Hi All,

Does anybody think this has anymore running to do or slow or down from here? Somewhere I read they have a new weight loss program that should keep it running up.

Thanks & Happy New Year,

GLTA!

[MWM]

Maybe

[AntiMarketMaker]

Actually it has been hard for China to crack on them lol The group that had the 79% short against NUS did everything to destroy the company. They even gave the Chinese govt data to destroy NUS. At the end... NUS won, and they are still covering their short lol

[AntiMarketMaker]

go over ttnp

[lady glueck]

yes, your wife has the right nose. happy xmas. one a half milli is a nice family income for 2013...wanna adopt me?

[MWM]

I hope they run this all the way to $200, sooner or later China will crack down on these guys and then its game over...

[MWM]

Those were Nov puts from the second week of November, the stock was flat while I had them, the squeeze came later...

I usually only play short term weekly options...

So haha right back at ya...

Yes, I'm a nasty gal. and I was stupid and greedy.

[MWM]

Large Unusual Call volume today, something is up!

Radar!

[MWM]

NUS in a few $105 puts here for the week at .45, chart not looking so hot imo...

[MWM]

Explosion in China...

China is not a big fan of US companies to begin with, only a matter of time before the Chinese Gov't steps in...

[MWM]

NUS is a Monster Short here! Their Last Q showed that 42% of their Rev's are now coming from China, China is exploding for them. The only problem is that China Outlaws pyramid schemes and now that NUS is no longer under the radar I bet a blindsiding is coming for this stock...

Citron article really good on this one, earnings came out after and NUS showed an even bigger reliance on China.

Tic Tic Tic...

Regardless of what happens with next week’s earnings, it does not take a genius stock analyst
to understand that something is not right with Nu Skin. Their operations in China are running
away from its competition and there is a reason behind it- THEY ARE OPERATING ILLEGALLY. I
know, the Chinese Press knows it and sooner or later the market will react to it. This is not a
debate, this is a matter of fact.

[Nyago]

I bought back in the same day I sold since it took a huge dip. =) loving this stock right now.

[AntiMarketMaker]

i have no idea when to sell my left overs. I set stop at $100

Q3 earnings transcript

[Nyago]

Congrats on all who hold. I sold all my share this morning!!!

[Nyago]

Hmmm I don't havealot in this might just take the risk to get my first pot of money...

[AntiMarketMaker]

I left some, but NUS is well known for attacks by Hedgies on the short side. I have enough left to make some good money.

[Nyago]

Why getting out so fast? Isn't the financial announcement next month where the biggest move will be?

[AntiMarketMaker]

I have $10k left lol I out! lol The hedge fun short numbers climbing too fast. The mofokers setting a short position.

[lady glueck]

congratzzzz. got out a bit earlier but still happy!

[AntiMarketMaker]

$93 baby! weeeeee! I gave you this gem! I made $456,768 so far off this bitch lol

[Seymore1721]

Somehow my $2.95 free gift turned into two $97 charges to my credit card, which I just reported to the fraud division of my credit card. So if Nuskin has been reporting these charges as revenues, they will be restating their revenues before long. Could be a good short

[Nyago]

Congrats on new 52 week high!! I see $120 real soon =)

[investora2z]

The company has hopes from its upcoming launch of ageLOC TR90. It had raised its Q3 guidance to between $790 and $810 million, and earnings per share is likely to be $1.35 to $1.40 based on the expected sales from the new product. For the full fiscal 2013, the revenue forecast was increased by $90 million to $3 billion, and the earnings per share is expected to be $5.05 to $5.15. The stock has done great for the investors, especially over the last few months. It is up more than 130% on a ytd basis, and seems to be good for more. Of course, there may be corrections, especially if the overall market correction runs deeper. More will depend on the fundamental performance of the company, and it needs to focus on the geographical markets where it is not growing that fast. It faces strong competition from the direct selling market players like Herbalife (HLF), Mary Kay, Oriflame, Avon (AVP) and Amway. A smaller company Chromadex Corporation (CDXC) has developed two proprietary ingredients pterostilbene and nicotinamide riboside which are useful for skin care and anti-aging. Nu Skin will need to launch new innovative products from time to time to maintain the growth in sales. Analysts are still upbeat on the stock and JPMorgan Cazenove raised the PT from $82.50 to $97. Deutsche Bank raised their PT from $80 to $100. These targets indicate significant upside potential from the current levels. The average price target is around $88. The valuations are reasonable, as the stock is trading at 22 times ttm earnings and 15 times forward earnings. The PEG ratio of 0.72 implies that there good expectations of growth in the market. The good work needs to be continued because, after such a huge rise, slippages will not be taken kindly.

Galvanic Spa has become a $450 million product today

I was told by a recruting leader for NU Skin that they are releasing a new product on a convention in October. Might just be something they say to get new recruits excited, but same time last year they had a nice run.

[Catchme4]

Cashing out

[AliEn BRaInZ stox]

No doubt..

[crawfish poboy]

Sick, sick, sick chair kick... Props to citron

[AliEn BRaInZ stox]

I'd love to see a spike to $48 to come in short again.

[crawfish poboy]

I'm thinking after this weeks OPEX is when things will get ugly... too many open put contracts that need to expire worthless.

[crawfish poboy]

The NUS is cinched up... someone kick the chair.

[crawfish poboy]

Bit more...

[crawfish poboy]

Nice crack this morning... let's have a bit more.

[lady glueck]

I watched the CNBC Asia interview with Citron and they sound to be spot on in their allegations that Nu Skin is violating China trade law.

this stock will go back to 5 or 10 bucks again. LOL

you might consider NUS will pay their taxes and some additional extras to their friends
in the chinese government for marketing on multiple levels lol and that´s it then!

bad times for Citron followers, cover and amen is all I say! lol

battleground stock, here is another story:
