we feel the stock is headed higher in the short-term. We view any pull back as a buying opportunity. PETM has underperformed the portfolio recently after its big run…
Well folks, this was definitely the time we have been waiting for since the inception of our portfolio and the site. The market has rallied to 3 year highs and still counting. Our options plays yesterday were enacted to take advantage of the momentum from the fed without using much cash and defining our risk. Because, afterall, we…
Thursday’s announcement by the Fed jolted the markets as this is exactly what bulls have been waiting for- more easing. However, this time around, the plan is a little different because the Fed said it would not specify the amounts or time periods for buying back these housing mortgages (where the plan is to lower…
Market hit new highs last week. Had some pretty good things happen to the portfolio but we are under invested. Once we get the pullbacks we need, we will add accordingly and send you updates when we do. (Sign up to receive alerts via email free). Folks, last week shows how you always want to be…
Strong stocks across the board today into the close. Waiting on some better entry points to add to our names. We added CAT to our watch list. We pulled the trigger on Pulte Homes PHM today because it has broken out of a 5 year range and it seems like other housing companies are doing the same….
Averages are flat this Friday, but stocks in our portfolio are up. We are following through with our advice from yesterday and trimming into this rip. We have received 10% gains in a number of our core holdings so instead of selling half or all of the position, we trimmed 10% out of the stock. So,…
Stocks in our portfolio performed well today closing strong into the close. All of our names continued to work higher which indicates that we have the right stocks for when a bull market returns. Exciting times folks. Maybe tomorrow we will blow past the new highs, who knows. But don’t get emotional, and continue to watch your…
Markets got a huge move today on news from Europe stating that they have enacted a bond buyback program much similar to the U.S. in the sense that they are both intended to act as backstop should those economies slow. This is a huge announcement in our opinion. We were not permabulls just hoping for qe3 like others supposedly were. We…
Markets are hovering around the 20 day still (orange line). There are doji’s forming (trade professor: candlesticks) which are mildly bearish signs of indecision. We are still in a technically constructive market so stocks look good. We don’t know how long this positive setup will last though because of the deceleration out of China and U.S in August….
