This Week’s Moves
Pinterest (PINS): Profit-Taking
Pinterest (PINS) rose throughout the week, triggering a sell order I had in place on Thursday which filled at $21.79. The sale took +84.04% in profits on some of the shares I purchased on March 16 for $11.84. It also lowered my per-share cost -5.33% from $11.45 to $10.84.
My next sell target for PINS is around $23.50 with my next buy target at $10.25.
PINS closed the week at $22.13, up +1.56% from where I sold Thursday.
Twitter (TWTR): Profit-Taking
When the market rallied Friday, Twitter (TWTR) shot through a sell target of mine where I took profits at $35.92. The sale locked in +48.31% in gains on shares I bought back on March 16 for $24.22.
The sale also served to lower my per-share cost -10.10% from $23.86 to $21.45. My next sell target is around $39.00 and my buy target is around $21.00-$23.00.
TWTR closed the week at $34.87, down -2.92% from where I sold Friday.
Yeti (YETI): Profit-Taking
During Friday’s insane rally following the Better-Than-Feared (BTF) unemployment report, Yeti (YETI) skyrocketed through my next sell price target with an order filling at $36.60.
The sale locked in +43.81% in profits on shares I purchased for $25.45 back on March 9 at the beginning of the selloff and, more importantly, fully removed all capital I had left in the stock, leaving me to play with the house’s money.
My next sell target is near Yeti’s all-time high at $38.50 with my next buy target down around $19.50.
YETI closed the week at $35.82, down -2.13% from where I sold Friday.
