About me
Fundamental analysis first and foremost including market info and direction, the sector, the industry and then individual companies. Weekly stock screens followed by my charting: end-of-day and intraday, I also try to spread my investments over at least 5 sectors.

I got to spend some online time with John Bollinger of the "Bollinger Bands." His expertise is amazing. Fantastic info ... made a big difference in my charting skills, techniques, and thinking.

EEP reports after the bell today and my analysis suggests EEP will surprise to the upside. Plus, if I am wrong (smiling), you still get a nice paid while you wait as EEP sports a 6.4 percent dividend yield.

SELL: SPDR HOMEBUILDERS ETF (XHB) Rating: 1
Start Price: $18.68
Points: -4.74
Created: 01/21/2012
Home builders like Hovnanian ( HOV ), KB Home ( KBH ), and Beazer Homes ( BZH ) have rizen into overbought, as well as substantially overbought territory, though this condition could/can continue, it is highly likely a substantial pullback is up ahead, There is still a backlog of foreclosed, to soon to be foreclosed hames, that will need to work their way through the housing market before housing prices will begin to stabilize and property prices rise again. Every piece of land is unique ... … More

BUY: FREEPORT MCMORAN B (FCX) Rating: 3
Start Price: $43.07
Points: +0.32
Created: 01/17/2012
When I run my analyses, I run BOTH the Bull side AND the Bear side statistics. When I post observations I try to include BOTH, but, sometimes there isn't anything statistically significant to the flipside statistics. While anyone predicting GOLD at $5000 per troy oz is making an unrealistic assessment ... but even that should get the qualifier: "AT THIS TIME."

Think about it. The price of gold is an equation factoring in the gold locked in the Ft. Knox's of the world, the ETF's and… More

Start Price: $43.70
Points: -8.24
Created: 01/06/2012
( 1) In December 2011, Schnitzer said it expects its first-quarter operating income at its auto parts business to be 30% lower than the 2011 fiscal first quarter. ( 2) SCHN added that sales prices began to strengthen at the end of the quarter, but that it did not expect to see the benefits until later in the second quarter. ( 3) Just a wild gestimate here, BUT ... as a result of the SCHN pre-announcement, analysts "REDUCED" earnings estimates to the point SCHN should be able to BEAT the r… More

Points: +6.13
Created: 01/01/2012
(1) Banking in the USA is not as poor as the bad press makes it out to be vs banking throughout the globe. (2) Emerging markets will help the bottom line for many banks ... like JMP, BAC, C, ... etc. (3) As the EU gets its financial house in order, there will be less negativity in the news to adversely affect bank stocks ... and the press will have to pick on some other sector and industry.

SELL: PROSHARES TR II (ZSL)
Start Price: $15.87
Points: +20.84
Created: 01/01/2012
Precious metals (gold and silver) have been in a down trend which should bottom out and reverse. The oportunity, and pressure for tax loss selling is gone with December. The rise and fall of commodities with the USA dollar remains. As EU banks get their house in order, the EU dollar will strengthen against the USA dollar making commodities cheaper for foreign ownership.
