I longed IFON at $1.58 because it is doing what I wanted to see. I wanted to see a bull flag with a good signal like I mentioned in that other post. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="fullpost"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, I've missed a lot of this move off the flag but I feel good here because there were some big blocks of shares coming in today. Not to mention this is a tech name and a net-net play to boot. Thing is this is a high beta stock so it's probably just going to ride with the market good or bad like it has so far. I've got my exit scoped out and it will be if it breaks below this trend line it is in right now probably. I might also think about stopping out if it cracks below 1.20 because this is more of a key area right now. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;LDIS is holding up well and just got a flurry of big volume days recently. I longed that one in &lt;a href="http://www.tickerspy.com/member.php?pid=73140&amp;mid=50341 " title="http://www.tickerspy.com/member.php?pid=73140&amp;mid=50341 "&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;this portfolio tracker &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; I'm going to be tracking my net-net performance with. I had to enter a symbol to start up the account. I would have preferred to buy LDIS right here at .73ish on whatever fill I could get. From here on out I will always make a post before I place a buy in that tracking portfolio. I think this should be viewable by anyone even without an account there. Let me know if you can't view that page. I put up a great watchlist for daytrading and even some swing trading on my twitter page. It has been really good past couple days. http://twitter.com/StockPursuit&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_TWSYXk_H8sE/Sl66Ej6U0EI/AAAAAAAABTg/U7JrDm7NgcY/s1600-h/ifon.jpeg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 247px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_TWSYXk_H8sE/Sl66Ej6U0EI/AAAAAAAABTg/U7JrDm7NgcY/s400/ifon.jpeg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5358925194139586626" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;full disclosure: long IFON&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5687330538138596839-3927732108048276460?l=www.stockpursuit.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/stockpursuit/VhAe/~4/kB1pT8bWaMU" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description><link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/stockpursuit/VhAe/~3/kB1pT8bWaMU/net-net-in-play-stock-daytrading.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Mark Perkins)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_TWSYXk_H8sE/Sl66Ej6U0EI/AAAAAAAABTg/U7JrDm7NgcY/s72-c/ifon.jpeg" height="72" width="72" /><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">0</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://www.stockpursuit.com/2009/07/net-net-in-play-stock-daytrading.html</feedburner:origLink></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5687330538138596839.post-8784009751117378083</guid><pubDate>Tue, 14 Jul 2009 10:47:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2009-07-14T07:12:45.228-04:00</atom:updated><title>Borders BGP, LivePerson LPSN Quick Look</title><description>I'd imagine forward EPS estimates are hard to get very accurate on.

I left a couple comments on value investing in the comments section. Using fundamentals on the future and sometimes even the past will get you into trouble a lot. Most of the time I feel you are either a total contrarian or dead. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="fullpost"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Simmons below wants to change some things. Yes, Glass Steagall!

Maybe if I remind myself and type this enough I'll figure out what held me back from selling my shirt to leverage up on shorts last year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you Google " 1907 Crash " that paper is 2nd out of over 1 million just to Wikipedia. It ranks for some other keywords to. When the crisis was raging at its height last year I got dozens of hits a day for those keywords as people were freaking out I guess. Funny as the stock market bounced a little the searches went to almost none a month. These past few days I've gotten 2 or so views a day and there was an increase before the sell-off. Could be insignificant and spurious correlation but interesting.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rbGjJiFCg9E&amp;feature=channel_page " title="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rbGjJiFCg9E&amp;feature=channel_page "&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Ideas for fixing the $11 TRILLION of debt the US owes&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Half the volume on the exchanges now is program trading and &lt;a href="http://seekingalpha.com/article/147109-if-goldman-sachs-secret-sauce-is-compromised-what-happens-now " title="http://seekingalpha.com/article/147109-if-goldman-sachs-secret-sauce-is-compromised-what-happens-now "&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Goldman's system might have gotten out&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.

