This Week’s Moves
Getting Closer to the Action…
Don’t let appearances deceive you – even though the market appeared to just flip-flop from last week’s bearish action to this week’s bullish action, some of the positions in the Speculation in Play portfolio are actually approaching points where it might be time to… well… take action.
A few of the positions are approaching key profit-taking targets while others are approaching buying targets. This is one of those strange times in the markets where it’s a stockpicker’s game.
You need to develop a plan for each of your positions and stick with it, even if it means some weeks you’ll be both adding to positions and taking profits in the same week.
