Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Recap of NHMD & More

Nate’s Food Co. NHMD

First up today is a recap of NHMD, a stock that we’ve been continuously tracking since February, and one that has brought us multiple chances to profit. We revisited it in March after witnessing a consolidation to our observed low of .0012. It has since rocketed to new highs, breaking through its 200DMA and running to .014 yesterday. That marked an impressive run of 1066% over a span of less than two months!

We’ll be anxious to observe to followup activity to that huge spike. Ideally, we’ll see NHMD hold support at or above its 200DMA of .0115 on any pullbacks.

Cliffs Natural Resources, Inc. CLF

CLF was included in yesterday’s report after noticing a number of bullish indicators forming on the chart. It’s going to remain on our radar after the stock responded with a subdued but respectable performance on the day, as well as gapping up further in the premarket today.

So far we’ve only seen a 12% rise from this play, but will still be observing closely moving forward as it just cracked the 50DMA in a bullish manner, in addition to recently receiving an analyst upgrade as well as exhibiting significantly heightened volume.

New York & Company, Inc. NWY – Update

We wanted to take a minute this morning to update our readers on a recent bottom-watch call we made, and reiterate our interest in tracking its activity over an extended term.

We called attention to NWY in our premarket report from a week ago today, and while it has yet to really blast off, our timing in pointing out the bottom was about as good as it could have been. It has managed to establish higher lows in each of the four sessions since then, despite only seeing a marginal trading range of 11%

The stock remains heavily oversold, and as such will continue to have a slot of our watchlist moving forward on the chance that a more significant rebound is in the cards.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: CPXX Buyout & More

Celator Pharmaceuticals, Inc. CPXX

Just under a couple of weeks ago, we chose to alert CPXX in our morning report from May 19th. The stock had been gaining significant ground in sessions prior to that, to the point we felt it warranted our attention.

It was a good thing we drew attention to it when we did, because what followed was a solid run-up from our observed low of 15.73 into the $18-range. This morning, our witnessed gains received yet another big boost, as a takeover has been announced that will see CPXX acquired by Jazz Pharmaceuticals for $1.5B, or, 30.25 a share.

As of this morning’s premarket high on CPXX, our observed PPS increase on the stock in a matter of just seven trading sessions has been extended to a very solid 95%

Lending Club Corp. LC

Speaking of extended gains from plays that we’ve been discussing recently, we also had LC put up a noteworthy performance on Friday that culminated in new highs for us since we began tracking the stock.

Just to refresh our readers’ memories, we called LC as a bottom-bounce candidate last Monday, at which time we observed a low of 4.19. Friday’s run carried it to a high of 5.10, marking an intraweek move of 22%

We’re going to want to continue to monitor its progress as the chart is still looking quite ripe for a continued uptrend. As you can see on the provided chart snapshot, we’ve got a steadily-strengthening RSI combined with a recent bullish MACD cross in addition to a significant gap on the chart that runs from the 5.50’s to the 6.70’s.

Cliffs Natural Resources, Inc. CLF

We’re also going to place a tag on CLF this morning. We like the recent activity and the look of the current chart. Like the aforementioned play, we’re faced with a number of bullish indicators that are urging us to keep CLF on our radars as we kick off a new trading week.

Extended Watchlist:
CATS, NHMD, SQI, GEVO, NERV, FRO

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Fresh Options Ideas & More

Fresh Options Ideas

We’ve formulated a few new angles of approach with respect to options ideas that we’re going to share this morning, each with its own specific reason for appearing attractive at the present time.

United Parcel Service, Inc. UPS

We’re going to be taking a look at a range of medium-term UPS contracts, namely the April 8th $104 Calls, which we feel have a good chance at performing well in coming weeks on account of a number of factors.

The shipping sector as a whole is currently doing well due to boosted online sales, as top competitor FedEx’s reported earnings yesterday certainly reflected. We also like the look of the UPS chart from a technical perspective, as the following annotations demonstrate:

We also learned this week that the company is going to be increasing the size of its CNG (compressed natural gas) powered fleet, including an infrastructure build-out of several new CNG stations to support it. (>> VIEW PR)

SeaWorld Entertainment, Inc. SEAS

We also are going to be monitoring a range of Seaworld options, once again due to a fresh news release, as well as an attractive chart setup. As you can see on the provided snapshot, SEAS is showing a multiple bottom formation, and if it can continue to rebound off of its recent relative lows, appears to have a shot at a nice rebound over the next few weeks if history is any indicator.

We’re going to be watching the SEAS April 15th $18 Calls, which last traded at .16. If SEAS can rebound to the upper $19 range by that expiration date, the gains on these contracts could realistically approach ten-bagger territory.

SeaWorld, which has been under fire for years over their Killer Whale shows, has just announced that it will immediately cease its orca breeding programs, beginning a phase-out of the theatrical dog-and-pony-style performances and shift toward more natural displays. (>>View PR)