Institutions really loaded up yesterday with some nice blocks. That volume was higher than it has been for 5 months. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Forward EPS is looking like atleast $2.20 so there is a 14 PE multiple. EPS growth will probably be low double digits. I think it could easily make it to 34 a share. Not sure how much follow through there will be if the market takes a major dive here. I'd bet on 34 atleast though. I like this stock here. click below or post title to continue&lt;span class="fullpost"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I like the steady uptrend that always reacts to the trend lines I drew. The circles I made are gap up days. Very consistently after a strong gap up day like we had yesterday and big volume spike the stock has kept getting picked up. Guess what this gap up and volume spike on trend line support yesterday tells me the stock is going to do?

I put my DTO oil double short ETF &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/StockPursuit " title="http://twitter.com/StockPursuit "&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;entry up on Twitter&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; the other day. I put it on at 89.50. I noticed there was a messy double top and that oil was a leading indicator of the stock market on the way up. I'm real bearish here on stocks because nothing seems to have really changed enough. On the chart I also noticed oil made a big breakdown on a gap day that I drew the arrow to around 35 which is a powerful signal. I entered the trade on that breakdown gap. There was actually a gap down the day before to which was key as well. &lt;span class="fullpost"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_TWSYXk_H8sE/SlUvLAfULWI/AAAAAAAABS4/25SVoEks3fU/s1600-h/uso.jpeg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 247px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_TWSYXk_H8sE/SlUvLAfULWI/AAAAAAAABS4/25SVoEks3fU/s400/uso.jpeg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5356239197983485282" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I drew some key support lines. It looks like it is already starting to take out the next support at 33. I'd imagine there will be a little bounce here soon.

Some of it is on how I found some of the recent Net-Net big gainers. You might want to put the coffee on. This one is full. Skip down to LDIS and IFON at the bottom if you are in a hurry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Usually when I find a Net-Net (net current asset) stock that I like it is in a nasty downtrend and pretty much for lack of a better word, dead. These next two that I just noticed are a little different because they've already had a good run and have some good price action going for them. Before I get to them though I want to add a little more clarity on the last couple Net-Net's I posted on. SDBT and ACTS. &lt;span class="fullpost"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.stockpursuit.com/2009/06/net-cash-play-potential-sdbt.html " title="http://www.stockpursuit.com/2009/06/net-cash-play-potential-sdbt.html "&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;SDBT &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; looks like the downtrend is over technically I feel but I'm not as confident on a buy and hold contrarian play if you will without cutting a loss because they don't have the kind of business model that a lot of successful Net's I've seen have. It looks good here technically but if it breaks this trend line and falls below $2 this rally is probably going to stall or fail. I first posted on &lt;a href="http://www.stockpursuit.com/2008/12/cheap-stocks-selling-for-below-net-cash.html"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;SDBT in December of last year&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; actually when the stock was bottoming in the $1.20s.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.stockpursuit.com/2009/07/net-cash-play-actions-semiconductor.html " title="http://www.stockpursuit.com/2009/07/net-cash-play-actions-semiconductor.html "&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;ACTS &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; I wanted to get on the blog because it is less than net cash and these are usually good to follow. Net cash stock &lt;a href="http://www.stockpursuit.com/2008/07/taking-bath-maybe-we-need-some-soap_09.html " title="http://www.stockpursuit.com/2008/07/taking-bath-maybe-we-need-some-soap_09.html "&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Soapstone SOAP that I posted&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/a&gt;almost exactly a year ago &lt;a href="http://finance.yahoo.com/news/Soapstone-Networks-Announces-iw-2295347094.html?x=0 " title="http://finance.yahoo.com/news/Soapstone-Networks-Announces-iw-2295347094.html?x=0 "&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;looks like they are going to liquidate&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/a&gt;for a total of $4.00-$4.50. Much different financial statements but there's often good trades or value to be had in net cash.