INO Update & More

Inovio Pharmaceuticals, Inc. INO 

We signaled INO on Thursday morning, and this week, the stock has enjoyed some really solid activity, which facilitated the chance at a big gain for traders. We have observed a range of 3.83-7.48 in just a couple of sessions. That works out to total potential profit of 95%

It was a buck of the overall trend as many of these pharma plays have been doing through the coronavirus scare currently in progress. While the markets got a momentary boost from the Fed’s surprise rate cut yesterday, it was not long-lived, and the decline for other stocks continued throughout the majority of the session.

This morning, the stock has hit 8.80 in the premarket, extending our observed gain this week to 130%

While world governments rush to contain the spread of the virus, it would not yet be accurate to call it under control. We would expect much more hardship on the day-to-day for stocks before we’re out of the woods. So plays like INO are a welcome respite during this tumultuous time, and we’ll do our best to keep them coming.

Panic Buying/Selling Goes Viral

Co-Diagnostic Inc. CODX – Review

The last time we mentioned CODX in one of our reports was toward the end of last month, and at the time the coronavirus was not inspiring as much fear as it is presently, but the stock had still already begun to trade high volume and edge upward.

Now, with the CDC warning of a potential pandemic, even as some public officials attempt to downplay the significance, fear-buying has driven up stocks like CODX, which happened to be the #2 gainer on the NASDAQ yesterday. It enabled new highs for us, and we’ve now seen CODX run from a low of 1.52 up to 10.89 in just over a month’s time! That’s a fantastic increase of 616%

The stock has broken $14 in the premarket, so our observed range stands to increase significantly today.


Vaxart Inc. VXRT

Speaking of coronavirus plays, we signaled VXRT on January 31st and promptly provided an update this month on the 4th, and it too has enjoyed a fear-powered run up the chart.

Our initially observed low on this play was .956, and as of yesterday’s new high of 1.91 that works out to an upswing of 99% With the stock on the verge of hurtling upward into blue skies, (over $2 in the premarket) we’re going to want to continue to keep an eye peeled for further activity.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: YGYI Update & More

Youngevity International Inc. YGYI

We began tracking YGYI the Thursday before last, on the 4th, and subsequently witnessed a low of 6.00 before the stock began to ascend sharply.

On Friday, despite already having produced significant gain opportunities for us, the YGYI once again made an impressive move, streaking to a new high of 14.40. That works out to an overall move of 140% accompanied by some of the highest volume sessions in the history of the stock.  As YGYI streaks to seven year highs and into the blue sky, we’ll continue to keep tabs on its activity.


Canadian Cannabis Legalization Finally Arrives

We have been proponents of the Canadian cannabis sector for quite a long time, and we have finally reached the moment we’ve been waiting for- the nationwide legalization of recreational marijuana. Originally slated for July, the delays will now finally come to an end, which means the fun is just getting started. Wednesday is the big day.

Here is a list of Canadian cannabis stocks that we’ve tracked in the past to watch in the midst of this very exciting, key moment in Canada’s history, and indeed the history of cannabis itself:

ACBFF, APHQF, ATTBF, CRON, GLDFF, GLNNF, ISOLF, NXTTF, MRRCF, SPRWF, & TWMJF

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: TNDM Recap & More

Tandem Diabetes Corp. TNDM

First up this morning, we want to recap the performance of TNDM, since slating it for observation on April 11th. The following day, the stock found support at 6.62, and hasn’t looked back since.

Yesterday, after what has been a bullish period that has already persisted for weeks on end, the stock hit a new high of 11.30. That works out to an upswing of 71% in just a shade over a month, and the highest PPS the stock has seen for more than eight months. We’re not that far off from seeing TNDM test the highs from its huge run back in August of last year.


Stein Mart, Inc. SMRT

We also would like to backtrack to a call we made even earlier in the year that has made some excellent long term progress. We signaled interest in SMRT back on March 16th, and in these past two months the stock has done little else but continue to bull its way upward.

From the 1.33 low we witnessed shortly after that alert, SMRT has gone on  to reach a high of 3.35. That works out to a gain of 152%



The Home Depot, Inc. HD – Options Idea

HD was already looking a bit top-heavy, and that’s before the company released a an exceedingly disappointing quarterly report.

We’re going to want to track a range of bearish options ideas to correspond with the present situation- the HD Weekly $187.50-182.50 Puts.
