US Stock of the Day for February 23, 2011

Tuesday dragged everything down... but we still ended up ahead.  Here's how:

SWKS sold out at a .5% loss - not a big deal when most stocks plummeted.

OXY triggered out on both orders, leaving us with a 2.7% gain and NO RISK to ongoing pressures!

VIT never triggered the purchase price of $32.85, so nothing loss there either.

So all in all, it's a profit in the pocket scenario... with no risk to the ongoing market turmoil.

For February 23, 2011, I'm choosing RSW @ $35.25 with a stop loss at $34.90.

US Stock of the Day for February 22, 2011

Markets were closed Monday.

Here's where we stand...

SWKS triggered on February 16th at $36.70 and pulled back by the end of the week a little, closing at $36.65 (basically even).  I'm keeping my stop loss order at $36.30.

On February 15th, OXY triggered a buy at $102.27 and it closed Friday (4 days later) at $107.37 for a 5% gain.  At this point, it doesn't look like it's done running... so I'm holding on with two stop losses for each half.  The first is @ $106.50 and the second is @ 102.95.

For February 22, 2011 I'm choosing VIT at $32.85 with a stop loss order at $32.40.  

Join me tomorrow for the next pick.
