Blue Horseshoe Stocks: NKE Options & More

Nike, Inc. NKE 

We’re seeing a possible opportunity for NKE to close out the week today, despite the continued bearish activity for the markets at large. Like a lot of stocks, NKE is at its lowest prices in quite some time; in this case, seven months. But we are seeing the makings of a potential quick-strike play here, and we’d like to signal some options ideas to coincide with the present situation.

We;re going to focus in on the NKE Weekly $73-74 Calls after the company logged a beat on both earnings and revenues in its post-market release yesterday. Additionally the company provided stout guidance, so if anything has a chance to buck the trend and put forth a bullish session today, it would be Nike.


New Age Beverages, Inc. NBEV

Speaking of bucking the trend, NBEV, another anomalous performer that we’ve been tracking for quite some time has been flying in the face of current market sentiment for six weeks now.

When we high;lighted this stock on the morning of November 15th, it was trading for as little as 3.30, and after weeks of bullish sentiment, the stock has reached new highs at 6.90, which accounts for a move of 109%

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: SAGD Review & More

South American Gold Corp. SAGD
(soon to be Sativa Growth International)

On the morning of last Thursday the 21st, we signaled our interest in tracking SAGD, and at the time the stock was trading as low as .0135. In the week of trading which has followed, the stock has made a very nice move.

Yesterday, SAGD hit a new high of .0364 which represents a one-week upswing of 170% and continues our recent impressive trend of identifying not only hot options plays, but scoring big with stocks as well.

We should also mention that the company announced its plans to change its name and official focus to reflect the work it has been doing to move toward the cannabis space.(>>Read PR) It’s one of our favorite OTC market sectors, and we’ll be tracking SAGD as part of it moving forward.
