We had a great Weekly Live Q&A Chat on TradingWithCody.com/chat today and I got several emails from Marketwatch subscribers that I’ll include in a transcript digest tomorrow here on The Cody Word.
The markets are little bit calmer today than they were yesterday.
And actually, every trader who lived through yesterday’s Great Twitter Stock Market Crash should read this article.
Trading Stops: Not a Magic Solution.
Lots of action today, so let’s jump right in and hit the names.
Juniper Networks Becomes Oversold - The company’s report was all about how strong carrier demand is and how weak enterprise/government spending is. Which is just exactly our thesis. The stock is getting hurt because guidance was a bit soft, but I’m a buyer at these levels. It’s one of our smallest positions and I’ve been very patient about scaling into more, but now I am going to buy a full-size tranche, almost doubling my position here this morning while the stock is down.
First Solar is back and tradable - First Solar – Is up a lot again today, now up more than 20% from our entry price. I’m letting this one ride.
Gold: Stay bullish on gold as global chaos reigns - Gold is up again today and at new highs since our purchase of more and our add of the GLD trade. I’m also staying the course on this one for now.
ARM Holdings PLC Earnings Call Insights: Graphics ASP and Licensing Growth – I like ARMH and explained why in this Top 10 Apple Suppliers book from more than a year ago. Nothing much has changed in the overall picture since then except the company has executed on everything I outlined in that report even better than I’d expected.
Wall Street All-Stars on how to play Apple now - And finally, Apple. If Apple earns $60 this next year and $70 next year, and if the stock goes back to a 10 P/E multiple, plus you add what will be close to $200 a share in cash at that point even after the buybacks and dividends, you’d have a $900 stock sometime in 2014 or early 2015.
