DIS long

Played DIS long today buying and adding quickly above 85.6. This is generally a slow moving stock so you have to size up to gain anything on this. I exited my position close to the whole number and booked my Monday profits... Awesome trade that took 30 mins

DD stable

My comments on Dupont
http://seekingalpha.com/news/1819973-dupont-cuts-outlook-down-2_5-percent-ah

This stock is steady growth from 52 to 67 but has taken a long time to reach here. One of the stable stocks but if you are looking to swing play as I often do, then look else where as this moves slow and will hold your $ for a longer time.

COH is cheap

My comments :

http://seekingalpha.com/article/2288733-coach-a-victim-of-its-own-success-bold-transformation-strategy-presents-hope-previous-luxury-retail-transformations-have-been-successful

Luxury brand at it's all time low. I like to see some stability at this price and then like to buy it above 35. But this needs to consolidate here before one can initiate a position.

I like this brand and I believe this will come back up.

NKE all time high

My comments on this:
http://seekingalpha.com/news/1820183-nike-issues-strong-fq1-guidance

his will open at an all time high of 80 tomorrow because of it's earnings play. Need to be careful to play at this level. Nice break out at this level if it goes above 80 but I doubt it will remain there.

NFLX review

Netflix also at it's peak of 440, cannot buy here. The ideal place to buy was few weeks back when it had fallen to 300 level. It is time to book profits here.

SCS Short

I traded #SCS ($SCS) today and shorted it after the 1st 5 min. Started with a small position as I generally do and then add on to my position in my favor. I kept adding to the position and finally exited below 14.5
Awesome trade, made over 4.5R in profits and done in 20 minutes.

ACTC - stem cell company

My review on this article: http://seekingalpha.com/article/2283633-brainstorm-cell-therapeutics-inc-a-small-biotech-with-big-plans-and-huge-potential

Pharma stocks are always risky as it moves with the breakthrough news. I like ACTC and am a buyer of it. I already own this stock and am long

The stem cell research has a big upside, it is only a matter of time.

WMT - expansion plans

Comments on this article:

http://seekingalpha.com/article/2286163-indias-foreign-direct-investment-laws-shouldnt-stop-wal-marts-retail-growth-plans

Well written article. Walmart is very well priced right now. I am a buyer of it at this price and slowing adding it to the portfolio and increasing it's size as it goes up.
The overseas expansion and the revenue from it can play a major game for WMT.

Like it here.

GILD review

http://seekingalpha.com/article/2285873-gild-may-be-a-good-short-this-week?

If you are planning to enter GILD then it may be a bit late.. People are already enjoying the ride from $65. The stock may still go up but I cannot buy when the stock market is at its all time high and most of the stock is at all time high. If one plays it, one should put a tight stop below 80 and play it as a swing trade.

VLO overreaction sent the stock down

http://seekingalpha.com/article/2286133-valero-buy-the-dip?

My comments to this article:
I agree with the article, there is a big overreaction to the news. I like VLO at this price. I actually day traded this stock and made over 4.5 times my risk $$.
There is easily 20% upside to this stock.

TGT - my review on the article

http://seekingalpha.com/article/2286093-is-targets-yield-at-3_6-percent-worth-the-risk?


I actually like target. It has been hit by various credit card breaches in last few months due to which it has scared the customers away. Their product line has still not changed and once they gain the confidence back, this stock will go up the ladder soon.

I like the proactive approach taken by target to fix the breaches. They may get more aggressive and lower the prices to drive the customers back to the store.
I am a buyer above 60.. can see the highs that this stock once enjoyed... has over 15% upside... let the holiday season start..

BAC trade review

BAC trade is done. One should have sold it at 18 when it reached in March this year. I am not a buyer of it at this level. I want it to stabilize above 16 before it generates interest for me.

Coca Cola review

KO is already at its peak value. It may still do good but not a big fan at this price. Good article. I still like PEP better than KO as a stock in this segment. But both KO and PEP is at it's high, so may not buy it.

Apple iWatch

This is how people felt when the white ear phones arrived with ipod. It then changed the trend to make the white ipod to be the coolest. Will have to wait and watch how this transforms the industry, if it does, it may be the next fashion statement.


http://seekingalpha.com/article/2280673-an-iwatch-cannot-move-the-needle-much?uprof=44&dr=1


IF stability is what you are looking for, then this may be one in your portfolio. But if you are looking for a swing trade then this does not make much sense. The stock has been here between 35-36 since March this year. 
I am neutral at this price.
As regards to the stocks, it needs apple TV or something bigger in the cable space to move it big bounds..

VLO - do you like the energy sector?

VLO should be owned in the 401Ks rather than play it as a swing trade, that is what I think. If you look at the stock, it moves very slowly and you may get better returns investing in tech sectors where things move fast. This is a steady mover and I think steady ones should be part of 401K

FB - are you buying at this level?

Nice article - http://seekingalpha.com/article/2280613-3-reasons-to-sell-facebook-now-and-look-to-invest-at-lower-levels?uprof=44&dr=1
but not necessarily agree with the headline of shorting FB. I am not a buyer at this level for sure but also not ready to take a short position at this level. I am neutral and want to see how it shapes up. Technically above 66 is a good buy with 70 being the target. If you add stops of 64, the risk reward is not great to take this trade.
My action is do nothing.

Netflix is already at it's prior top

Netflix is already at its prior peak. Having said that it may still go higher, but difficult to buy this stock at this level. There are competitions coming from AMZN, AAPL and other players in the streaming section...
something to consider before hitting the buy buttom!!!

Tesla - will it deliver

 I believe Tesla is ready as the consumer car. If you have to check, look at all the recalls by all other manufactures that has happened at recent times. Starting with GM and Toyota. This one has issues but far less that what you will anticipate. With no other car at this price range with such a big mileage with so much of a look and feel, this is a class above all other cars.

This will overtake the car segment when the new model comes at 36K price range and will give good competition to major car players.

I love this stock.

ACN - my view here

At this level I am not a buyer or a seller of this stock. If you held it from 75-80 level, then it may be time to be cautious and take profits at the high of 85. Else I do not want to touch this stock here.

Clorox - What is next?

I totally agree with the valuation on Clorox. I do not like Clorox at this level. Consumer staples are slow moving stocks and do not move as fast as the tech companies. Hence it is better to buy such stocks at a bargain price rather than buying it here at 93.

I am not a buyer at this level.. will want to see more pullback

FB - buy or sell here?

Facebook fell well to 55 level recently and if you have already missed the boat, above 65 area is another opportunity. But need to tread cautiously since it is already up 20% since it's fall to 55 area...

Buy but with caution is my view

COH not a buyer now

It has fallen from 50 and is now trading at 35 level. I want to see more consolidation before deciding what to do with it. Right now I am not a buyer of this stock

AMZN new phone

There are a lot of opportunity in the phone area. With the lack of new products coming from AAPL in the last 2 years (apart from changes in shape and size of existing products), this area has a lot of opportunities for new players.

More than the phone, it is the ecosystem that matters. AMZN already has the ecosystem to handle it and I think one should see this as a positive event...

GOOG another good possibility

Google is another stock with a lot of possibilities as it has ventured into everything now. THe area of 540 has held well and above 560 is a good swing opportunity.
Looks good here - http://agaptrader.com/

C swing trade

C above 48 and adding to one's position above 50 looks good. It has 10% upside and has a good potential to go to 55 or so..
