This Week’s Moves
Canadian Palladium (DCNNF): Added to Position
With the rest of the commodities sector selling off, it only makes sense that we’d see a selloff in the super-speculative penny-stock commodities, and, on Tuesday, a buy order I had in place triggered at $0.08 (definitely make sure to use limit orders with these crazy lottery tickets – I was filled at a significant margin below my actual target).
The order lowered my per-share cost -11.10% from $0.1000 to $0.0889. From here, my next buy target is around $0.0510, a past point of support and I currently have no sell targets for this position, yet.
DCNNF closed the week at $0.0800, unchanged from where I added Tuesday.
Las Vegas Sands (LVS): Added to Position
The negative delta variant news caused Las Vegas Sands (LVS) to continue to sell off this week, triggering my next buy order which filled at $38.82 on Tuesday. On Thursday, continued selling pressure pushed LVS through my next buy target which filled at $36.64.
The combined buys averaged to $37.73/shr and lowered my per-share cost -4.54% from $40.50 to $38.65. From here, my next buy target is $33.45, slightly above the low of the pandemic selloff in March 2020.
LVS closed the week at $37.55, down -0.48% from my average buy price.
Uranium ETF (URA): Added to Position
Uranium sold off with the rest of the market and commodities, in particular, on Monday, triggering a buy order I had in place at $18.48. The buy replaces some of the shares I sold at $22.71 on June 1, locking in an -18.63% discount and raising my per-share cost $0.79 or 4.9% from $16.11 to $16.90, -5.95% less than my initial buy at $17.97 on February 23.
From here, my next buy target is $16.30 and I have no sell targets for the moment as I wait to see where this crazy commodities market goes next.
URA closed the week at $17.81, down -3.63% from where I added Monday.
