The market selloff means we’re doing quite well with our Research In Motion September 18, 2010 65 put option. Stick with it if you own it; new clients should hold off on purchasing the option. Though down today, copper has actually held up quite well, perhaps because… Read More

Investor pessimism has been growing of late, with plenty of events to point toward for that bearishness. The primary fear is that Europe is going to drag the global economy back into recession. China is another top concern, with the air coming out of its property “bubble” and the stock market drop on the Shanghai Exchange. Read More

Among our trading positions, China Telecom is joining China Telecom in offering Research In Motion’s (RIMM) Blackberry on its 3G network. The news gave the stock a slight nudge, but from a technical perspective the stock continues to look dreadful. The Research In Motion September 18, 2010 65 put option is a buy for new clients with a limit order set to buy on a pullback to $5.55 per contract.   We’re seeing a nice bounce today, but copper was absolutely slammed yesterday, falling 5.5 percent. We suspect the Chinese are on a buying strike ahead of the country revaluing its currency. That could occur at anytime, judging by statements from various Chinese officials. After the initial move, the yuan will be able to buy that much more copper. And if we see a repeat of the last time the yuan was allowed to float higher, the gains in copper and other commodities that follow will be impressive. The Freeport Copper & Gold August 21, 2010 75 call option is a buy at its current price.   Famed hedge fund investor George Soros has upped his stake in CVS Caremark (CVS) by 91.5 percent to 1.7 million shares according to an SEC filing this week. So we’re in good company. Stick with the CVS Caremark August 21, 2010 37 call option.   Gabriel Resources (GBU.TO, GBRRF) reported its quarterly results the other day, but there were no surprises. The stock remains a buy for new clients as a speculation that it will soon be granted permission to proceed with Europe’s largest gold mine.   Read More

We made several moves last week, including selling the Garmin October 16, 2010 38 put option one day after we added it for a 32 percent gain. We added another bearish bet in the form of Research in Motion September 18, 2010 65 put option for a similar reason: the overvalued stock should fall as it becomes clear earnings can’t support the lofty share price. Set a limit to buy on a pullback to $5.60 per contract if you don’t own the option.   We also added the Freeport Copper & Gold August 21, 2010 75 call option sensing the selloff in the stock was vastly overdone. That’s still the case today. New clients should set a limit to pay no more than $5.50 per contract.   CVS Caremark (CVS) has struggled with the market in the last week earnings, despite producing solid earnings. Stick with the CVS Caremark August 21, 2010 37 call option.   There’s no news to report but Gabriel Resources (GBU.TO, GBRRF) stock is a buy for new clients.   The Abercrombie & Fitch May 22, 2010 31 put option is a hold.   Next regularly scheduled issue, Tuesday, May 18.   RESULTS SINCE AGGRESSIVE TRADER’S INCEPTION Read More

Greece is getting a $146 billion bailout, ending another chapter in the crisis that is into its third year. But given the sad financial shape Portugal and Spain find themselves in there’s reason to believe that it won’t be the last chapter. Read More

This morning we added the Garmin October 16, 2010 38 put option. The stock is overvalued and the company is facing stiff competition, particularly from “smart” phones. If past quarterly numbers releases are any guide, tomorrow’s report could prove to be a good catalyst for the stock to decline. Set… Read More
