Hope everyone is enjoying their long weekend. I know I'm happy to have an extra day off from the market. On the other hand, clearly I felt something was important enough to take a short break from my break, and take care of a little business. What's the news? Just a notice to look for Monday's newsletter...

If you took advantage of our Tenet Healthcare (NYSE: THC) pick from November 10th, then you're probably loving us today. THC shares jumped more than 14% on better-than-expected earnings, and a 2008 forecast that was far batter than Wall Street's expectations. As of now it's about 19% above our pick price...

You may have seen my comments about Spicy Pickle (OTCBB: SPKL) in the blog on Thursday. However, I think what I said then is important enough to reiterate - and add to - here in the newsletter. What was my message? Simple - if you're looking for a great entry level into a long-term SPKL position, I think...

I already blogged it this morning, but I didn’t have room for a chart in my morning notes. So, here I am again telling you about Tenet Healthcare (THC). Why do I need a chart? Because the chart is the story. The stock has made a strong break today, moving past some prior resistance levels. Those [...]

No surprises here really…small cap company Spicy Pickle (SPKL) has delivered as expected, opening the first  restaurant in downtown San Diego, California. It’s the second in the area. That means 37 are now open, and leaves more than 90 on the way. All the details are below. In the meantime, how about that market? Stocks mustered a little [...]

Looks like I’m on something of a roll here….I called for a pullback yesterday morning, and got it yesterday afternoon. The NASDAQ was off 2.2%, the S&P fell 0.3%, and the Dow sank 0.6%. I still think there’s a little more selling needed to shake-off the recent exuberance, and getting to the end of the [...]

We didn’t even get a chance to celebrate yesterday’s victory with our Tenet Healthcare (NYSE: THC) pick before we got another one today. THC shares are up another 7% following yesterday’s 14.5% rally. That’s a 22.5% romp in less than 48 hours. What causes this kind of bullish volatility just a day after a giant surge? [...]
Mon, Feb 25, 2008 @ 11:54 am
One way or another, our Tenet Healthcare (THC) stock pick is going to get moving soon. The triangle shape on the chart is just about closed, and THC shares are getting squeezed into a pretty cramped space. That’s not bullish or bearish yet, but could be (either one) real soon. Stay tuned to the support and [...]

A few days ago I discussed a concern I had with small cap stock Bio-Matrix Scientific Group’s (BMSN) breakout above 63 cents. That concern? That the stock wouldn’t be able to hold onto those gains. Well, I feel a little better now (and more so every day). We’re now into our fourth day of trading [...]

I don’t know if it was being featured on ‘The Price is Right’ that prompted yesterday’s big surge from our bulletin board stock pick SpongeTech Delivery Systems (SPNG), but it may have helped. Or, maybe it was CEO Michael Metter’s letter to shareholders. Frankly, it doesn’t entirely matter what the reason is, because I think SpongeTech’s [...]

As promised, today we're going to take a look at Bio-Matrix's numbers, which will ultimately determine our valuations (and price target) for the stock. We did the same back in March when we first started looking at the company, though our projections were based on average industry-wide pricing. This...

Applied DNA (OTCBB: APDN) has completed their anti-counterfeit technology circle. No, that's not code for anything - they really have rounded out their product line to cover all the bases.
