May 29, 2014

C lick here to see an enlarged chart. An investor who has decided to invest in precious metals has four choices: gold, silver, platinum, and palladium. This article is limited to choosing between gold and silver. There are times when gold is a better investment, and there are times when silver is a better investment. Let us start by looking at the charts.

A NEW IDEA ON PROSENSA HOLDING $RNA $PTCT

May 29, 2014

This post was just published on ZYX Short Change Alert. RNA is a development stage biotech company. Until yesterday shares had moved up in sympathy with the success at PTCT. Today’s shares are moving up strongly again as investors react to company releasing its presentation to be made at Jeffries on June 4 2014. The up-move on the stock is way overdone. There is an opportunity to make about 40% in a short time but there is high risk of a short squeeze. Further, there is a high risk because the company can be bought out at a much higher price.

TAKE PARTIAL PROFITS ON SMITH & NEPHEW AS PER THE PLAN $SNN $SYK $ZMH

May 29, 2014

This post was just published on ZYX Buy Change Alert. We clearly stated yesterday that the plan was to take partial profits on SNN if the stock rose today. In the pre-market, the stock is rising about $4 to $87. Those who took on a full position of 40% with anticipation of taking some profits today may consider taking profits on a 10% tranche right here around $87 and plan to take profits on an additional 10% before the market close in the zone of $86 to $92. These kind of stocks have a tendency to run in the afternoons.

OMINOUS BREAK IN GOLD HAS INVESTORS ON EDGE $GLD $SLV $GDX $GDXJ $NEM $GG

May 28, 2014

Please click here for the annotated chart. Gold broke technical supports, shown on the chart, Tuesday, which could have important implications for the short term. The break is ominous because the support that is now broken was a strong support characterized by a triple bottom. This triple bottom was formed at the end of a down trend that started in March. On March 14, 2014, I made an unequivocal call to sell/short gold and silver. That call has proven spot on, as it coincided with the exact top in gold as shown on the chart. This was the top

PLENTY OF FUEL FOR APPLE TO ROCKET UP $AAPL $GOOG $MSFT $MS

May 28, 2014

When a stock is under owned and good news comes, there are plenty of buyers to move the stock up. On the other hand, when a stock is over owned, there aren’t many buyers left to push it higher and even the slightest bit of negative news can push the stock down. According to Morgan Stanley, the top 100 institutional investors cut their holdings of Apple in the first quarter of 2014. Morgan Stanley also says that Apple is the only large cap technology company with institutional ownership less than its weight in S&P 500. There are three technology companies,

A NEW IDEA ON SMITH AND NEPHEW $SNN $SYK $ZMH

May 28, 2014

This post was just published on ZYX Buy Change Alert. This is suitable for aggressive investors only. After the recent buyout by ZMH of Biomet, it makes all the sense in the world for SYK and SNN to merge to stay competitive in the orthopedics business. There was a report this morning that SYK is preparing a bid for SNN. The report has since been refuted. Any bid will likely be around $100. Consider slowly accumulating SNN in the zone of $75 to $82.50 for a maximum of 40% of the full core position size. The stock is at $81.40 as of
