Opportunity Buffet Part1

July 25, 2007

This is not an ideal environment to aggressively chase stocks for swing trades also on long side. In few days we will know if the move has more downside. So none of the stocks in these scans are screaming buy, but keeping an eye on what moves up during such corrections gives you an idea about where likely future moves are going to come from.

Opportunity Buffet Part 2

Labels: Opportunity Buffet

So far in this 4 years plus rally there have been few corrections which have really proven to be meaningful and had follow through. At this stage we do not know if this will have follow through, but going by the action so far, it looks like this correction has more downside ahead of it. Obviously there will be attempts at bounce. But once the worm turns, every bounce offers a low risk opportunity to put on short position on former leaders.

Because of the sheer number of stocks in each scan, I am not going scan by scan, but just putting together a short watch list for probable good shorts.

GOOG : This former market leader gapped down post earning. It has a good catalyst of earning miss ,slowing earnings growth, rising cost, and out of control hiring. Since its 300% plus move in 2006, it has been a laggard and has gone up on low volume coming in to the earnings. It is consolidating here near the gap low and might have a weak rally, but the most probable move is down.
AAPL : This current market leader has sky high expectations. Recent magazine cover. Analyst falling over each other to praise it. Heavily owned by institutions. It is the bell cow of this market. If the market has 10% correction, this stock will also breakdown. With earnings due today, one will have to watch for the reaction. But if this stock breaks down, you know market will have meaningful correction. It might be a buy after 20 to 25% correction.
MICC : This is clear short. After a long rally, had a earning miss.
NTRI: Another former leader which had a weak rally this year. Catalyst earnings reduction. Again will have to wait for a small pullback to put position as this is gapping down today.
HANS : Another former market leader primed for a fall.
CRDN: Gap down after long up move.
CTSH: Another former leader primed for down move.
RTI : Another former market leader
CPA: Former rally leader
AKAM: Former rally leader

In addition to this on your watch list you can put all stocks above 40 in Double Trouble. If the market correction follows through one by one all these stocks will correct up to 25%. Some of them are in early stages of rollover. That is how the 472 number will come down to 200.
