I am an independent trader/investor. I like to look for opportunities to long and short equities with specific focus on companies that have gone public within the last four years.

  • GNC Too rich for my taste
    GNC has had a great ride since it's IPO on 4/1/11, from an open price of 16.60 to 24.42 in just 4 months.  I see a reversal happening with this stock.  I think it's set to pull back from these levels.  If you are aggressive, short this stock.  If you are a long only investor, exit your positions and stay on the sidelines for now.

  • NQ Too far too fast

    NQ is the kind of company that scares me.  The company went public on 5/5/11 and opened at 11.50. By 613/11, it was down at 4.02.  Not to mention, I have a hard time trying to figure out what the heck this company does besides it is the mobile security in the China market.  Since then it has rocketed to 7.25, still shy of the IPO debut price.  Well I don't think the company deserves such valuation and am looking for the price to pull back from here in the coming weeks.  Got to short this stock.

  • Are there good banks to invest in?
    The last few months have been terrible on the banks.  KBE, the bank index has been on a decline since mid February.  I don't blame you for being pessimistic on the banks. There is one small bank that I like, FIBK.  This is definitely better than say BAC. Why go with these big banks that do all these exotic stuff that we still have not really gotten to the bottom of.  It's most recent high is 14.94 on 7/7/11 and has sinced dropped to 12.47.  The stock is poised for a rally. Adding positions to FIBK.

  • Today could be the capitulation day on the SPY that people like me are looking for. If so, tomorrow is a good time to jump on SPY.
