Like clockwork Diageo goes up for the holidays, down for the hangover and up again for the Super Bowl. The trick is calling the highs and lows (or, realistically, calling the right neighborhood of the high and low). This year I am shooting to sell at $69 and buy back at $62.

DEO Holiday Bonus?
Friday, October 30th, 2009AGEN
Wednesday, October 21st, 2009In at 1.21 (should have stuck to my 1.20). Limit sell at 1.88 with alerts at 1.8 and 1.02
ICU Medical Inc. (ICUI)
Wednesday, October 21st, 2009Good financials and this: ICU Medical board increases stock buyback program
The stock spiked after that announcement. Set alert for $36 to review again when the excitement wears off.
News Corp. (NWSA)
Thursday, September 17th, 2009Set an alert at $10 today.
Ferreting Out Ferrellgas Partners LP
Wednesday, September 16th, 2009I was thinking about stuff I spend money on, looking to get a little back, and notice a Blue Rhino delivery truck. Long story short (in time this time), they are owned by FGP. The stock doesn’t look attractive at the moment, but keeping an eye on it.
Cubist Pharmaceuticals Inc. (CBST)
Saturday, September 12th, 2009Good pipeline, fair financials. Looking for it to drop below $20 again.
Walmart
Saturday, September 12th, 2009InvesterPlace.com says “buy $54 or less”. AskStockGuru.com today says:
Retracement Trade: Consider buy when the price retraces around 48.98 if you are aggressive. Alternatively, a conservative buy would be around 47.57.
I like to split the difference and set a limit at 48.28 and an alert at 46.
