Trade Alert: New basket of security stocks

You’ve all seen the headlines and many of you have been victimized by the exploding world of hacking. Target, Best Buy, American Express, ApplePay — they’ve all been in the headlines lately for being on the wrong side of hackers who steal their customers credit cards, identities and other

Trade Alert: INTC, BKS and AAPL updates

Ugly open, to say the least. I’ve been waiting for a sharp sell-off to put some money back to work, now looking at my Watch List and Longs for some slow motion scaling in and maybe a cover of a short or two. And to start with, I’m

Trade Alert: Nibbling on fast food puts and other notes

TRADE ALERT I’m going to start slowly but surely scaling into a few McDonald’s $MCD puts. I’m using puts instead of common stock because the premiums on the puts are negligible and by using put options, I am limiting any losses to the small amount of capital

How the Apple Watch changes everything (PLUS Trade Alert: BKS)

Barnes and Nobel BKS up 7% today on news that they’re going to spin off their college books business. Remember when the stock popped and later crashed when BKS announced they would spin off their Nook business? I think this is a similar set-up here. That said, I’m

Trade Alert: Taking big profits on SYNA, TWTR (and random thoughts)

Have a great weekend, everybody! * Well, I blew it on the Intuit. Main reason that $INTU is up today despite the ugly earnings report and lowered guidance — I think we weren’t the only ones betting against the company thinking that the earnings and guidance would be even worse apparently.

Trade Alert: INTU (and full report on Gold vs Oil for the next five years)

For the more aggressive traders of you out there, take a look at buying some $INTU Intuit puts into the earnings report tonight. I think the TurboTax competition has heated up and as one of our TradingWithCody members noted a couple weeks ago: $INTU TurboTax site is down right now…

Trade Alert: Apple trim and analysis for each of the portfolio positions

Five years ago when the Greece-contagion EU/Euro Financial Crisis first started rearing its ugly head, I used to write that I’d prefer to see the EU/Euro collapse as it has failed to create any prosperity but has been used as a means to prop up central banks

Trade Alert: Some SYNA profits and 3-D printing a big egg

A couple trades I’m making: I’m going to trim about 1/5th of my Synaptics call options that we’d bought before the earnings report. I’m up more than double on them and I’ve also got a pretty good-sized position in SYNA common stock which is