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The best thing with ACTS I saw about it though was the run it has been having with the overall market and the nice action on the uptrend. I put it up real fast and didn't talk about the price action until Jae left a comment. I like the net cash but I appreciate the technicals more so right now. If it continues the run to $2.20's or does some good volume at $2.10 it looks real good. If this keeps falling to $1.80s it might easily re-test the lows.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, to the second half of the post on what I've been doing and not doing with Net's these past several months. I haven't been scanning for them with fundamental screens as much until just this past week. Well, I actually took a little bit of time for that awhile back when I found HURC, MLR, AEY and JOB and put them into one post.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was pure technical analysis scans that put these recent big gainers right in front of me. Even &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;before&lt;/span&gt; the fundamentals shifted and news came out with PIR. I found PXG at $.12, PIR at $.12 and AERG the day before its 122% run from other technical scans that had zero fundamental data in them. Check out the very bottom of &lt;a href="http://www.stockpursuit.com/2009/04/net-nets-sector-rotation-net-net-pier_02.html" title="http://www.stockpursuit.com/2009/04/net-nets-sector-rotation-net-net-pier_02.html"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;this post on PXG&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; before I even &lt;a href="http://www.stockpursuit.com/2009/04/retailers-surprisingly-strong-today-pxg.html " title="http://www.stockpursuit.com/2009/04/retailers-surprisingly-strong-today-pxg.html"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;realized &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; it was a Net. &lt;a href="http://www.stockpursuit.com/2009/03/stock-analysis-cbou-penny-stocks.html " title="http://www.stockpursuit.com/2009/03/stock-analysis-cbou-penny-stocks.html"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;I saw PIR in an unusual volume scan at $.12&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; which was right at the bottom. PIR hit just over $2 a month and a half later. Over a 1,600% return. I can't remember if the candles helped it stick out on PIR or if it was just the ROC and volume. Candlesticks mostly spike big anyway on a high volume spike. &lt;a href="http://www.stockpursuit.com/2009/04/some-really-cool-momentum-charts.html" title="http://www.stockpursuit.com/2009/04/some-really-cool-momentum-charts.html"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;AERG&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; was a spike day and long candle. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's funny I just felt like sharing more on my technical scans because I just answered an email from someone asking how I screen for Net-Net's. I gave them the two free &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;fundamental&lt;/span&gt; screens I like to use at Grahaminvestor.com and Zacks.com. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Net-Net's LDIS &amp; IFON&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;LDIS had a good week even though the market sold off. LDIS has $27 mil in NCAV and a market cap of $21 mil. They aren't profitable. They sell LED's for the flashes in cell phone cameras and audio circuits for different products. Dialectic Capital Management LLC had 10% of the float as of March. This might seem crazy but this company has little fundamentals going for it (unless next quarter is great which I'm interested in) but is gang-busters since early January. That is a very nice uptrending chart.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_TWSYXk_H8sE/SlB3Krv1RkI/AAAAAAAABSI/kV_Xk9qD6GI/s1600-h/ldis1yr.jpeg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 247px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_TWSYXk_H8sE/SlB3Krv1RkI/AAAAAAAABSI/kV_Xk9qD6GI/s400/ldis1yr.jpeg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5354910982369265218" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Check out these back to back volume spikes. Recently, so far, when they come back to back like that the stock has kept the move going. This stock hasn't been correlated to the Nasdaq except for the beginning of the year. This stock was actually rising in the last market correction this year. As of now I want to be a buyer of this stock on a pull-back off that trend line.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_TWSYXk_H8sE/SlB5In3uuhI/AAAAAAAABSY/gRRT89o109w/s1600-h/ldis.jpeg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 247px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_TWSYXk_H8sE/SlB5In3uuhI/AAAAAAAABSY/gRRT89o109w/s400/ldis.jpeg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5354913145992165906" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I found &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;IFON&lt;/span&gt; in one of my trading screens over last weekend because this thing jumped off the screen technically at me. I put it in a post or on Twitter the other day. I didn't check the balance sheet until a couple days ago. Some of these fundy's were jumping a little to.