adx crossed while the cmf was in the red and trending back up..what follows is you get to set back and enjoy the gains.
Im still out here trading and still on the plan.

Hello Chartinator and Ken....

planning on renewing my ss subscription any day... thank you for the transcript.. it was great. Read it twice... two of your stocks i found myself last week FBC and LNG by using your setups.

Missing you guys in the chat room and im missing out on the good news and good picks.

One i had to throw at you ...LTS which i have been building a position in... today...finally they reported almost 800,000 shares of insider purchases.... chart looked like it was gonna explode past the 200 day sma... take a look and share it.

HISC years ago took over evans and awarded hisc shareholders with free shares of evans stock for being hisc shareholders...then afterwards they were suppose to use it as a shell to get uplisted or buy other businesses etc.... but hisc became hisu then something else and now one of the rileys has decided to take wtct which use to be evans and make into something.

years. but you know its only been until recently that a riley has decided to do something with WTCT. lets see when i write them if he will allow my shares to become unrestricted.

well... called scottrade and they gave me a address of a transfer agent in michigan:
bay city transfer agency
300 center avenue
suite 202ber st
bay city mi 48708

and i called them and talked to tom... nice enough fella that said bascially they are caught in the middle and my chances of getting my shares unrestricted are slim and none.
That i would have to contact the company itself in order to get some kind of permission on the certificates that i/we/them hold to be unrestricted but that may take an attorney.

sheesh!!!! i know you guys are enjoying trading this but man oh man what a fudged up mess it has been.

well well well the dead live again......

i never...ever...never thought i would ever see anything happen with this shell stock and i certainly didnt think the Rileys had the guts to actually try and do another round of penny stock running but i am wrong on both counts... well at least the devil i know is better than the devil i knew in Mr Frank Moody may he be cast into a deep pit never to be heard from again.
I got... over 17000 shares that have been laying there for years that were given to me by yee old HISC/HISU/GRBT and im not sure how to get them activated but ... im gonna find a way. Hopefully make some of my money back.

Well folks how is it going? This market is soooooo bad. ..and thats a understatment in itself.Been very very very very busy and neglected all my WU stockseasonality friends so much that i wouldnt blame all of you to put me on ignore.
That being said i hope you dont. lol

went back and listened to the cc of the 1st quarter and folks forget all the positive things that were said even the one analyst who was asking questions was surprised by gbe's group having double digit sales growth which beat their industry and they only included 1.8 million of the cost reductions which there will be a total of 20 million to be seen for the year and they are still projecting profitablity.

downloaded and read the entire transcript.... i have been holding and buying more for the last couple weeks....great opp for us to get in at below what insiders where paying just a few months ago.

welp im ready to pull the trigger on 20000 shares if and when they decide enough is enough and the stock begins to stablize. Silly but when the market gets crushed like it did all week....

have to say that now im worried.....

was hoping for a rebound... but gbe looks to be breaking down now... its below the lower bb band and finished below it today.... also the channel trend has gone bearish... if they dont get some type of catalyst this week... we will see 1.60's

well... i think the company has to prove itself first.... new ceo and just coming out of recession the market wants to see that this company is taking hold of turning the corner last quarter and actually going to return to growth and profitablility again. plus there have been two institutions collecting shares... goldman sachs and one other have been trying to buy.
finally... the stock has went up almost 4x's since the bottom last year...its turning sideways in its trend now... but your right about the 2.25 level... gbe hit a triple top breakout on its p and f chart this week....this is the third time it has tryed and failed to breakout... a stock will always retrace a little... but 2.00 looks like as low as they will let it drop with earnings a few weeks away.
GBE has been very aggressive in the last months... commercial realestate is rebounding....they are expanding offices...and the REIT's... the last post showed based on those numbers they are the best value in their sector.... and they still havent hit their price target yet... buy on dips or swing to keep your average down.... eventually its going to reflect what we know already.Plus the market is building for the next leg up or a minor correction... either way that will effect every stock we own.

Press Release Source: Grubb & Ellis Healthcare REIT II, Inc. On Tuesday April 13, 2010, 5:22 pm
CLEVELAND, April 13 /PRNewswire/ -- Grubb & Ellis Healthcare REIT II, Inc. today announced that it has acquired Parkway Medical Center, a two-building medical office portfolio totaling approximately 88,000 square feet in the Cleveland suburb of Beachwood. The acquisition closed on April 12, 2010.

Located at 3609 and 3619 Park East Drive, Parkway Medical Center is approximately 10 miles from the Cleveland Central Business District and just one-half-mile from the 53-acre Ahuja Medical Center currently being developed by University Hospitals, one of the top 10 health systems in the nation based on performance, according to a study released in 2009 by Thomson Reuters. Parkway Medical Center also enjoys close proximity to Interstate 271, affording tenants easy access to all of Greater Cleveland.

"Parkway Medical Center is well located in a major metropolitan region and less than one mile from what will be a significant new hospital," said Danny Prosky, president and chief operating officer. "As we build Grubb & Ellis Healthcare REIT II, we are not only targeting attractive, performing medical-related assets located near significant medical campuses, we are also seeking to attain geographic diversification, which we are clearly achieving with our initial acquisitions."

Including Parkway Medical Center, Grubb & Ellis Healthcare REIT II has acquired properties near Cleveland, New Orleans and St. Cloud, Minn. A fourth potential acquisition is located near Denver.

