Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Mid-Week Review

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

Yesterday marked the third consecutive day that we had been tracking the JDST ETF, and the third consecutive session that we witnessed a northerly move. From an early low of 14.07, it would go on to attain a daily high of 17.42 on volume that exceeded the 3-month average by nearly 2M shares. That worked out to a solid intraday run of 24%

As measured from the low we observed following our initial alert on Friday morning (11.40) to yesterday’s peak PPS, the JDST has risen 53% overall.

As we’ve previously mentioned, due to the nature of the fund, extended success for the JDST is contingent upon continued hardship for gold, which continued to flirt with its 3-month lows yesterday.

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: FRO, OPK, WLGC & More

Frontline, Ltd. FRO

At the beginning of this month when we first began looking at FRO, the stock was trading at a low of 1.33. It took barely a week for the stock to start inching its way up, and it has continued to do so up to the present.

By the time we re-flagged it in Friday’s morning report, it had already cracked the $2.00-mark, and we did mention that the level of momentum was primed to allow for further opportunities.

This morning FRO continues to push the envelope, setting a new high in premarket trading action. This morning’s top figure of 2.64 puts us just slightly short of double-bagger status, having shown us an increase of 98% from the lows we observed the week before last.

It can be argued that the bolstering of activity seen on FRO (and other shipping plays) is due to the continuing fall of oil prices which translates to savings at the pump.


Opko Health, Inc. OPK

OPK is catching our attention in the premarket as well, as a result of an agreement announced this morning with pharma-giant Pfizer to develop and commercialize one of Opko’s highly promising products which combats Growth Hormone deficiency. Peruse the following PR to find out more; the development certainly lands OPK a spot on our watchlist to kick off the week.

In instances like these where a play is sent through the roof on substantial news, we look for the resulting profit-taking to pull the stock back, where we wait to take advantage of a possible dip-and-rip scenario.

OPKO Health, Inc. (OPK) and Pfizer Inc. (PFE) announced today that they have entered into a worldwide agreement for the development and commercialization of OPKO’s long-acting hGH-CTP for the treatment of growth hormone deficiency (GHD)… hGH-CTP has the potential to reduce the required dosing frequency of human growth hormone to a single weekly injection from the current standard of one injection per day. >> FULL PR


WordLogic Corp. WLGC

Speaking of significant news, WLGC forces its way into our vernacular this morning on the heels of the announcement that the company will be teaming up with energy-leviathan General Electric (GE) in order to “monetize specific patented intellectual property in General Electric’s portfolio.”

With such a high-profile bedfellow, WLGC will instantly gain new recognition, and it will be very interesting to see how that translates to the chart.
