About market, TAPE was in overdrive from open until close, closing near high of the day. Economic activity is perking up in USA which is boosting confidence in equity investing, many had sold in panic due to COVID-19, now they are all backing up the truck, thus unbelievable recovery in recouping all losses. All this euphoria is making me extremely cautious and doing fast trading based on gains. When it seems too good, be warned!

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

Saleem,

You are fearless. Casino/Oil/NGas/Airline/Cruises stocks in the mix says it all. Good luck with the trades in DAL and CIEN. Glad to see $$$ in the making.

Stocktrader, I too added ENPH at 52.95. The comparison on SEDG and ENPH with ENPH gaining market share was it for me to trigger a buy.

Added KRA back at 16.75

Sold HEPA at 2.01 to book profits and build cash pool
Sold ACOR at 0.75 to book profits and build cash pool

Thanks

Hi Paramjeet,

Yes exactly on the ENPH/SEDG. I'll be looking to sell SEDG later today having missed my early chance.

Good luck with profit taking and new ideas!

Hi Stocktrader,

Bought GH @84. The price felt right.

ELY could go much higher it seems. Will see if it backs down for a good entry.

Thanks

Paramjeet

stocktrader_1996 said...

Hi Paramjeet,

I am really surprised how constrained ELY has been. I feel like something's not quite right there, but I'm not sure what because I felt the conference call was pretty good.

I made a mistake dumping a lot of my consumer discretionary and chip exposure. I try to stay diversified but I hate seeing any position struggle for a while. Then suddenly investor appetite changes and you're stuck with the new laggards lol.

stocktrader_1996 said...

Hi Paramjeet,

Oh, and good luck with GH. It's actually a re-opening play in my opinion. I'd tried to shift a lot of my tech exposure to those with "re-opening" exposure like recent buys of SQ LYFT GH ADPT. I don't want to have a pure-play stay-at-home right now - it seems too dangerous.

Hi Stocktrader & Paramjeet,

Sold CRWD @ $92.75.....

Hi stocktrader & Paramjeet,

Bought MGM @ $21.25....

Saleem

stocktrader_1996 said...

Hi Saleem,

Good luck with re-deployment of funds. CRWD was a teaser!

Bought SAIL @ 22.54

I think the stock is supported by a good combination of growth and valuation, and has the added potential for a takeover.

LK is on fire!!! Held from 2.33

stocktrader_1996 said...

Hi Paramjeet,

Up 100% and still going!

Stocktrader

psrajpal said...

Good luck with MDM, Saleem. AAL and MDM are on fire too.

I am stuck with few laggards particularly BLPH (bought after 13$ secondary), CLVS (bought after 7$ secondary) and CATS. I do believe that these stocks will bounce back soon on the upside particulary CATS due to inherent value.

Sold VSTM @ 1.84
Bought ELY at 16.39
Added more GAN @ 20.17

LK is a life savor today. 5+ in the making.

Hi Saleem/StockTrader/Param,

Hi Explorer,

Earnings are tough to predict in terms of market reaction, look @ CiEN beat by a mile but down on the day.

Saleem

stocktrader_1996 said...

Hi Paramjeet/Explorer,

Good luck with the new/added positions!

The market has a seemingly endless bid, even on days like today. You just have to be in the right sector for the day/week.

My favorite NVAX got DOD contract AH. I had a hunch and was about to buy AH, but instead Added 20% ALT - bummer..

NVAX could rise 25% tomorrow and ALT could follow with 15%. BTW, I am not an astrologer but am trying.. :)