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;$25 mil NCAV&lt;br /&gt;$24 mil market cap&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They distribute wireless handsets in Central and South America and distributes high-end products under the Verykool brand name. They posted a profit in Q1 of $.02 vs a loss of $.03 year over year. They drew down $21.5 million of the $45 million credit facility. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They have zero long-term debt and have been reducing their short-term debt every quarter since June 2008. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This big a run so fast makes me a little nervous but I'm watching it for a breakout especially over $2 for a buy or a flag to form with some kind of technical signal. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_TWSYXk_H8sE/SlCFVYqBD1I/AAAAAAAABSo/jPdvE5old7Y/s1600-h/ifon.jpeg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 333px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_TWSYXk_H8sE/SlCFVYqBD1I/AAAAAAAABSo/jPdvE5old7Y/s400/ifon.jpeg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5354926559385947986" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_TWSYXk_H8sE/SlCE6youRpI/AAAAAAAABSg/xpajxAheW-c/s1600-h/ifon_EPS.jpeg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 211px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_TWSYXk_H8sE/SlCE6youRpI/AAAAAAAABSg/xpajxAheW-c/s400/ifon_EPS.jpeg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5354926102503376530" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;full disclosure: no positions at time of writing&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5687330538138596839-2695873344353787754?l=www.stockpursuit.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/stockpursuit/VhAe/~4/uVcFFkdIbEE" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description><link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/stockpursuit/VhAe/~3/uVcFFkdIbEE/new-net-nets-ifon-ldis.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Mark Perkins)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_TWSYXk_H8sE/SlB3Krv1RkI/AAAAAAAABSI/kV_Xk9qD6GI/s72-c/ldis1yr.jpeg" height="72" width="72" /><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">1</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://www.stockpursuit.com/2009/07/new-net-nets-ifon-ldis.html</feedburner:origLink></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5687330538138596839.post-2721205029403797190</guid><pubDate>Thu, 02 Jul 2009 06:31:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2009-07-03T06:54:22.878-04:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Net Current Asset Plays</category><title>Net Current Asset Stock PXG</title><description>I first put net current asset stock &lt;a href="http://www.stockpursuit.com/2009/04/retailers-surprisingly-strong-today-pxg.html " title="http://www.stockpursuit.com/2009/04/retailers-surprisingly-strong-today-pxg.html "&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;PXG on the blog&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; back in April because I noticed it was a net-net and hadn't had a big run-up like the rest of the industry.

It is still intact and the stock is probably going to test it any day now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="fullpost"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_TWSYXk_H8sE/Sk1vXHW5t9I/AAAAAAAABSA/uOPKDXfifdM/s1600-h/pxg+bb.jpeg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 314px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_TWSYXk_H8sE/Sk1vXHW5t9I/AAAAAAAABSA/uOPKDXfifdM/s400/pxg+bb.jpeg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5354057974916167634" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_TWSYXk_H8sE/Sk1vTXrn2xI/AAAAAAAABR4/KGd_PqCjX_4/s1600-h/pxg+plain.jpeg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 314px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_TWSYXk_H8sE/Sk1vTXrn2xI/AAAAAAAABR4/KGd_PqCjX_4/s400/pxg+plain.jpeg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5354057910578567954" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;full disclosure: no position&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5687330538138596839-2721205029403797190?l=www.stockpursuit.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/stockpursuit/VhAe/~4/_UfdHNfIg3s" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description><link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/stockpursuit/VhAe/~3/_UfdHNfIg3s/net-current-asset-stock-pxg.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Mark Perkins)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_TWSYXk_H8sE/Sk1vXHW5t9I/AAAAAAAABSA/uOPKDXfifdM/s72-c/pxg+bb.jpeg" height="72" width="72" /><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">0</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://www.stockpursuit.com/2009/07/net-current-asset-stock-pxg.html</feedburner:origLink></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5687330538138596839.post-5098861725761352826</guid><pubDate>Wed, 01 Jul 2009 22:33:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2009-07-03T06:54:33.174-04:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Net Current Asset Plays</category><title>Net Cash Play Actions Semiconductor ACTS</title><description>Cash has been declining since 2006 when they had $137 mil.

