Blue Horseshoe Stocks: RSH Updates & More

RadioShack Corp. RSH

RSH found new highs early in the session after we tagged it in yesterday morning’s extended watchlist. Word got around that RSH was reportedly offered a $500M bankruptcy loan, and it sent the stock quickly from a low of .43 to .55 which registers as a 28% intraday rip.

That marks the second time in the past several months that we caught RSH coming off of a new 52-week low and were afforded a rapid gain opportunity as a result. The last time was back in August when we tracked the play from its then annual low of .55 all the way up to the 1.60-area.

As of the end of 2014, the company was only short roughly $40M of the $100M in cash/credit needed to avoid having its long-term finance nixed, so this loan could certainly alter circumstances. We’ll be paying close attention for updates on whether the terms will be accepted by RSH.

Top Shelf Brands Holdings, Inc. DKTS

We wanted to do a quick update on DKTS this morning; the company came with some late morning news yesterday regarding the updated status of its recently announced teaming with Big Tent Media. Apparently Big Tent has already found a suitable partnership for DKTS with regard to the public release of its upcoming beverage line; Konvict Records, which was co-founded by well-known R&B singer Akon.

The marketing power of celebrity endorsement has been demonstrated time and time again, particularly in the premium spirits industry. Countless celebrities have successfully launched branded beverages, and DKTS hopes to capture the same sort of recognition for its brands. It’s a story to which we are definitely interested in staying closely tuned.

HOUSTON, Jan. 13, 2015 /PRNewswire/ — Alonzo Pierce, CEO of Top Shelf Brands Holdings, Inc.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: FRO Review & More

Frontline Ltd. FRO

FRO has definitely turned out to be one of our biggest success stories of the past several weeks. Just to refresh people’s memories, we caught this play coming off of some of its lowest prices of the year back on December 1st. Our observed low on FRO was 1.33 at that time, and in two huge upward moves the stock has traversed quite a bit of territory since then.

Yesterday FRO achieved a high of 5.05, which marks a total increase of 280% in just under six weeks! As we did after the initial push, we could now see a possible dip-and-rip scenario. We’ll remain interested provided the stock maintains support at or above the $3-area on the pullback.

As we can see on the chart above, there is a potential Golden Cross in the making, and with tens of millions of barrels of crude to be held on tankers over the next few months given the current oil landscape, this may not be the last time we point to big moves from FRO.

BARCHART.COM is currently giving FRO a “100% Buy” rating.

Twitter, Inc. TWTR – Options

Following up on one of the options ideas we were mulling over on TWTR last week; the TWTR February $40 Calls. When we first mentioned them last Wednesday (Saw a low of 2.15), we mentioned that they “could be in line for significant gains if TWTR continues to recover off of recent lows” and we did in fact see some substantial movement.

Those Feb. $40’s hit a high of 3.70 during the day yesterday, for an overall increase of 72% in a span of just four sessions! Even further gains could be forthcoming provided TWTR continues the current trend, so we’ll want to reserve it a slot on our watchlist as we head into mid-week.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: RSH Update & More

Radio Shack Corp. RSH

RSH has made regular appearances in our reports over the past couple of months, starting in the beginning of August, when we caught the stock off of its 52-week low of .55.

Following a major run-up to the 1.60-range on August 29th, the stock has been under a general consolidation amid bankruptcy rumors. This week, the company was hinting at possible refinancing deal that would allow them to avoid that situation for the time being, and this morning, that deal was confirmed.

As a result, the stock is up significantly today, having traded as high 1.65 in the premarket. We’re going to want to see support hold at previous resistance points at 1.15 and 1.30. Already, at today’s early highs, we’re seeing more than a 100% increase off of the lows we observed following our most recent RSH alert (.80)

Rockwell Medical, Inc. RMTI

RMTI is another morning gapper that we’re going to place on watch today. With the stock coming off of a recent bottom, it’s going to be interesting to see how today’s development affects its price action.

The company put out a hefty PR this morning regarding a commercialization/distribution deal with Baxter Healthcare (BAX):

WIXOM, Mich., Oct. 3, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Rockwell Medical, Inc. (RMTI), a fully-integrated biopharmaceutical company targeting end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) with innovative products and services for the treatment of iron replacement, secondary hyperparathyroidism and hemodialysis, announced today that it has signed an exclusive agreement with Baxter Healthcare Corporation, a subsidiary of Baxter International Inc. (BAX), to commercialize Rockwell’s hemodialysis concentrate product line in the U.S. and in select overseas markets.>> VIEW PR

BioCryst Pharmaceuticals, Inc. BCRX

BCRX appeared on Wednesday in our extended watchlist, and what has followed has been two fruitful sessions in a row. From a low of 9.89 on Wednesday, we witnessed as the stock bulled its way into yesterday’s close, reaching a daily high of 11.49, a solid 16% overnight increase.

