Friday’s Half Day Runners, A Pair of New Ideas

Friday’s Half Day Runners:

It was a rather subdued finish to the short holiday week on Friday, just as we surmised it would be in our premarket report for the day. That didn’t stop us from formulating a few options ideas to close things out, all three of which posted some sort of intraday movement. The holidays can be rather laid back, and we’re looking at a sleepy start to this week as well, with no major earnings reporters on the slate for this morning.

Friday’s runners were the HTHT Weekly $35 Calls, the BABA Weekly $78-79 Calls, and the SPY 11/24 $454 Calls, and here are the numbers they recorded on the session:

HTHT Weekly $35 Calls
$35:
 2.50-2.85 (+14%)
_____

BABA Weekly $78-79 Calls
$78:
 .31-.65 (+110%)
$79: .10-.24 (+140%)
_____

SPY 11/24 $454 Calls
$454: .86-1.41 (+64%)

Star Alliance International Corp. (OTCMKTS:STAL) – Recap:

As we were just reminding our readers on Friday, we’ve been tracking STAL since our report on  November 3rd, and a PPS of .001, and the stock has been setting impressive new highs. That happened once again during Friday’s session, with the stock reaching a new high of .0177, which represents an astonishing 1670% rise over our initially observed low earlier this month!

Blackstar Enterprise Group, Inc. (OTMKTS:BEGI) – Recap:

Another one that has popping up on our watchlists for quite some time is BEGI, which, following our tag on October 30th, has run from a low of .0008, up to Friday’s high of .0105, which marks an upswing of 1212%

The OTC Markets in general seem to be heating up recently, which is why we suggest going through our daily extended watchlist for potential hidden subpenny gems, as STAL and BEGI have turned out to be. We aren’t being paid to promote any of the penny stocks in our extended watchlists, we merely do a routine daily scan for interesting potential targets for readers to consider.