I might put some on off a pull-back. I guess technically speaking we have more of a rounding bottom formation but the break over resistance is significant. Looks like it is going to flag and maybe retest that new support. The way it has been trading on the daily charts as far as candlesticks makes it hard for me to get a good read on this last candle. But the technicals are good right here on a pull-back that moves off that longer support line.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Metal recycling and this stock has a little to do with what I've been thinking about as a future trend few might realize right now. All these heavy cars we are driving around for the next decade or so are probably going to be worthless when unleaded gas hits $8 a gallon. What's going to happen to all these cars?

They grew the top-line pretty well from 2006 to last year. Revenue grew year over year consecutively.

I never built the diversified portfolio of Net stocks like I was thinking of. This turns out to be good and bad. Part of the reason I didn't build it had to do with the fact that the data can be back-tested with the right database and software. Grab a cup of coffee and relax this post is a long one.&lt;span class="fullpost"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The other part is I've never been a fan of over diversification. Why accept market like returns? I understand the validity of it with Net-Net's but I like capital appreciation and would rather be a stock picker with them because I can be a very good one.

If you go back and look at a lot of those Net-Net's in that article and ones that I didn't even include in it like Pier One PIR that had an astounding 1,700% return from its March bottom I was &lt;a href="http://www.stockpursuit.com/2009/03/stock-analysis-cbou-penny-stocks_16.html " title="http://www.stockpursuit.com/2009/03/stock-analysis-cbou-penny-stocks_16.html "&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;onto actually&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Pier One PIR is desperately trying to bottom. Lot of buyers at $.12. Stock is about 30% of NCAV mostly inventory. Long-term debt is stable but it's a crap shot."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The technicals said go but most of my thoughts on the fundamentals said don't buy. The net current asset valuation was the writing on the wall though and I ignored it because I think to much which is usually a good thing. Well, I did find it interesting with the sub NCAV valuation and that is why I posted it and mentioned it for anyone interested. I guess it was also partly being afraid to be contrarian because of the unique economic crisis we have been going through. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The lesson is always go with a stock below net current asset value that jumps off the screen on me. They usually will outperform like a &lt;a href="http://www.stockpursuit.com/2008/03/its-official-finish-line-finl-is-cheap.html"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Finish Line FINL&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/A&gt; or &lt;a href="http://www.stockpursuit.com/2008/06/possible-turn-arounds-global-payment.html"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Heelys HLYS&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. Finish Line ran 170% after I posted on it and Heelys 30%. Tuesday Morning TUES was on the blog at $1 &lt;a href="http://www.stockpursuit.com/search/label/Net%20Current%20Asset%20Plays"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;in February&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; and hit $3.90. It goes on but I think you get the point.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What Pier One PIR and all those amazing returns tells us is that Net-Nets(net current asset values) can be useful as a contrarian strategy but more importantly &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;can be individually picked&lt;/span&gt; versus diversifying if you pick them like me. If I had gone with a diversified portfolio instead or market-cap weighted I imagine the results would have been more on par with the overall indices and small-cap market. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many Net-Net's have done quite well after I post them on the site as you can see. My accuracy with them on the blog and the ones that I didn't even include in those previous articles like MLR's 30% run after I picked it and so on has me considering charging a small monthly fee for access to my best Net-Net stock selections and contrarian picks (see Best of on righthand side-bar for just a portion of them). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't have the time to scan for short-term momentum trades like I do for my trading everyday and do the time consuming heavy research that is needed into companies for investing. I'm getting to a point where I need to get compensated for my time on fundamental analysis picks like Net-Net's. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Stock Pursuit is by far &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;the best site for Net-Net picks&lt;/span&gt;. It is often imitated but never trumped. This includes many other sites and blogs that will only post one hit wonder articles on the strategy and its history with maybe a dozen random stocks meeting the criteria. No other site that I know of posts as &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;frequently&lt;/span&gt; and consistently &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;strong returns&lt;/span&gt; from their Net-Net picks as Stock Pursuit does.