So... it had to come... and we've been prepared for a long time. As a part of any good diversified strategy, we use inverse positions such as HXD.TO, SH, PSQ, etc. So, when the stop losses trigger for some of the upward mobile positions such as JAZZ and CAT... which we moved out of at a profit, then we begin to make money with inverse positions. 

Nevertheless, we still hold a few positions such as AAPL, MNST, etc.

Tonight, we'll be having a free webinar on "How to Diversify without Diluting your Stock Portfolio." I hope you'll be able to join us... there will be lots of time for discussion.

Lots of ideas and resources are available as always at Invest in the Markets. Be sure to check out the stock tracker!

I know... it's been a while. It's been so busy at invest in the markets. We continue to see fabulous results in the Weekend Investor Newsletter as well as the Evening Investor Stock Tracker... with several double digit returns with names like AAPL, MNST, AGU.TO and others.

Europe seems to have settled... and the US news from companies continues to impress. I continue to enjoy JAZZ and CAT... both with no risk at this time due to the gains from the purchase point. 

In a couple weeks, we'll be having a free webinar on "How to Diversify without Diluting your Stock Portfolio." I hope you'll be able to join us... there will be lots of time for discussion.

US Stock of the Day for October 20, 2011

Europe continues to wag the world's financial markets

Let's take a look at where we stand still...

October 11th, I chose AAPL @ $392.00.  It triggered the stop loss @ $395.00.  I'll look to reenter this in the near future once the pessimism rubs off.

October 19th, I'm choosing GMCR @ $83.34 after being severely beaten up. It got more beaten up and I sold it immediately at a 8% loss... devastating in some ways!

OVERALL 

The Overall total return is 63.4% since my first purchase in June.

So far... 16 winners... 5 even... and 19 losers (at approx. -1% each, and one at 0.3%) for a great overall profit.

I'd encourage you to visit Invest in the Markets for great educational articles, stock analysis, and trading strategies. It's a great site no matter how new or experienced you are as a trader.

See you tomorrow!

US Stock of the Day for October 19, 2011

Whooosshhhh... another week of Roller-coaster markets.

Let's take a look at where we stand still...

October 11th, I chose AAPL @ $392.00.  It closed @ $422.24 for a gain of 7.7%.  I'm lowering my stop loss to $395.00 to avoid being stopped out when I think we'll see it rise significantly from here.

October 17th, I chose SH @ 43.19.  I set my stop loss @ $42.43 and it triggered for a 1.7% loss.

October 18th, I chose GG @ $48.69.  It did not trigger.

October 19th, I'm choosing GMCR @ $83.34 after being severely beaten up.
