PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick May 1/18, Up 4%) He bought it for the low volatility for the summer. This is a defensive position.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick May 1/18, Up 5%) It is a contrarian play this summer. It was so over sold that he felt it could get back to $55. You might get a total of 10% this summer and are up 5 so far.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick May 1/18, Up 2%) It is a bit of a longer play. This is an index but is doing what he likes. It is a slow grower. He may hold this for a while but when the trend breaks he will get out.

WATCH

It is attempting to break its downtrend and to base. You want to see it break $15. If it does that and stays for a couple of days you could step in.

DON'T BUY

He got out of AEG because it started to break down. This one is not looking hugely positive right now so he would avoid it.

HOLD

It was in an uptrend and then there was consolidation. There was support at $82 and then that broke down. On the positive sign it is consolidating. You would like to see a break out above $89 so it could return to its old trading range. It is in no man's land right now.

HOLD

He has it in a portfolio that only wants income as well as in a growth platform. The recent area of support seems to be being held so he added to his position recently. If it breaks below $75 he would want to end the trade. Otherwise he feels it will return to the $80 area.

HOLD

It looks like it is breaking down. There was a former uptrend from 2016 to 2018 and then it broke down. It is now in a downtrend. The next support area is just below where it is now. If it bounces it might come back to the higher trading range.

BUY

It is a seasonal stock. It is a great trading stock. It is going to come into a lid in the mid to high $40s. It has a good potential to get into the $45-$47 area and he would get out of the trade after that.

SELL

Oil producers have been a mixed bag. This one is in the 'dog' category. It consolidated, then downtrend, then consolidation, then downtrend. It is forever breaking down. He would say he does not like the chart. There are other oil stocks if you want to be in the sector.

HOLD

The sector in the US and Canada, has been soft. They usually pay dividends. Late 2017 most of these stocks broke down a bit on interest rates fears. It is not a bad thing if it consolidates. Give it the benefit of the doubt if you own it as long as it stays above the old low. If it breaks out you might want to buy more.

DON'T BUY

You need more data for technical analysis. It looks like the short term trend broke and it may or may not mean anything longer term. Short term, the cards are stacked against it.

HOLD

The sector was red hot since the US election but is taking a pause right now. It is consolidating, which is a positive thing. So long as the chart holds the support level and if it breaks the lid then it would mean it just consolidated.

SELL

The sector is breaking down. There was some bad data that came out of China in their gambling numbers. There is one stock in the sector that is not too bad.

BUY

It had been a go-nowhere stock for a long time until the beginning of this year and then it popped. It is a great story and has tones of upside. It is overbought short term but it has lots of legs and lots of upside ahead of it.