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Google is with me on this as Stock Pursuit ranked 4th out of 117 million other sites for "stocks below net current asset value" and in the top 5 out of 30 million for "net current asset stocks". Google ranks sites based on authority and frequency of new content.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This blog will always keep going though with free content in one form or another so any pay site I do will be on a different site all together possibly. All of this subscription model depends on the momentum I can get going forward. I might include my pure technical picks as well on another site. Either or both of these might be moving to my domain DynamiteStocks.com We aren't talking expensive here. Maybe $1 to $5 a month. There will probably be a poll on the site sometime soon to see what readers and new visitors want so I can get the logistics in order to best serve you. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;full disclosure: no positions&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5687330538138596839-8999608728957574810?l=www.stockpursuit.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/stockpursuit/VhAe/~4/w5LYl4sXVsI" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description><link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/stockpursuit/VhAe/~3/w5LYl4sXVsI/net-current-asset-value-stocks.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Mark Perkins)</author><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">3</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://www.stockpursuit.com/2009/06/net-current-asset-value-stocks.html</feedburner:origLink></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5687330538138596839.post-1496641484667343309</guid><pubDate>Tue, 23 Jun 2009 01:43:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2009-06-22T21:44:34.259-04:00</atom:updated><title>Important Post Coming Up: Read This</title><description>Keep a heads up for an important post on net current asset stocks and my potential plans for dramatically changing what I do with my content on this blog.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5687330538138596839-1496641484667343309?l=www.stockpursuit.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/stockpursuit/VhAe/~4/YW9bSHWsD1g" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description><link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/stockpursuit/VhAe/~3/YW9bSHWsD1g/important-post-coming-up-read-this.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Mark Perkins)</author><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">1</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://www.stockpursuit.com/2009/06/important-post-coming-up-read-this.html</feedburner:origLink></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5687330538138596839.post-7416519217320248085</guid><pubDate>Fri, 19 Jun 2009 02:35:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2009-06-30T22:06:02.880-04:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Technical Analysis</category><title>Stocks To Watch</title><description>Metal recycling company MEA is trying to breakout over major resistance on good volume.

I posted on it again in the last post about how I was getting more confident on the short as I looked into the company more. There was a nice dip from $3 to $2.30 to be had this morning if you could find shares. The stock is actually barely holding up here but be careful. If it breaks down from here the set-up looks good. So if we start printing $2.15 and lower its golden. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ESLR isn't shaping up like I anticipated. I almost bought it today but it's better off to be patient here and wait for a confirmation on the breakout around $2.80s-$2.90ish.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;full disclosure: no positions&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5687330538138596839-7692511160101787135?l=www.stockpursuit.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/stockpursuit/VhAe/~4/zSm0qKInXHM" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description><link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/stockpursuit/VhAe/~3/zSm0qKInXHM/eslr-long-gwsc-short.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Mark Perkins)</author><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">0</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://www.stockpursuit.com/2009/06/eslr-long-gwsc-short.html</feedburner:origLink></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5687330538138596839.post-5548365814107438776</guid><pubDate>Tue, 16 Jun 2009 06:19:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2009-06-16T02:27:37.579-04:00</atom:updated><title>Follow Up to GWSC Short Watch</title><description>That news on the solar farm in Phoenix apparently &lt;a href="http://finance.yahoo.com/news/GWS-Technologies-Inc-bw-14826328.html?.v=1 " title=" "&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;is old news &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yep, I'm even more confident now this thing is going to collapse. The recent press release is just another step in that Phoenix project. The volume looks overdone and once it fades this stock is going to fall fast. It could run another day or few at the max so waiting for a technical breakdown probably ideally after the first red day looks good. I'll keep you updated. ESLR seems to have failed the breakout. It was up nice after my initial alert. It looks broken right now and I think the failed signal on the break is probably a good indicator for a short here soon.

