Probably a bad pick this week, but I am going with Alcoa. AA, long. It has been on an uptrend and I think it might continue this week on the upward trend as Wall Street seems to be adding metal manufacturers to their portfolios right now. AA long. |

What a wild ride this week! Tomorrow will be a surprise if still up there.
UPDATE: Friday...... Well, what happened, TPI up 12 cents. Wonder if something is brewing. 
No news. Do not expect earnings report until at least mid-February.
