Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Interesting Bottom Plays

Biglari Holdings, Inc. BH

We noticed BH this morning purely on the stock’s interesting chart setup. The stock had been crushed down at the end of last month after the company announced its recapitalization plan. We’re not saying the move shouldn’t have resulted in a decline in the stock’s price, but these selloffs tend to have a snowball effect, and BH has been over-abused.

Simply take a look at the chart below and you can see what we[re talking about. The RSI has been as heavily oversold as you’re likely to see, while the stock has begun to regain some of its lost ground. The MACD is also loudly signaling the potential for a rebound, so we’ll have our eyes peeled.

International Flavors & Fragrances, Inc. IFF

Speaking of bottom play opportunities, we may have an even more interesting one here in IFF today. This stock is currently boasting a cherry of a chart as well, with all of the indicators we commonly scan for showing strong impending bullish signals. Not to mention the Form-4 filed yesterday wherein a 10% ownership insider purchased a $25M block at just a penny below yesterday’s closing price, down here at the bottom.

To help us leverage some good gains out of this one if indeed it can mount the rebound we suspect it might, we’re going to want to be tracking the IFF 06/15 $125-135 Calls.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: AMRS, TTOO Recaps & More

 Cracker Barrel Old Country Store, Inc. CBRL

We were looking at a favorable setup on the CBRL chart along with a premarket earning beat in yesterday morning’s report, and we floated a couple of options ideas that worked out pretty well early on in the session.

We had the CBRL Weekly $150 & 151.50 Calls as well as the 10/20 $155 Calls on watch, and both our short -term and longer-term ideas provided excellent chances for multi-bag gains on the day.

The Weekly $150’s traded in a range from 1.01-4.00 (+296%), while the
$151.50’s ran from 1.10-2.79, gaining 154% intraday. Even the longer-term idea, the 10/20 $155’s more than doubled on the day, running 175% from 1.09-3.00.

Amyris, Inc. AMRS

We wanted to circle back for AMRS today to recap the past month of its performance on the chart. We put this play on bottom-watch on the morning of  August 15th, and as it turns out, our timing was pretty good. It was just a couple of sessions later when we observed a low of 1.86  in the stock, and it’s been mostly bullish moves since then.

Yesterday, AMRS hit a new high of 3.84, marking an overall increase of 106% in matter of just one month’s time. If the stock can manage to break its previous resistance around the 4.30 area, things could get really interesting.

Added Note:

T2 Biosystems, Inc. TTOO – In that same report from August 15th we were discussing the run we had seen from TTOO from 2.53 to its highs at the time just over $4. It too hit an impressive new high yesterday, at 6.99. That works out to a one month increase of 176%
