The Week’s Biggest Winner & Loser

Carnival Cruise Lines (CCL)
Carnival Cruise Lines (CCL) got shipwrecked along with many of the other recovery plays following ever-increasing COVID cases and stimulus gridlock in Congress. CCL dropped -9.08% this week, losing all of its winnings from last week and then some, to earn itself notoriety as the Week’s Biggest Loser.

Recovery Speculation Basket
Airlines ETF
JETS
Carnival Cruise
CCLWhat is the Recovery Speculation Basket?
The Recovery Speculation Basket (“Recovery Spec”) represents stocks that will thrive if vaccines are released quickly and we return to normal but have the likelihood of collapsing if more lockdowns occur. These positions are too speculative to have their own allocation and share a single allocation.
Currently, my Recovery Spec stocks are as follows: the Airlines Exchange Traded Fund (JETS) and Carnival Cruise Lines (CCL). They are listed as a single allocation in the portfolio breakdown chart each week.
This Week’s Moves
General Electric (GE): Profit-Taking
General Electric (GE) continued its upward climb this week, triggering a sell order on Friday which took profits on some shares at $11.22. The sale locked in +102.53% in gains on a few of the shares I bought for $5.54 on May 13, and also lowered my per-share cost -9.46% from $5.60 to $5.07.
From here, I’m eyeing my next sale to take the remainder of my capital and some profits out of the position as it nears $13.00. I’ve decided to hold off adding back to the position since my per-share cost is now below GE’s all-time low.
GE closed the week at $11.16, down -0.53% from where I sold Friday.
Tradeweb Markets (TW): Profit-Taking
When Tradeweb Markets (TW) started to reach the $65 mark, a past point of resistance, on Friday, I decided it was time to take profits, selling a few of my shares at $64.85. The sale locked in +25.56% in gains on shares I bought back on August 10 for $51.65 and lowered my per-share cost -67.16% from $21.47 to $7.05.
My next sell target is around $75.00 – a point predicted by inverse Fibonacci Retracement – where I will pull out my remaining capital and some profits before letting the rest of the position ride. My next buy target is around $50.00, a past point of strong support.
TW closed the week at $64.86, basically unchanged from where I sold Friday.