My hunch is we get a gap up and an eventual retest if not clean breakout that continues. Of course the breakout could fail and in that case that failed signal would be a high probability short on the stock. The stock is very bullish though so far especially with this wide ranging day indicated by that long candle stick. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_TWSYXk_H8sE/SjCCg8cLAcI/AAAAAAAABPY/mOqZHX8X0Eo/s1600-h/eslr.jpeg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 247px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_TWSYXk_H8sE/SjCCg8cLAcI/AAAAAAAABPY/mOqZHX8X0Eo/s400/eslr.jpeg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5345916260180492738" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;full disclosure: no positions at time of writing&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5687330538138596839-5360875014504377064?l=www.stockpursuit.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/stockpursuit/VhAe/~4/Jrp17SFUuo0" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description><link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/stockpursuit/VhAe/~3/Jrp17SFUuo0/solar-stock-eslr-another-set-up.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Mark Perkins)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_TWSYXk_H8sE/SjB_Q3r-65I/AAAAAAAABPI/y2vh54XHsus/s72-c/solf.jpeg" height="72" width="72" /><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">0</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://www.stockpursuit.com/2009/06/solar-stock-eslr-another-set-up.html</feedburner:origLink></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5687330538138596839.post-3219409717755435866</guid><pubDate>Sat, 06 Jun 2009 01:26:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2009-07-04T01:15:40.226-04:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Net Current Asset Plays</category><title>Why You Must Invest In Penny Stocks</title><description>If you are swing trading or investing and want to maximize your returns you have got to have small-market capitalization stocks in your game. I'm talking about if you are trading with good old fashioned long positions not options or leveraged trading. In such cases, big-cap stocks could be fine for such strategies. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What do we do when it comes to investing?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You could build a portfolio that will essentially mimic a major index like the S&amp;P 500 or Dow Jones with boring names like Intel INTC, Microsoft MSFT, Exxon XOM or Walmart WMT and at best achieve overall market like returns. Or you could hold a lot of smaller companies with low priced stocks that can grow earnings and cash flow much faster and see their stock price grow to keep up. Even if you think you are a smart value investor buying Johnson and Johnson JNJ with a 50% margin of safety will always be trumped by a penny stock that goes from $2 to $5. But did he just say penny stocks? Aren't those the kind of dangerous stocks Wall Street professionals have been telling me to stay away from? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you don't know what you are doing though this strategy of buying stocks from $.01 to $5 could of course destroy your account completely. But then again so could have investing in &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;safe&lt;/span&gt; large-cap names like Wahington Mutual, AIG years ago or Lehman Brothers. After all they must have been safe after their history of amazing fundamentals and history of solid dividend payments right? Wrong. If you want safe go buy the safest instrument ever a 10 year U.S. treasury note...err maybe you'd be safer in foreign debt. No, how about commodities like gold and metals and oil. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, the point is &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;if you are trading stocks for capital appreciation you want the biggest return on your investment. Period. Buying stalwarts at $70 bucks isn't going to get you that. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another nice thing about penny stocks is sometimes they don't even have to perform that well to see big gains. Sometimes good companies get thrown into Wall street's trash bin just because of fear and or lack of interest. Other times a company will just be a chronic under performer or in its infancy. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From 1997 through 2006 small-caps by far crushed the returns of large-caps. The first and second top small-cap performers over that time were Hansen Natural HANS with a 25,000% return and Chico's CHS 8,000% gain. The top large-caps? Amgen 400% return and Morgan Stanley 390%. See the difference?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The average person holding a portfolio constructed similarly to the big names I mentioned earlier would not even in their lifetime be fortunate enough to move their entire portfolio 500%. Even if Jeremy Siegel ends up winning the Nobel Prize. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Check out the chart below of the stock price of Palm (PALM). 500% return in less than a year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_TWSYXk_H8sE/SiBo8Ons_nI/AAAAAAAABNQ/Eg9yguGHZrk/s1600-h/palm.jpeg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 247px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_TWSYXk_H8sE/SiBo8Ons_nI/AAAAAAAABNQ/Eg9yguGHZrk/s400/palm.jpeg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5341384541987470962" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Or take a Caribou CBOU &lt;a href="http://www.stockpursuit.com/2009/03/stock-analysis-cbou-penny-stocks.html " title="http://www.stockpursuit.com/2009/03/stock-analysis-cbou-penny-stocks.html "&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;that I was onto at $1.90 &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, then &lt;a href="http://www.stockpursuit.com/2009/03/stocks-in-play.html " title=" "&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt; the breakout&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. This chart is textbook in so many ways. See the black line that was resistance?
