PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Nov 18/13. Up 3.58%.) Usually there is a seasonal downturn in the month of December for technology, but this didn’t happen this year. Has outperformed the market and it tends to top around the Consumer Electronics Show. We are now nearing the latter stages of the seasonal trend, but it can still run through into February.

TOP PICK

His Top Picks are not “Buy & Holds”. They are Seasonal Picks so there is an exit strategy. This is his only Top Pick that ends in January. From Oct 9th all the way to Jan 17th, it gains about 11.5% on average. Technically, it is showing higher highs and higher lows. Outperforming the market.

TOP PICK

Period of seasonal strength for technology is October 9 to January 17, the time when people are buying things for Christmas. Technically, it is already in an upward trend, just went above its 20 day moving average and is outperforming the S&P 500, giving you a technical score of 3.

WAIT

ETFs are a good way to play a sector theme. As a retail investor, the problem you have with looking at a stock is inevitably, you are going to get tested. It is really easy to get shaken out of that position. Feels technology is very undervalued. September would be a better time to get into this.

TOP PICK

Tech sector has risen half that of the S&P yet companies keep beating expectations. Likes this very much. AAPL is almost 15% plus 78 other companies. Thinks tech is poised for a bit of a rebound.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Oct 7/11. Up 17.98%.) Seasonality is from the beginning of October right through until the end of January. Although he got out at the end of January, the stock kept on going through until the end of March/12.
PAST TOP PICK
(Top Pick Oct 7/11, Up 5.19%) Strength from mid October to second week in September, but he already took profits, thinks he may have got out a little early.
TOP PICK
Technology ETF. Preferred time for technology is from Oct 9th until Jan 12th. This works because people are buying consumer electronic goods at this time of year.

TOP PICK
Strong seasonal period for Technology. Oct 9 to Jan 17. Techs are very cheap this time. A great trade at this time. He has his finger on the trigger to get into the market. Wait for a signal on this.
