N/A

Markets. Valuations have run ahead a little bit. The Trump rally surprised a lot of people as did Brexit. The French election will probably get the world’s attention. Breakdowns are not always what they seem. There are some things that are not adding up. What is the fuel for the year? The VIX is also going up. Part of this last little push last week is that a hedge fund had to cover an error in their prediction. The breakout confounded everybody. Now we have a pause. For a month or two there is a risk of a correction.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

In the next month energy could be presenting a good buying opportunity. It has broken a downtrend and is base building. It is ready to rip out of that zone. The support should hold. Take a half position on weakness.

COMMENT

It is in the sights of an active investor. There is this downtrend and will probably run into resistance around $17. People are interested when you get two bottoms so close.

DON'T BUY

It is a really tough business. It has a nice little rounded base on the 20 year chart. Deterioration happened in September in the industry. He does not see tones of catalysts. You have to buy when valuations are in your favour.

BUY

The downtrend is broken. This is an energy name he would suggest. The seasonal run may not happen on queue. He tends to be more on pure service plays, but would buy this one.

BUY

It has been a tough one. His bias is to stay away from this one. He has been looking at taking a shot at this one, though. The recent range is quite positive as it absorbed the news in the last two days. It is interesting form a technical perspective. $2.30 makes it interesting and a he has a target over $4. If it breaks below $2.30 then it could below $2.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Has been hitting record highs recently. We have a nice trend, but that last leg is something you don’t want to pay up to. They are open to a pretty decent haircut. He has a target of $100. It is framed by the market. It is a higher beta. Try to get it in the $60s or low $70s.

PARTIAL BUY

We had a shot up post-Trump and then we see that rocket up (a triple). When you have these kinds of news, it can go parabolic. Only take a partial position.

PAST TOP PICK

(Top Pick Feb 5/16, Up 16.09%) They are in the sights of a hostile investor. It got beaten down Sept. to Dec. last year. The stock has now broken out and it is quite positive. He expects it would work quite well in any correction. He moved to XLP-N, which he loves.

PAST TOP PICK

(Top Pick Feb 5/16, Up 30.97%) The whole sector was starting to break down. He does not hold this one anymore. He now has ALA-T and SLB-N.

PAST TOP PICK

(Top Pick Feb 5/16, Up 5.84%) They were higher, but fell a little bit. This one got hit a little bit more than the sector. It is going to focus on its comps and its digital business. It is doing a bit of base building. You get paid nicely to hold it now. If it does not hold $65.80 then he would be concerned. It looks good here at this level.

WATCH

We are seeing a bit of a double top. The relative strength is getting weak. It is a classical exhaustion pattern. It is a nice trend here so if the market resumes then it should participate. Look for it to test the $90 range in a correction.

DON'T BUY

He is about to buy another Toyota vehicle. $95 was a recent bottom and it ran up. It is right on trend here. Around $107 is the top. He expects weakness and also in other automakers.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

We have a downtrend in place. It had to hold the $1.40 level and which it did for almost 2 years and then broke it. This is a lower risk place to come in here. It is starting to base here again. You might get a nice upside breakout move here.

BUY

He uses a linear regression line right through the mean. With dynamic regression it may not come back to you and you might have to just buy it. He would just take your initial position here. There is a bit of a level around $6.60 where there is support. There are also levels in the high $5s. It has an upward-to-the-right look. Take a half or third position and then take more and that will confirm it is doing what you want.
