I’ve added a color code to the list to convey even more information about the size of each position, which are already listed […]

Latest positions (new format gives even greater detail than ever)
This type of action is not normal, though it feels like it right now. 5% intraday dislocations in ETFs, 5% intraday dislocations in precious metals, 2-3% intraday moves in stock markets around the world. a huge spike in rates and sell-off in Treasurys a US Federal Reserve bank’s inability to deliver gold as promised to its […]
Latest Positions – And who’s more scared right now?
It’s time for another edition of “Who’s more scared right now, the bulls or the bears?” To review, as I laid out yesterday, there are a lot of markets that sure seem prime to go crazy here. We all know there are huge imbalances and artificially propped up asset prices around the globe and here […]
Latest Positions – A game plan for a corrupted system
Is the entire stock market and the system it supports (or that supports it?) completely corrupted at this point? Think about it before you answer. Then click here and take our WallStreetAllStars.com poll. Knowing that most trades and prices in the stock market are set by computer algorithms and high-frequency trading software programs on a […]
Trade Alert – Locking in some gains (And Cody’s Latest Positions)
Good morning and welcome back to the airport, where the jets take off and land, but you always need a little bit of help on the ground. A couple trades this morning to mention. First Solar is up nearly 50% since we added it to the portfolio just a few weeks ago, and I’m going […]
Trade Alert – Playbook on Facebook and Latest Positions
I think FB is ready to run to $40. I bought a little more common stock today before they report earnings and unless the report is a total disaster, I’ll buy more on any weakness after the report. Here’s a list of my latest positions in approximate order from largest to smallest. I give each […]
Latest Positions (and Predicting how long the bubble will last)
It’s been a steady drip lower in the market action all day and the path of least resistance seems to be pulling us lower. I remain heavier in cash and with more puts/short hedges than I was a few months ago. Ebb and flow with the market. The question for everybody now is — how […]
Latest positions, Monty Python and the big banks
Here’s a list of my latest positions in approximate order from largest to smallest. I give each stock a current rating from 1 to 10, 1 being “Get out of this position now!” and 10 being “Sell the farm, I’ve found a perfect investment” (there will never be a 10 rating, because there is no […]
Latest positions – Antsy ain’t a strategy
Marvell is up after last night’s report. Steady as she goes, I’m holding all of my common and calls steady in that one for now. On the other hand, I’ve been actively refining the portfolio and getting ever less long as the markets run higher. I’d sure like to see a huge spike or a […]
Trade Alert and Latest Positions – Selling calls down, getting less aggressive
Great time on the honeymoon, but long story short — 20 hours of plane delays to leave El Paso, lost luggage, flu-like symptoms almost the whole time we were gone, and lots of sleep, rest, relaxation and purification while in the rain forests of remote Costa Rica. It’s always great to get back on US […]

Latest positions (and Trade Alert – Noogle Gibble, er Google Nibble)
The good news is that there’s been a definite spike in fear about both Apple and even the broader markets despite how tough they’ve been hanging the last couple days. That doesn’t mean we’ll spike Monday, but again, I do think the path of least resistance is up for the near-term. I’m not buying back […]

Latest positions and Soft-thoughts
Trader’s thoughts of the day – should we have more MSFT puts than we do? Is there any chance the expectations are so low already that the Windows 8 failure is priced in? Is there a chance Windows 8 catches fire in the next few months? Is MSFT too cheap and too profitable for the […]

Latest positions and a request for referrals
Lots of great feedback from you guys continues to pour in, such as this: Just exited the last of the GOOG calls you suggested a while back. The Sept 650’s for an 842% return. How sweet is that? Scaled back as it went up and took home some profits, but the last batch was sold […]
