DEO Holiday Bonus?

FYW Dude — Fri, 30 Oct 2009 16:03:48 +0000

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. Follow me here to see how it works out

In 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)

Good 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)

Set an alert at $10 today.

I 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)

Good pipeline, fair financials. Looking for it to drop below $20 again.

Walmart

InvesterPlace.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.
