1) "PSYCLE SENSE sm": new:
3) Most recent Hypothetical
"PSYCLE sm" transactions, to be mimicked, and referred back to:
4) Already given out in previous NL's,
assumed Hypothetical "Long-side" positions:
7) other, still Extended/potentially
Toppy, "Puttables", near recent Highs Only, for potential Price Drops, using,
Only, L.T., in-the-money Puts Only, Always Diversified, w/stops if patterns abort
to the upside, for potential drops towards their 200 DMA's, at least:
a) Important Industry Group
(Rotation) notes:
1) as I was the first/only to suggest herein at its lows, CNBC said, Mon., 10:57 C.S. Einhorn, that "Coffee" supplies will be lower due to droughts, sending its price up further.... 2) as everyone else begins to get bullish on Bonds, 'market vane's' bullish consensus on them is now up to 72 %, its highest in a LONG time, so, watch out, right ? ....3) and realize that just 18 months ago, the currently super-bullish analysts now, were predicting Oil below $ 10., right ? Now, at $ 32, they are predicting $ 50. crude, dig ? you know what to do.... 4) the T-bond pulling back after breakout, normal, from 100-18 to 99-15 so far.... 5) speaking of Semis puttable, sems every analyst I observe, loves "CY" here....but, recall I was first/only to give out herein as put at recent rolling top for you for nice Gain, and now, just normal stage 5 or 6 bounce....still up against resistance, yes ? we shall see....as with the Energy I.G., they are all only 'now' saying, "it is still very early in the cycle" -- the same thing they said about teh Internet and Cellular stocks, before they fell -50 % and more, ay ?
b) more, misleading, sensationalized, Late, and/or
improper/incorrect comments from the Financial Media, Reporters, etc.:
1) CNBC, Fri., 11:22, gal reported negatively on Auto Parts stocks, so that helps on on any pullbacks, as you might figure.... 2) recent full-page Newspaper ad, says, "after 10 issues, you'll never buy a low-down, cheap stock again", and, "historically, what seems low and cheap usually sinks lower." Uh, WRONG....no further comment needed... 3) the pattern rarely changes: Mon., 12:45, CNBC's Joe Kernan highlighted "LH", late, as usual, in parabola, up + 100 % already, see it ? Gee, who was the first to suggest LH, much lower, on an S.I. site ? ....4) all day Mon., CNBC'ers were trumpeting a small % pop in extended Brokerage stocks as if it was a big deal, dig ? always happens as rollover tops form, yes ? ....5) Tue. 8:33, CNBC's T. Matheson actually correctly surmised, "people can criticize the low trading volume all they want, as the market goes higher and higher....by the time the masses get in, couldn't it be too late ?" kudos....
c) more incorrect/misleading/sensationalized, and/or
improper comments, from Fundamentalists/Companies, newspapers/magazines, etc.,
vs. illogical/Contrary/Unlinkable, past/present/future stock price moves:
1) int. article in barrons 8/21, "Just a Commodity ? ....no big boost from Crude" Andrew Bary (an actually decent guy, as I have mentioned herein B4), suggests one reason why "Intl. Oil and/or natural resource stocks" have not skyrocketed even with Crude price rise, is because they are still cyclical (which is what I also say)....the Amex Oil stk. index is only up + 20 % since early 1999 (!) while cash Crude is up + 160 % since then....
d) more, likely late, incorrect, and/or misleading,
comments, from Brokerage firms, NL writers, Analysts, economists, Money Managers,
etc.:
1) some saavy B-firm (sic) on CNBC, Mon. 8:52, now hates WHR, after loving it all the way down....as usual, where were thay much higher ? the pattern rarely changes.... 2) in a rare probably-correct article, Aug. written Ticker Mag. likes MAT down here....compelling turnaround poss.,,as with HAS, I agree.... 3) recent Barrons 8/21 finally rec'd. IBC, 19 up from 12 wher I gave it out herein, as a "Tasy Turnaround ?" the pattern rarely changes....
e) more general items proving why one should probably
ignore 95 % of everything else out there:
1) a recent study by the AARP, shows that, contrary to appearances in Media, americans "have no desire to be rish"....hmmmmm...."people and baby boomers not enchanted with their work, are stepping back and asking, is it worth it....when is enough, enough ? ....family comes first for most...." They cite as 'what money can do for them', "suppoort family, contribute to worthy causes, reduce stress, and add excitement to their lives...." Interesting, huh.... 2) did you know that Foriegn ownership of U.S. Assets is $ 6.4 trillion, about 2/3 of them ? and 38 -44 % of our Treasury securities and 20 % of our Corporate debt (according to Bridgewater's Mr. Jensen in 8/21 Barrons)....sounds a little high to me, and these guys have been super-bearish for decades ....dig ? But, of course, Barron's fails to give their L.T.T.R. Anyway, America's ownership of Foreign assets, at $ 4.7 trillion (48 % of our GDP), is less....this leaves an unprcedented imbalance of 18 % of our GDP....Whether that will be good or bad down the road (so far, iut has been a Good thing, right ? contrary to what the Media has been improperly trying to warn us about for years, yes ?), is unknown....Interestingly, Foreigners own just 8 -14 % of our 'equities' (stocks)....the article was bearish all-around....we shall see....
