Free Stock Picks for June 2018

Week 1 (June 1 - 8):   The economy is just right.  Short-term calm and low volatility usually create a "smart-money" outflow and a short-term dip that you should buy . . . maybe by tomorrow.  Consider the growth stocks GTES, and OFG.  Look at the ETFs:  XLI, PSCI, and XSD.   Good dividend growth stocks are CVRR, STX, HCLP and TRTN.  No one can predict the future or the next recession so all attempts to do so are merely…

May Market Beating Stock and Fund Picks

Week 1 (May 1 - 4):  Uncertainty about the Fed, a flattening yield curve, and China trade issues are offsetting strong earnings and a higher rate of economic growth.  The result is a trading range for stocks.  Eventually, something must give and the market will head one way or another.  Hopefully, that will be another leg up.  For growth stocks, consider DAN and HUN.  The best ETF is EWS and the best mutual fund is FKCSX.  The best dividend growth…

April Market Beating Stock/Fund Picks

Trump remains the stock markets worst enemy.  True, China is a problem.  They cause 95% of our trade deficit, steel our technology and intellectual property, and respond to our complaints with a trade war.  Re-allocating plant and equipment from China to Mexico may seem plausible but it is likely that Trump would sabotage that.  Re-allocating capital to the US would only lead to less efficient production, higher prices, inflation and increasing demand for workers from Mexico.  Trump would oppose the…

March 2018 Market Beating Stock/Fund Picks

Week 1/2 (March 1 -9): Markets are beginning to adapt to real growth less the uncertainty of trade-war possibilities.  The growth and earnings side are great while the trade-war issue will probably remain for some time before hopefully fading in importance.  With that I'll recommend some stocks and funds to consider adding to your portfolio.  The Gary Cohn resignation may generate nothing more than a short-run buying opportunity.  I sympathize with Gary Cohn.  He is a free-trader, as am I.  Placing…

February Stock and Fund Picks

Week 1 (Feb. 1 - 9): I am always amused when I hear a stock described as "poised for explosive growth."  It's a catchy line but the same holds for any stock in the market.  Odds are, you will be right some of the time.  The only thing I will say about my stock picks is that they are subject to rigorous research and systematic screening and that some of them, even in the short-run of only a month, will…

January 2018 Weekly Stock Picks

Week 1 (Jan 2 - 5): The conservative strategy is to not chase stocks when they are up, but buy on the dips instead.  Maybe wait for a 1% - 2% pull back in the market or a given stock or fund.  For growth, take a look at OLLI, MULE, EDIT, GBT, HUN, AME, NUAN, PTI, HMLSF (Horizons Marijuana Life Sciences Index ETG), TPL, NUAN, AMG, MAS, and IBKR.  For dividends consider GSBD and BREUF.  Pull backs require you keeep…

December 2017 Stocks of the Week

Week 1 (December 4 - 8): A very necessary Tech correction (i.e., the elevator down) is underway.  This will allow for the next leg up among high-flying, high-earning tech stocks (i.e., the slower "back up the stairs")among their respective market valuations).  Once the correction bottoms, buying will again dominate so look for entry points such as the MACD (a chart indicator) crossing upwards and into the buying zone. Growth stocks strongly recommended by analysts include BIDU, KLIC, DQ, PAYC, DXC,…

October 2017 Stock Pick Performance

October was an overall bad month for stocks and stock picking.  While the Base Stock picks outperformed all thee stock indexes (S & P 500, DOW, NASDAQ), the weekly stock picks did not. Even though the base stock picks outperformed, I am selling USCR and adding FTEC to the base stock portfolio.  Access the October Base Stock portfolio performance through the following link.

Weekly Stock Picks for November 2017

Week 1 (Nov. 1 - 10): Goldilocks global economy and the three bears are no where in site.  Consider SQ, INTC, MMM, GRUB, MB, SAFM, ASIX, LAZ, and CRL for growth.  Some of these like MMM, and LAZ also pay dividends that offer more growth.  Keep cash on hand for any corrections, or for buying TVIX at the start of a correction to acquire even more cash.  Rising interest rates may steal some allure from high yielding ETFs and CEFs…

September 2017 Stock Pick Performance

September was another challenging month. So many fear October that sellers tend to dominate the month and finding stocks that might make gains is more challenging. The Base stock portfolio beat the NASDAQ and performed nearly as well as the DOW and S & P 500. The best performer was the regional banks (KRE). Shopify (SHOP) was second best, but has since been "short bombed" by a Citron analyst and will need to find a new bottom, probably somewhere below…
