Blue Horseshoe Stocks: BA Update & More

The Boeing Co. BA – Options Update

Our first order of business this morning is to go over the fantastic options idea we formulated on Monday morning, after a massively deadly air disaster involving one of Boeing’s new model Max 8 737’s occurred over the weekend. Our targets were the BA Weekly $375-367.50 Puts, and not only did they all work, but they all exploded for huge multi-bag gains in an incredible 2-day swing of ten-to-twelve baggers!

$375 Puts – Range: 1.07-12.05 – Max Gain: 1026%
$372.50 Puts – Range: 1.00-11.00 – Max Gain: 1000%
$370 Puts – Range: .73-9.94 – Max Gain: 1262%
$367.50 Puts – Range: .72-8.59 – Max Gain: 1093%

We’re going to flip this idea on its head after learning this morning that Boeing stands to make significant gains as a result of the Trump Admin’s $700B+ DoD budget request. We’ll look to the BA Weekly $380-385 Calls.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: APHA, MDCA & More

Aphria, Inc. APHA

Yesterday morning in our premarket report, we said that the unusually high short interest in APHA was one of the factors playing into our decision to designate it as a bottom-watch play. The rebound we were looking for came instantaneously for us with APHA heating up, and the short squeeze was on.

From a low of 3.75, the stock cruised on up to a high of 5.59 for a daily burst amounting to 49% on considerable volume. We’ll be looking for APHA to continue to make up some of the ground it has lost over the past month.



MDC Partners, Inc. MDCA

Another stock we included as a bottom play yesterday, MDCA also experienced a solid performance on the day. It traded from a low of 2.57 on up to 3.29, for a moderate but respectable 28% gain.

It also factored in as the NASDAQ’s fourth largest gainer of the session. The run came to an end right around an area of previous resistance, so we’ll look for it to break that top in the sessions ahead.

Dollar General Corp. DG

We selected a wide range of puts in the DG chain on Tuesday morning, the DG Weekly $109-103 Puts following the company’s earnings release, wherein it lowered its outlook for the year.

MIK Weekly $15 & 17.50 Calls


Aphria, Inc. APHA

We’ve had an eye on Aphria, and indeed the whole Canadian cannabis market, for years.  Having previously been traded under the symbol APHQF on the OTC Markets, the Canadian cannabis company now trades on the NYSE and bills itself as a drug manufacturer in the healthcare industry.

As a result of allegations against the company, the stock has taken a severe beating in recent sessions. We’re going to begin to observe more closely as a potential bottom bounce play in the days and weeks ahead, as it has reached the point of being heavily oversold with a huge short interest. We’ll want to be hanging around when the shorts start to get squeezed.