Inovio Pharmaceuticals, Inc. INO

Speaking of pharma plays, INO, a stock that has appeared several times in our reports recently, is also making moves concurrently with the present concern over the Ebola virus outbreak. The company actually has a Ebola vaccine with which they’ve reported success in treating animals with the deadly virus. Anything to do with Ebola is getting a lot of attention at present, and INO is no exception.

Side Note:

Jobs numbers were out this morning, to a positive reception. We will subsequently be looking for dip-and-rip opportunities with regard to options trading. Friday is characteristically a day when premiums start to come down as a result of time decay, with expirations looming. We’re looking at potential opportunities trading Calls in plays like SPY, AA, ISRG, & GPRO.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: JDST, CNET, TTMI & More

Direxion Daily Jr Gld Mnrs Bear 3X ETF (JDST)

JDST, for those of you who may not be familiar, is a bear index for gold, which has been taking a pounding over the past couple of months, as world economies have seen a general pickup.

Many analysts are predicting a protracted bearish run from the precious metal, for instance Goldman Sachs has forecast gold to decline to $1,050 an ounce this year. Still others believe a trip to sub-$1000/oz prices is in the cards.

Should gold continue its downtrend, JDST is one way to leverage against that, so we’re going to have this index on our radar from this point forward. It could stand to see further increases while investors are turning to other classes of assets which are currently boasting healthier returns.

TTM Technologies, Inc. TTMI

TTMI is hitting our scanners this morning as a potential bottom play. The stock made a run toward the end of Thursday’s session, and spent the day Friday under general consolidation where it came down to bounce off of support at 7.28 in the last hour of trading.

We’ll be keeping an eye in the activity here today, on the heels of this morning’s news of an acquisition that will make the company one of the world’s leading manufacturers of printed circuit boards.

COSTA MESA, Calif. and ST. LOUIS, Sept. 22, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — TTM Technologies, Inc. (TTMI) (“TTM”) and Viasystems Group, Inc. (VIAS) (“Viasystems”) today announced the execution of a definitive agreement under which TTM will acquire all outstanding shares of Viasystems >>> FULL PR

ChinaNet Online Holdings, Inc. CNET

Another stock that popped up during this morning’s scan falls more under the category of a momentum play; CNET made a big move on Friday, and from the looks of things we should be on the lookout for some of that activity to carry over into this week. The stock is presently gapping up in the premarket, and as always when we see this scenario, we are open to the possibility of seeing a potential dip-and-rip on the chart.

The company also announced today that it had won recognition at yesterday’s Chinese eCommerce Industry Gateway Conference in Beijing:

BEIJING, Sept. 22, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — ChinaNet Online Holdings, Inc. (CNET) (“ChinaNet” or the “Company”), a leading B2B (business to business) Internet technology company providing online-to-offline (O2O) sales channel expansion services for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and entrepreneurial management and networking services for entrepreneurs in the People’s Republic of China, announced today that the company won the Best Company in Chinese Entrepreneurial SME Business Development Marketing at the 2014 Chinese e-Commerce Industry Gateway Conference. >>> FULL PR

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: APPG, RSH & OTIV Updates

Apptigo International, Inc. APPG

Our readers may recall that we tagged APPG as a potential bottom-play in Friday’s premarket report, as the stock was coming off its 52-week lows a couple of sessions prior.

We mentioned that we liked APPG “provided it can hold support above .365 in order to break the pattern of its recent downtrend”, and it did in fact maintain support above that level. We saw a daily range from .37-.43 which is equal to a 16% move, and the stock closed just a penny below its high-of-day.

We’ll be monitoring APPG as we kick off a new trading week, and looking for the stock to register higher lows and higher highs to confirm a sustained uptrend.

RadioShack Corp. RSH

Despite recent uncertainty caused by talk of possible bankruptcy proceedings, RSH did well on Friday. We’ve been tracking the stock heavily since the beginning of August, where we caught it at its 52-week low of .55.

Following a gradual incline to a high of 1.77, the stock has been under recent consolidation, and toward the end of last week we were looking for it to maintain support above its then-50DMA of .83, and it did just that.

On Friday it traded in a daily range from .86-1.00 (+16%), and closed at .91. Like the previously mentioned stock we’ll need to see RSH record higher lows and higher highs, and test its next key areas of resistance at 1.15 and 1.30.

It should go without saying that we’ll also want to keep our ear to the tracks for updates on RSH’s tenuous financial situation.

On Track Innovations Ltd. OTIV

OTIV made an appearance in Thursday’s newsletter on our extended watchlist. We saw the stock touch a low of 3.12 that morning, and then begin a gradual ascent spanning through Friday’s session as it went on to a subsequent high of 3.94 (+26%).

It’s going to remain high on watchlist today, as we’ve already seen trades in the premarket going off as high as 4.39. At that level, our total possible gain on this stock over the course of just a few sessions is expanded to 41%
