Zumiez, Long
Apparel company.
Probably a bad choice this week based on it's chart, but will go long on it this week. Maybe with the month of June ending a chaotic May, the markets will shine this week!
ZUMZ, long.
Clark, fyi, last week's game did not get moved to the" past week's" file.
It was moved to the regular archived thread file.

Congratulations to this week's winners. Yeh, I knew I was in trouble in after hours trading yesterday, then early morning trading down 10% Did not look at the markets the rest of the day. Wife said let's go to the beach. I said, as long as we get back after 4pm, and I have a few Coronas, and you drive home. Turns out, it was a pleasant day........ |
