Overall I see a slow grind upwards. I have an optimistic view in that we are about to see new highs. I really like the trends for bio techs and metals right now and will be concentrating my trades in those sectors.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Last Week&#8217;s Plays:<\/p>\n<p>$GALE (Galena Biopharma Inc.) Cost Per Share: $4.00 Current Price: $3.91<\/p>\n<p>Started buying this stock at $3.72 and I think I did rather well in my timing. ER will be crucial for this stock but I think $6 is a reasonable TP.<\/p>\n<p>Coming Plays:<\/p>\n<p>$RNN (Rexahn Pharmaceuticals Inc.) Cost Per Share: $1.12 Current Price: $1.08<\/p>\n<p>Still very bumpy with this stock. Kind of makes me nervous. I am not sure how much longer I will stay with this stock.<\/p>\n<p>$CNDO (Coronado Biosciences Inc.) Cost Per Share: $2.23 Current Price: $2.70<\/p>\n<p>This stock is turning out to be a DTs dream come true. I have seen this stock cycle so many times it is crazy. It tells me two things. 1) I am losing some opportunities to cycle and 2) it is still a strong stock (all we need is a new test study to come out).<\/p>\n<p>$PLUG (Plug Power Inc.) Cost Per Share: $3.41 Current Price: $3.63<\/p>\n<p>Look at CNDO.<\/p>\n<p>$ARIA (Ariad Pharmaceuticals Inc.) Cost Per Share: $6.83 Current Price: $8.87<br \/>\nLot of chatter on this stock but I can&#8217;t see anything of substance. The good news is the stock is slowly grinding its way up which is good.<\/p>\n<p>$HA (Hawaiian Holdings Inc.) Cost Per Share: $7.03 Current Price: $11.28<\/p>\n<p>I am really not sure what is going on but options activity on this stock have increased significantly. I think a breakout may be imminent but I still don&#8217;t see the catalyst.<\/p>\n<p>$HYSR (Hypersolar Inc.) Cost Per Share: $.01 Current Price: $.0049<\/p>\n<p>Still nothing to report.<\/p>\n<p>$CNSL (Consolidated Communications) Cost Per Share: $18.95 Current Price: $19.20<\/p>\n<p>Nothing to really report here. Going well. My strategy here is to just let it sit.<\/p>\n<p>$OPK (OPKO Health Inc.) Cost Per Share: $9.19 Current Price: $8.83<\/p>\n<p>The stock is starting to trend. I could see $10.00 coming this week.<\/p>\n<p>$SIRI (Sirius XM Radio) Cost Per Share: $3.19 Current Price: $3.61<\/p>\n<p>Still watching the paint dry on this one.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The stock market in my opinion is trying to make up it&#8217;s mind if it is going to break up into new highs or sink very low.
