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.
Let's look at some of my past picks and see how they performed.
While the broader market fell dramatically since the beginning of August, my picks have performed extremely well. Below are the results.
On 8/2/11, I suggested going short on NQ and GNC. NQ closed at 7.75 on Aug 2. Today it's at 6.47. It traded as low as 5.97 on 8/8/11. GNC closed 24.42 on Aug 2. Today it's at 23.52. It traded as low as 21.51 on 8/9/11.
On 8/5/11, I suggested going long on MKTG at 12.70. Today it's at 15.12. It traded as high as 15.99 on 8/10/11.
On 8/10/11, I suggested going long on VHS at 12.63 and KIOR at 10.04. VHS trades at 14.54 and as high as 14.71 on 8/15/11. KIOR trades at 10.94 and as high as 11.80 on 8/11/11.

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.
