The Week’s Biggest Winner & Loser

Twilio (TWLO)

Cloud data provider, Twilio (TWLO), nearly flew into the clouds this week, rocketing +17.69% on the back of a surprisingly good quarter. As a result Twilio floats into the top spot this week as the Week’s Biggest Winner.

Skyworks Solutions (SWKS)

The markets fell out of love with semiconductors this week in light of inflation data that could indicate a future weakness in demand. As a result, Skyworks Solutions (SWKS) dipped -3.14% on the week and that loss was enough to land it in the spot of the Week’s Biggest Loser.

This Week’s Moves

Roblox (RBLX): Profit-Taking

Roblox (RBLX) roared higher on Wednesday following a blowout earnings report. The stock shot more than +20% in morning trading, triggering my next sell order which filled at $45.33, locking in an astounding +54.55% in gains on shares I bought for $29.33 just two months ago on December 15, 2022.

While the sale only lowered my per-share cost -$0.02 from $45.07 to $45.05, it served the more important purpose of releasing capital for use at lower levels should RBLX sell off once more. From here, my next sell target is $49.55, below a key point of resistance, and my next buy target is $27.95, above a key point of past support.

RBLX closed the week at $40.88, down -9.82% from where I took profits Wednesday.
