Blue Horseshoe Stocks: TLM, HGSH & FRO Recaps

Talisman Energy, Inc. TLM

We began tracking TLM on Friday after noticing the stock coming up off of its recently-registered 52-week low, and on that day we observed a low of 4.17.

The stock made higher highs and higher lows yesterday following another inclusion in our morning report, making definite progress, but with a surprise buyout announcement early this morning the PPS has gone into overdrive.  The all-cash transaction is valued at $8 Billion, and has been unanimously approved on all sides.

CALGARY, ALBERTA–(Marketwired – Dec 16, 2014) – Talisman Energy Inc. (TLM.TO)(TLM) is pleased to announce that it has entered into a definitive agreement (the “Arrangement Agreement”) with Repsol S.A. under which Repsol will acquire all of the outstanding common shares of Talisman for US$8.00 (C$9.33) per share in cash. >> FULL PR

The premarket high thus far today stands at 7.74, which marks an increase of 85% that we’ve witnessed in TLM over the course of just a few days. Congrats to anyone who caught our pre-emptive alert and was able to take advantage!

China HGS Real Estate, Inc. HGSH

Another winning call off of yesterday’s report was HGSH; the stock appeared in our extended watchlist, and went on to have quite a fruitful session. The stock would open and briefly touch a low of 4.63 before spending the rest of the day on the rise, culminating in an afternoon high of 5.96.

That solid intraday move came on more than 10 the 3-month average volume, and represented a highly respectable increase of 29%

Frontline Ltd. FRO

Despite seeing a gap-down in this morning’s pre-market on the heels of a debt-for-equity program announced by FRO, we did see a nice move out of the stock yesterday after including it in our last couple of newsletters. It made an intraday move from 2.53 to 2.95 (+17%).

We observed a low of 1.88 on Friday, meaning that yesterday’s high figured in as a two-day overall increase of 57%

BioLineRx Ltd. BLRX

BLRX also appeared in yesterday’s extended watchlist, and while it had a tough time getting going yesterday, the stock is up significantly in today’s premarket activity on the strength of a new PR so we’ll be sure to monitor the situation as the week progresses.

The company has signed an agreement with pharma-giant Novartis, under which Novartis has made an initial equity investment in BLRX of $10M for 12.8% of BLRX’s current shares outstanding. Read more about it in the following news announcement:

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: ZAZA Update & More

ZaZa Energy Corp. ZAZA

We tagged ZAZA last Thursday on the heels of an earnings beat, and at the time, we mentioned that we’d put the stock on watch for a classic dip-and-rip scenario.

While it took more than a full session for it to settle back and find support, it did so on Friday, bouncing off of the 2.87-mark. Yesterday ZAZA continued to trend off of that bottom and reached a subsequent high of 3.60. For us, that marks a three-day turnaround on ZAZA with possible gains of up to 25%

In order for us to remain interested in ZAZA, we’ll need to see support hold at or above the 50DMA of 3.24.


Geron Corp. GERN

We also want to make mention of GERN, which we put on watch Friday after the company announced it had licensed its cancer treatment to a unit of Johnson & Johnson in a contract that could reportedly be worth up to $935 million.

After seeing a low of 2.72 from GERN initially on Friday, the stock began to rebound up to yesterday’s high of 3.10. (+14%) and appears to be gapping up slightly in the premarket today.

Folks might be interested in tuning in to the live webcast of GERN presenting at the Stifel 2014 Healthcare Conference in New York,  NY today at 1:50 p.m. EST. Webcast link can be found at GERN’s Website, HERE >>>

Gainers From Yesterday’s Watchlist

Extended Watchlist:
JNUG, AUY, DNDN, UEC, ONVO

FB Calls, GOGO, RNA, EXMT & Extended Watchlist

Facebook, Inc. FB – Options

We were looking for a dip-and-rip scenario from the FB 09/21 $45.50 Calls on Friday, and that is exactly what transpired. After dipping as low as .38, and closed at the high of day at 1.92, marking an enormous 405% intraday gain!

From when we originally mentioned these contracts on Wednesday, Friday’s close represented a move of 1820% off of the ten-cent low.

Gogo, Inc. GOGO

We started watching GOGO on Monday of last week, when the stock was trading as low as 14.79. At Friday’s peak, we observed a share price of 19.18, good for a nice 30% intraweek increase.

Remember, despite a very good short term performance from GOGO, that we are still keeping this stock on our long-term watchlist as well.

Prosensa Holding N.V.  RNA

RNA appeared in Friday’s extended watchlist, in which we clearly stated that we were watching for a bounce after a big gap-down, and that’s just what we got. The stock hit low of 5.65 before traversing its way up to 8.00. That was enough for single session gains of 42%

Anything Technologies Media, Inc. EXMT
This was an extended watchlist play of ours all last week, both on Monday, and Thursday. On Wednesday the stock was as low as .0009, and on Friday, as low as .0011 before closing at .0019. That call yielded us gains anywhere from 73-111%

This is one from our ongoing marijuana stock watchlist that we had noted coming down to its support level, and that sharp eye really paid off. It sets yet another example of why we always urge our readers to pay every bit as much attention to our extended watchlist plays as the stocks that we feature.
