Insider Buys And Sells: Weekly Wrap-up

Mon, 02 Nov 2009 19:39:37 GMT

For all the analysts and pundits in the financial media, there is still no better judge of a company's health and future prospects than the owners and executives of those companies themselves, along with major institutional shareholders.[More...]

So Now What Wednesday

Sentiment Watch: Technically charts on the cusp of breaking down or enjoying a re-rally. My thought is its probably time for a modest rally in the equity markets and that the commodities will tag along. Fundamentally, things look very shaky beginning with the financials and moving into every facet of the markets. Trading sentiment remains on "buy (...)[More...]

The Trend Is Still Down On Most Time Frames And People Are Still Trying To Buy “Bargains”; When Will It End–At The Bottom When They Are Broke

Thu, 04 Sep 2008 13:32:00 GMT

Today was a basically nothing day as it was just another session that showed an overall weak market in play minus the DJIA which inched up 15 points. This is nothing I would get excited over with the rest of the market falling. So take the gains in the DJIA as it is which I believe was a great session by one stock named General Motors (GM).The upside leadership remains a joke and even though the SP 500, NYSE are in clear downtrends with the 50 DMA being trailed by the 200 DMA and the Nasdaq is rolling over I am still getting a few NEWBIE investors that are not familiar with the CANSLIM strategy continue to ask me which stock I am buying. I think I have made it clear to platinum investors and I think I will make it clear here.Unless the stocks sets up just like XSI has in June and August, there is no reason to go long any stock here. I continue to SHOW YOU and REMIND YOU that the best stocks that move up 500% to 3000% during a run that[More...]

Today we saw selling that was broad-based, but not particularly heavy in terms of volume. The sector overview looks more bearish here, with several indexes and sectors sitting on trendlines or other forms of support.An example is SPY. A break tomorrow below today's low will have me shorting more aggressively.[More...]

Bookkeeping: Creating a CRO Basket

Wed, 13 Aug 2008 16:07:00 GMT

I've been talking about these healthcare contract research organizations (CROs) for a long time, but aside from WuXi PharmaTech (WX) have not taken the plunge - to my chagrin. With the lack of market leadership ex-healthcare, this is one sector where I ca[More...]

Sentiment Watch: Still negative sentiment for E&P and oil service. The refiners are trying to make a turn. All three groups closely tied to the minute to minute price of oil and not fundamentals and stories. As such, I’ll be looking at slow, opportunistic additions to equity and not option positions except in the refiners (...)[More...]

Oil Prices -- Off Peak Highs for Good?

Sat, 09 Aug 2008 18:02:00 GMT

With oil prices sliding down after an extended strong climb upward, we thought it might be time to check in with Director of Zacks Equity Research Dirk van Dijk, CFA to see if it's time to switch up an investment strategy based on this outcome.[More...]

Thoughts on Oil Price Decline

Thu, 07 Aug 2008 20:57:00 GMT

What are we to make of the rapid decline in oil prices from over $147 to under $120? I have been a long-time bull on oil and commodity prices, and a bear on the financials. Is this trade, which has been so profitable over the last few years finally over? Is it time to reverse course? I think not. The key reason for the decline in oil (and other commodity) prices recently is due to spreading economic weakness around the globe. Japan has indicated that it is falling back into recession, Western Europe is weak, and there are even indications that China's growth is slowing (although to a rate that any other country would envy, like to 9.0% or so). There has been relatively little happening on the supply front. The oil market is one that has very inelastic curves for both supply and demand. This means that small shifts in either can lead to large price[More...]

Still Spending at Biotech Hub: Murdock Says Dole Food's IPO Has Nothing to Do With His Research Campus in Kannapolis.

Thu, 20 Aug 2009 09:45:00 GMT

Aug. 20--KANNAPOLIS Billionaire Dole Food Co. owner David Murdock said his plans to take the produce giant public have nothing to do with the North Carolina Research Campus he founded in Kannapolis, despite a slowdown in the biotech project.
In an interview Wednesday, Murdock also said that he and his development company, Castle and Cooke, already have spent about $500 million at the campus, and they continue to fund it.
Murdock took Dole private in a 2003 offer that valued the company at about $2.5 billion.
