Blue Horseshoe Stocks: PLKD Update, WTW & More

Weight Watchers International, Inc. WTW

The hype-fueled wave of buying pressure connected to Oprah Winfrey’s announced investment in WTW continued to push the stock higher yesterday. We began on Monday by commenting that this would be one of the major stories of the week, and it has certainly turned out that way.

Though we’ve been focused on several different plays in the WTW options chain, the move we’ve observed in just a couple of sessions from the stock itself has been rather impressive as well. From Monday’s low of 10.76, we’ve witnessed a two-session increase amounting to 78% as of yesterday’s high of 19.15.  After pulling back slightly the stock once again pushed past the $19-mark in premarket trading today.

As to the sustainability of this big run, we have to keep in mind that nothing has changed materially for Weight Watchers, which remains deeply in debt. As we said, the upward pressure is being caused simply due to the perceived value of Oprah’s name and inclusion on the board. We’ll continue to take advantage of the momentum while it’s still possible, but take it under advisement, that at some point this hysterical buying will give way to a substantial selloff as traders actualize their recent substantial gains. On the other side of that eventuality, we’ll also be ready and waiting to formulate some related bounce-play ideas.


MaxSound Corp. MAXD

We included MAXD on yesterday’s extended watchlist, and the stock did come through with a fair opportunity to bank a significant profit with the intraday increase it managed. We observed a daily low of .0275, which gave way to a subsequent high of .0372. That registered as a solid 35% upswing, and occurred on a fair amount of volume to the tune of more than thrice the 3-month average.

The look of the chart still appears bullish, with the RSI about to breach into the powerzone and the MACD showing upward divergence. The next areas of resistance beyond the 200DMA of .041 are sitting at .045 and .055. Yesterday marked the third consecutive session that MAXD posted higher highs and higher lows, qualifying it for momentum play status. Provided it continues to follow that pattern, we’ll remain interested in this play.


Peasant Kids, Inc. PLKD

We also want to pat ourselves on the back for our notion on PLKD a week ago today. We noted that we’d be interested in the stock if it could maintain support above its 200DMA of .0599 on a consolidation from the previous day’s run, and not only did it hold at .06 that day, but it has been on a continuous run since then. It culminated in a high of .14 yesterday, marking a five session swing of 133%

We’ll continue to stay hot on its trail following this morning’s announcement of a substantial share reduction:

MIAMI, Florida, October 21, 2015 /PRNewswire/ — Pleasant Kids, Inc. (PLKD) today announced that the Board of Directors has authorized a reduction in the amount of shares authorized by the company from 9,500,000,000 to 360,000,000 by filing a Certificate of Amendment with the State of Florida. >> VIEW PR

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: PZOO News & Other Updates

Pazoo, Inc. PZOO

We directed our attention at PZOO to start off the week, and so far the stock has put on a good performance. From a low of a penny on Monday we saw a nice move up, and yesterday the stock continued to build a higher base of support.

We witnessed a trading range from .0131 to .0144, a modest 10% intraday move; from our observed low on Monday, that’s registered as a nice 44% intraweek swing.

We’re going to need to keep our eye on PZOO as the week progresses, especially in light of the important news update we received from the company this morning regarding its ongoing expansion into the marijuana testing business (excerpt below).

WHIPPANY, N.J., May 20, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Pazoo, Inc. (OTC:PZOO), is pleased to announce that wholly-owned subsidiary Harris Lee has gained the exclusive right to operate testing laboratories in the State of Colorado utilizing Steep Hill Labs’ highly-rated testing techniques and methodology.

Colorado is the third state in which Pazoo Inc. subsidiaries have created a license relationship with Steep Hill for their testing technology. Agreements have been established with Steep Hill in Nevada, Oregon and now Colorado. >> FULL PR


PlasmaTech Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. PTBI

PTBI is another call we made on Monday which has also returned a noteworthy two-day performance. It’s one that we had already tracked  over an impressive range earlier this month, and when we rehashed it on Monday, we observed a low of 8.05.

Yesterday the stock pushed its way to a high of 10.83, marking a 35% swing. We want to continue to keep a keen eye on PTBI; this morning’s PR alludes to the granting of Orphan Drug status to a couple of the company’s products by the FDA:


NOHO, Inc. DRNK

DRNK also appeared in yesterday’s premarket report, and we wanted to mention the activity that ensued. After gapping up in the morning, the stock executed a dip-and-rip pattern, coming down to bounce off of a low of .0054 before running back to .0076, providing a chance at up to 41% in intraday gains.

Enviro-Serv, Inc. EVSV

We mentioned EVSV along with MNKD yesterday, and it too made a strong move on the day. From .001 the stock found a subsequent high of .0015 for a nice, round, 50% pop.


Side Note:

We’re going to have an eye on HIHI as well today on the heel of some share reduction news. The company is reducing the outstanding shares by nearly a third, so we’ll be interested to follow the resulting price action. >> VIEW PR

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: PZOO Recap & More

Pazoo, Inc. PZOO

Our timing in re-alerting our readers to PZOO’s prime positioning in yesterday’s premarket report was absolutely spot-on. The stock had finally found and bounced off of a solid level of support in the prior session, and yesterday’s trading range provided a great chance for traders to make a solid buck.

From an early low of a penny, the needle was pointing up all day as PZOO ran into the end of the session, hitting .0136 for an intraday gain of 36% The stock closed just two ticks below its high of day (.0134) and logged a trading volume of nearly double the 3-month average.

Anytime we see a momentous daily performance like that, we’re always on the lookout for residual gains in following sessions.

We also want to remind our readers that today is the start of the a 4th Annual Marijuana Business Conference and Expo in Chicago, at which PZOO has secured a booth. It’s currently the country’s largest cannabis trade show, and runs from today through Thursday, with most of the activities kicking off tomorrow..

*We know that we have quite a few subscribers in the Greater Chicagoland Area, so we’d suggest going over to the conference at the Chicago Hilton to visit with Pazoo’s reps. The first 200 people to stop at the booth will receive a free custom t-shirt. >> Official PR


Plug Power, Inc. PLUG

We re-tagged PLUG, an old favorite, in our morning report from a week ago today. At the time, we saw a marginal gain from 2.48-2.73, and after spending another few sessions under an overall consolidation, PLUG found support yesterday at 2.53 where it began to rebound. In the premarket today the stock has traded as high 2.80.

We’re going to extend an options idea for PLUG that is significantly long-term; the September 18th $3.00 Calls (Last Traded: .19) could be in line to provide us with a solid opportunity/opportunities in the weeks and months ahead.


OraSure Technologies, Inc. OSUR

We also wanted to remind our readers of another timely alert we entered into the mix in yesterday’s report. OSUR traded in a range from 6.40 to 7.59, a respectable 19% increase.

Today the stock has surpassed that high in the premarket, running as high as 8.00, which extends the total overnight gain we’ve seen so far to 25% We’re going be watching for OSUR to possibly continue this run on the heel of some joint press with Walgreens this morning.


Potential Momentum Plays

Here we’ve got a couple of ‘momo-plays’ (one of which with a fresh PR out this morning) that we’re going to be keeping an eye on today:

Enviro-Serv, Inc. EVSV

NOHO, Inc. DRNK
