PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Nov 23/09. No change.) Technology ETF. Seasonal trade for technology goes from October to the beginning of January when technology tends to do well until the consumers electronics show.
TOP PICK
Technology ETF. Technology is doing well and he thinks it is a seasonal play now. You want to Sell either the first week of January (consumer electronics show in Las Vegas) or January 17th with Stop/Losses.
TOP PICK
Technology ETF. Likes technology but rather than buying an individual stock, buy the index. Thinks Cdn$ climb is done so you shouldn't get hurt too much by currency exchange. Had a giant spike in 2000 and then went through a long base, which had to digest the damage done by the spike. Had a low in 2002 and a higher low early this year. Now expecting a 2nd echo technology boom driven by Internet, China, etc.
TOP PICK
Technology for Consumer electronics sales should do very well this Christmas. Continue to hold until mid January when they Consumer Electronics Show once again appears.
TOP PICK
Tech and telecom. Technology has been struggling. Capital spending is going to be pretty decent worldwide. Global growth is pretty good.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Oct 27/07. Down 12%.) Technology sector tends to do well in the fall, from October into the beginning of January. The consumer Las Vegas electronics show tends to be a big driver. People tend to buy technology ahead of that. January was the suggested Sell date. Not a big fan of the technology sector at this point.
TOP PICK
Long-term chart shows a sideways base from the end of 2003 to mid-2006 which is then followed by an uptrend indicating the US tech stocks are going up. There is a double play on this. Just in case there is a reversal on the Cdn$ you pick up what you just lost.
TOP PICK
(SPDR Tech E.T.F) Technology does extremely well at this time of year (October 9-January 23). Sell before consumer electronic show in Las Vegas.
TOP PICK
Technology is where to be. It's a relative strength thing. It hit a high in July, sold off and then went on to new highs. It is outperforming the US market.
TOP PICK
Bottomed in 2002-2003. Then had an uptrend, in 2004 went sideways, then 2006 went up again.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Aug 9/06. Up 19.7%.) This was his way of getting exposure to the technology sector.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Aug 9/06. Up 19.3%.) Had picked as a call on the technology sector.
TOP PICK
Sometimes buying a single stock in technology is fraught with idiosyncratic risks. This alleviates that risk. The technology sector has become very cheap.