3) recent article, L.A.T., 8/27, "Cheap Shots at a Steep Price ?", mentioned what I have been saying for years: that the Media's overcoverage of Political stuff, esp. humorous jabbings, is, in effect, telling people it is O.K. Not to care, dig ? It also sends negative vibes to youngsters (don't get me started), and hurts the psyche of america....Of course, one otther culprit is the "system of just 2 parties, hypocrisy, power, graft, etc." ....4) I couldn't believe that Ticker Mag. actually gave a guy a full-page, who supposedly uses 'solar wind patterns and ion ratios' to try to predict stock indexes, daily....I won't even dignify by giving his name, but, I have seen several of these kinds of guys, and none made anyone anything over decent time periods....Stupidly (as usual, right ?), they said, "he has the numbers to back it up....the last 6 months, beginning Jan. 2000, he outperformed...." To which I say, show me several years, and then maybe I will listen....but, of course, Ticker did not....next....the behavior rarely changes....
So, as you have seen, for years now, how well one does,
often, just "doing" the best 'individual' stocks, and rotating Ind. Groups,
chart-technically, and sentiment-wise, mostly long-side, while ignoring, or going
contrary to, 95 % of all Media messages, and "indexes/averages" comments, from
the peanut gallery ? By just getting my output, alone, you do much better, and
save time, by not having to even try to "seek, and process" tons of other,
useless fundamental info., anyway....and we also help remove potential emotional
problems for you, before they begin....
Always remember to view
"1-year-at-least past" charts of everything you can view, herein, along with
their 200 day moving averages (DMA's), to "see/learn" the "PSYCLE patterns", and
see where/when stocks in section (3) were Hypothetically bought near lows, and
put near highs....all % percentage 'Gains' are just logical ESTIMATES for L.T.,
ITM options, where exist, and/or on Margin, where no options exist....
"Q" = 'quick', i.e., after
less than a month or so holding, "VQ" = 'very quick', i.e., just a couple of
weeks time, and "VVQ" = 'very very quick', i.e., often after just a few days
since 'bought' herein....and, L.T., means 'long-term', i.e., at least a few
months' time holding period:
bal. stock MSN (0.75 to 2.44) for L.T. 211% G.... 1/2 pos. stk.on.mgn. GSTRF (7+ to 10++) for Q 75% G....1/2 pos. puts MYGN (166 to 130) for VQ 90% G....1/2 pos. puts HSII (73 to 57) for VQ 90% G....bal. puts MACR (88 to 64) for Q 100% G....1/2 pos. stk.on.mgn. ARG (4 13/16 to 6 11/16) for 66% G....1/2 pos. calls AOL (51++ to 59) for VVQ 55% G....and, stk.on.mgn. LOR (7++ to 5++ to 8+), for VS % G....
and/but, longs, ACK, LE, GAP, ACI, MPS !!?, CSCQ ?, and, puts, INFA, PLCM, SEBL, MANU, PWER, CHKP, ORCL ?, PMCS, NEWP, GS, APA, IVV ?, for very quick, very small losses, of small overall consequence to a properly diversified L.T. portfolio....still way too many recent QSL's....
NOTE: while most of the $ 5. to $ 10. stocks are listed here
as "stocks on margin" ("stk.on.mgn."), if one Had bought L.T., in-the-money calls
options, their % Gains/Losses would have been multiplied, higher, right ? We
prefer not to buy Calls on most stocks under $ 10., unless their patterns are
phenomenal, as their options premiums tend to be too high, vs. buying those
stocks on Margin, with close stops, where suitable, instead, with less arithmetic
risk, and yet, similar reward potential--- stocks themselves have no "premium",
right ? and, of course, if one just bought said longs for cash, and not on
margin, the % Gains/Losses here would be relatively smaller, though still
excellent, for such short holding periods, yes ? also, obviously, these
"hypothetical transactions" are always listed, from biggest % Gains, to smallest,
then all losses....
(either for Cash, especially in Pensions,
and/or on Margin where suitable, and/or Only L.T., in-the-money Options, where
suitable/available, always Diversifying, always with close Stops below/above

Puts list, before "put", as they aborted their patterns immediately (also see recent past issues taken off, here).... remember, any new highs = off the Puts list....so VIEW their charts, to see what 'aborted Puts patterns' look like, for YOUR lifetime benefit....also, obviously, where they have fallen nicely, many of these were 'just missed' herein as well, right ?
*** and/but, among stocks recently given you herein, in sections (6) and (7)
below, we "just Missed", HAS, SWM, TMP, ICIX, UAL, CNF, NWK, HOMS, GSR, OPI, LBRT, IR, DIR, MT, STE, HLTH, FMKT, COVD, as Longs/Buys near very recent lows, and, ANEN, RKY, LSCC, MRVC, as Puts/Shorts, near recent highs....Every single stock ever listed here over past NL's was specifically given you herein, in sec. (6) or (7), previously, and you very likely could still have caught them, if you took the time to view their charts recently....More proof of the power of "PSYCLE sm" patterns....again, just because I honestly admit to "missing" some, which DO work anyway, that I give you herein, does not mean YOU have to miss those same stocks ....if you do just a little work, YOU may certainly catch ones, which I may just miss, herein....making you money, in both directions, most of the time, yes ?
(issues moving since last time, worthy of following-up, and/or
mentioning, because of recent price moves, still remaining long in most all of
them, unless otherwise noted):
