earnings on March 2, 2010.....
Keep it in mind! I believe the earnings will be very good.
i agree about the DJIA chart - the SPX by percentage confirms both of our targets ~9500 or so -
http://tinypic.com/r/wmo2lw/6
honestly kmx, i live in one of the best states in the country as far as recession resistance -
in construction we are seeing pickup in public work like schools but no new private construction -
on one hand my concrete suppliers are thinking that 2010 is going to be terrible -
on the other hand, the steel mills are starting to force price increases through on rebar -
i will tell you this, though, if i didn't make good money from trading to supplement my regular job i would be quite nervous all the time -
soy, it looks like at least MA(200)of DJ is our target...anything positive is not positive enough. The markets are playing the chart now in combination with fear and cashing the profits of last months. That looks bad for stocks imo. So it is good to stay in money. More people go for cash, the stronger the dollar gets.
What I do not understand is the volume. We had very huge red candle yesterday, but volume was much less dramatic than I would expect...
It is either positive - which I doubt so or it is the sign that the worst is still about to come...we have seen the day where no buyers took a part, but lot of sellers still did not push the button. In my opinion of course....
Here in Czech region it is bad but not as much as in Western Europe. Western Europe is absolutely pathetic now. The mood in engineering companies is under zero. How is the US now? Unemployment rate is saying it all I guess but maybe the feeling in general is a bit different?
Copper’s Down, Next Test for Market: Philly Semis.
By Tiernan Ray
Copper’s futures are sounding an alarm, note our friends at Asbury Research. They’d warned a week ago that copper futures prices were a key indicator for overall market health, arguing that it would important for copper to stay in a support range of $3.23 to $3.27 per pound.
But copper’s broken through that support level, falling 4 cents today to $3.05 for the February futures contract. During the last week, Dow Transports have fallen 155 points, they add, and the S&P has fallen 3.3%.
The next crucial test of equity investor enthusiasm, writes Asbury, is the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index. The SOX tends to lead the tech sector, and techs tend to lead the broader market.
The SOX has broken down in the face of resistance at 337, they say, will it stay at or near a support level at 332? The SOX is at 314 today. (I would add that the Semiconductor HLDR Exchange Traded Fund (SMH) follows pretty closely the SOX.) As Asbury concludes:
How the SOX responds to this potentially bullish near term environment over the next several days will be seen as an important indication of whether the mid January decline in the US stock market continues from here, or if its larger 2009 uptrend resumes.

this week the answer is that the chinese government has ordered banks to cut lending in order to control growth -
asia is in huge red......that is funny - I am always asking - what is the difference in comparison with last week? :))
i just watched all day - i'm going to deploy an in the money call option strategy around Dow 10300 as a way to leverage my risk without having to put a bunch of money out -
soy, If I will sell now......the market will bottom....If I will keep it, market will tumble....
I am cursed... :))
i understand, my cellphone doesn't have internet, and i turned texting off -
i, too am a happy man :)
I am not on twitter, not on facebook....I am happy man :)
market sucks....but I feel I am in good stocks
are you on twitter? i did some market charting last night after raising cash all day, i think DOW 10300 is coming soon and maybe below that -
it's going to be hard to pick winners, but if i want to be long, that's what i'm going to have to do -
shit happens....company is good, chart was not good. I bought based on data, not based on chart....
I will hold it....these stocks go up as fast as they go down...very volatile
what is worring me is general mood regarding to chineese stocks....all are in red, even now on Thursday China is again in minus 1.30%..so recovery will take some days, maybe weeks .....
like you did for me with XING???
good luck soy....I will not chase this train. Next time please provide me with the links... :))
Perfect pick!!!
so it is on the move now. I wonder where it will go....100%? I see everybody is pumping it but I really have not found the link why...

Regarding TQNT:
TriQuint lifts 4Q profit forecast as sales improve
10:23 am ET 01/13/2010- Associated Press Online
Radio frequency chip maker TriQuint Semiconductor Inc. raised its fourth-quarter earnings forecast Wednesday, helped by better-than-expected sales.
The company now expects to report earnings of 9 cents to 10 cents per share and revenue of $190 million. Excluding special items, it expects earnings of 12 cents to 13 cents a share.
That's up from a previous forecast the called for adjusted earnings of 10 cents to 12 cents per share and sales of between $175 million and $185 million.
Analysts, who typically exclude special charges from their estimates, expected earnings of 11 cents per share and sales of $180.9 million, according to a Thomson Reuters poll.
TriQuint shares jumped 34 cents, or 5.8 percent, to $6.16 in morning trading.

