The Week’s Biggest Winner & Loser

JP Morgan (JPM)

It’s a market only the financials could love, and, boy, did they ever. In a week of mostly red, JP Morgan squeaked out a +1.72% gain to earn itself the spot of The Week’s Biggest Winner.

Tesla (TSLA)

With concerns that CEO Elon Musk might be losing it (again) combined with lofty valuations and a market that hates overvalued growth stocks, Tesla (TSLA) took a dump this week, crashing -14.97% and earning itself the spot of The Week’s Biggest Loser.

This Week’s Moves

Skyworks Solutions (SWKS): Added to Position

Skyworks Solutions (SWKS) got slammed along with the rest of the technology this week, triggering a buy order of mine which filled on Tuesday at $160.98, down -21.09% off its $204.00 all-time high and locking in +3.82% of profits on shares I sold back on January 20 for $167.37.

Tuesday’s order raised my per-share cost +4.87% from $79.04 to $82.89, however, that’s still -27.03% from my initial buy on January 31, 2020 at $113.60. From here, my next buy target is $136.65, slightly above a past point of support.

The long-term potential for this company is so great that I do not currently have sell targets for the position until it outgrows the target allocation for the portfolio.

SWKS closed the week at $165.45, up +2.78% from where I added Tuesday.

Square (SQ): Added to Position

While much of the market bounced on Thursday, Square (SQ) continued to see weakness, triggering a buy order I had in place at $198.20. The order replaces shares I sold on April 9, 2021 for $262.53, locking in a -24.50% discount.

From here, I have a buy price target to add more to the position at $173.50 and a sell target around its last high of $278.

SQ closed the week at $207.85, up +4.87% from where I added Thursday.

Take Two Interactive (TTWO): Added to Position

Take Two Interactive (TTWO) got hit hard on Wednesday, dropping to my buy target with an order that filled at $162.96. Wednesday’s buy actually put real capital back into the position, giving me a per-share cost of $6.30. From here, my next buy target is $137.90 and I have no sell targets at the moment.

TTWO closed the week at $166.99, up +2.47% from where I added.