The larger of Parkway Medical Center's two buildings, approximately 51,000 square feet, was built in 1972, while the smaller building, approximately 37,000 square feet, was built in 1987. Since 2004, nearly $1.6 million has been invested in capital improvements at Parkway Medical Center, including upgraded lobbies, hallways, replaced parking lots, roofs and lighting, as well as the installation of new HVAC systems and boilers. The facility is currently 87 percent leased to 35 tenants, including University Hospitals of Cleveland, Rapid Medical Research, The MetroHealth System and ID Consultants.

Parkway Medical Center was acquired from Parkway Medical Center, LLC, an unaffiliated third party represented by Bob Nosal of Grubb & Ellis Company. Grubb & Ellis Healthcare REIT II financed the acquisition using cash proceeds received from its offering.

GBE is gonna explode eventually. Strong aggressive growth company again.

Moody's says U.S. commercial real estate markets continue improvement

Commercial real estate markets across the U.S. continued to show signs of improvement, according to Moody's Investors Service Red-Yellow-Green study for first quarter 2010, which incorporates 12-month forecasts. The supply pipeline of new properties continued to shrink across almost all sectors while projected demand improved. "This quarter's numbers maintained the positive theme that began last quarter," says Moody's Vice President-Senior Analyst Keith Banhazl. "While vacancy rates remain high, generally due to the poor absorption experienced in 2009, projections show a slowdown in negative absorption over the next year." All but the two hotel sectors showed better market conditions and had higher Red-Yellow-Green scores than they did in the previous quarter. Although the largest share of markets--43%-- remain in red territory, the proportion is an improvement from the final quarter of 2009 when a majority of the markets--51%--were in red territory, according to Red-Yellow-Green. The share of markets that are green increased from 13% to 17% and that are yellow from 36% to 41%.

hi ken... had a question for you.
i went to the link and tryed to hit subscription button on the link and it keeps taking me to a log in menu instead of actually taking me to a place to buy a subscription to stock seasonality. wondering if i am doing something wrong or am i suppose to start a free subscripttion to the other websight then buy the stock seasonality subsription... very confused. lol as usual.

spenc

even when im not posting regularly i rarely go an hour without checking the board. i fully intend to join you and chart on stock seasonality soon. March and April and shaping up well for me. Solid trades and Dr Elders customized channels i adapted have really helped too.

Hit Step 77 before the close of the WU 3% Financial Freedom chart. Hello to all ...been real busy this week... Hurt my right knee really bad and then reinjured it today. Fortunatey it gave me more time to trade and was able to really make some nice trades this week. I have missed you all. I will try to be more active after today.But i have to get back to bed and let this swelling go down first. GO WU!!!!

have a great time!!! jobs report was good. Monday should be fun. Enjoy your vacation. Thanks for all you do.

spenc

Also take a look at MU after the pull back this morning. Analysist gave this a very nice target and the stock blew away earnings... nice stock to buy on a the pullback and hold.

gonna stay in GBE for now..
i had planned to sell and go liquid a couple days ago but gbe dropped a little and i was able to get in at a good dip price.
I checked the institutional buying and there are 53.8% buying the stock while 20.5% are selling and of those selling 11.5 only sold some.
The yearly channel chart is still upward trend and todays action is a turnaround of the minor dip. Still a $2.50 price target but i believe with Goldman Sachs showing up on level II last week and this week that once they get close to that target that someone will come out and upgrade them or beginning initation and this will punch it up to the $3.00 level.
The news from tuesday was ignored and it was significant as the news was when they surged from the 1.60's to the 2.20's so... not trying to convince anyone but letting you know i have done significant DD and follow this one regularly.

Wanted my WU family to know about it.

i wonder if steve liesman and rick santelli hate each other or what? i have never seen to seemingly brilliant people split hairs, argue, and flat out insult each other on natiional television the way these two do on a week to week basis...

today is the first time they have had them both on at the same time in many days and immediately they go at each other.

AVII seems to be getting close to its bottom. i dont think it will go below a dollar..but one never knows. They are about to release some level 3 news soon. :I dont own this but i am considering it.

Good Morning WU,Chartinator, and Ken.... hope everyone is ready for the last day of trading this week...looks like we open up strong.

im also trying to buy this on dips like today. This morning on cnbc they had a specialist to give his opinion on mortgages and commercial on the west coast... he was especially happy and had favorable comments on san diego...ironically grubb and ellis just reopened a main office in san diego this week. Also with a sister company like CBG getting a upgrade and goldman sachs keeps showing up on level II looking for shares.... i think another intiate or upgrade and 2.50 is gonna look cheap.

i dont believe so.... sold this morning and bought back around 2.10... when i tryed to buy several thousand shares it immediately caused it to jerk up... and im a small investor... i think there is some manpulation going on and larger players are getting some on the overall market weakness.

yep... im kinda liquidating positions today.... unless something gets oversold im gonna try to be in cash by thursday. With the job numbers coming out friday and the market being closed.... if something isnt perfect then monday will be a buying opp on favorites.

GoodMorning WU,Chartinator, and Ken

next trading level is coming now.... 2.50 not far off and then a few more upgrades and another higher price target .... bang $5 by july maybe.

gm ken... jmba looks like a great swing trade. The channel trend of that stock is looking amazing... trend is very positive and strong.

nope not me... my vacation isnt for couple months

YONG Yongye Intl. raises FY10 rev guidance to $160-165 mln vs $148.48 mln Thomson Reuters consensus; sees adj net income of 42-45 mln vs the 40.9 mln cons.

Good Morning WU,Chartinator, and Ken... ready to start the shortened trading week and i hope you are too.