I have sold everything yesterday...I do not like charts all over my watchlists, everything is so overbought, nice charts belong only to laggards....
And Chinese Central Bank has increased the interests on loans yesterday....I believe whether they want or not, the others will follow....and Alcoa gave the bad sentiment, even if I think in bigger picture their results are good.
I am worried about some correction on dow - and the robots sell then everything...even a good stocks. China and Japan looks scary today. Not for me, I am out....
We will see.... good luck to you.
Soy, I am dumb. I did not get it about CCME.
In they last report ended the period September 2009, they had O/S number
12,505,000
In Dec 29, 2009 they came with this announcement:
There are currently 8,355,000 public warrants issued and outstanding. Assuming exercise of all issued and outstanding public warrants, CME would receive gross proceeds of approximately $46 million and there would be a total of approximately 32.6 million common shares of CME issued and outstanding.
Prior to the Redemption Date, holders of the warrants may exercise them for common shares at an exercise price of $5.50 per share
So they have trippled the number of O/S and the PPS fell less than 20% ? And increase of PPS is expected now? I have not found any other news...
KMX - read up on CCME - i am in for some shares today, 10.69 -
This makes Citigroup - C - very bullish

MTE - ???
Merger and acquisition activity is rife in the Asia/Pacific region in the first full week of 2010, with India at the heart of the speculation and action.
Are India's state-owned operators, Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd. (BSNL) and Mahanagar Telephone Nigam Ltd. (MTNL) , going to merge? According to The Hindu Business Line, the issue was discussed earlier this week.
MTNL operates in the Metro "circles" of Delhi and Mumbai, while BSNL operates in the rest of India. (See A Guide to India's Telecom Market.)
So most probably this is a reason of sudden pop. If they merge - then I guess this one will jump much more
Oversold stocks ready to pop back up by 5-10% ?
RFMD might fit that concept very soon if not now?
TQNT needs to fill a gap on the upside, so that might be good for a 5-10%?
V needs to fill a gap on the down side and could offer a good opportunity if she gets that done...Or maybe mid bollie?
SINA, NTES are headed down and also might offer an oversold opportunity at some point?
I own all the stocks I mod the boards of. Some I keep, some I trade - so I don't really have much to offer.
Sorry I am not much help!
J
Defence stocks will be target for shorts now, I guess...I will prepare some board with defence stocks. If they fall down too much, then it might be interesting...
http://www.cbsnews.com/blogs/2009/05/22/politics/politicalhotsheet/entry5033326.shtml
Thanks. It is tailorized for me to make me money.... :)
You are welcome to share...
And if you have some other gems like GSI, I am ready to listen. If you miss some charts in watchlists, the same....
I cannot hold the stock for longer than few weeks. And as I expect the market will get balanced this year, watchlists are here to track charts to find out oversold stocks ready to pop back up by 5-10%
Nice board kmx. :)
Board marked.
they also have no debt, and are a well known name that i think people will warm to if the news is something good -
what you don't see in the conference call is that GIGM owns stock in a few of the developer studios around the region so they are well diversified and getting more vertically integrated -
this is a short to mid term swing play based on the cash from their 60% stake sale in everest poker, as well as 2-3 catalysts which they alluded to in the conference call -
there are some interesting articles out there about this stock, if they do this right, it could be like the resurgence of nintendo ...
thanks, so they are in loss last two quarters...take it then only as a chart play and quit with profit in time...I have no idea how good they are, how popular their games are, honestly I do not know where this business is heading to and if they are following that track...I am 40 so I will not test their games, I am not right person to judge if I like it or not.... :)
I like manager games, like Football manager, FIFA manager, Pro-cycling manager :)
I can play it my way in my tempo.... :)
I have not find any interesting stock except LONG, which is interesting to watch only because its chart. It is head and shoulders. Technicaly looks oversold but fundamentaly is PPS not very attractive. So if head and shoulders pattern will bring it even more down, it would be worth to reconsider. They are profitable at least, so future is ok.....
they only file-semi annually, but are very bold and, i feel, forthcoming in their conference calls, which they had in the second half of december 09 -

watchlist charts for STEEL companies added to the board
*watchlist charts - steel*
nice pick soy...I like the chart a lot..I have added GIGM to *watchlist charts - computer games* I would buy some but not sure if I want to sell some of my current picks. Maybe CDE? There is some another dilution....as i have found today
If I should find some dirt on GIGM, it would be :
- latest SEC filling on June 2009
- most current quarter filled I have found is December 2008
- i do not like too much goodwill and intangible assets, GIGM balance sheets has 87M and 26M for these two items in assets.
on the other hand I like
- current chart looks oversold and ready for ride
- income from operations per share 0.63 (I prefere for safety to calculate diluted number of shares, not current O/S only, so I did calculate 60M from their fillings instaed of 54 you can find on Yahoo). That tells me this stock can go up maybe even 100%.
But this is an info from Dec 2008. That isd bad. Could point is that now it is in reality maybe even better.
If you have any link to some more current quarter, please submit.
i bought some GIGM today - all cash, no debt - check it out -
C, CDE, LYG, GSI
all my holdings started green today. Slightky, but they did... :)) Thumbs up!
