Kroger, KR, long.
I have not been able to get a feel on the markets all fall. Stocks that I think will go up, go down.
Stocks that should fall go up.
ULTA is a great example. They report this week, but I know they could go either way.
So this week my pick is sort of a safe pick, but could still fall.
KR, long

For all of you who do all the nuts/bolts on different companies.....I made this pick this week ONLY because of the climate conference that was held in Paris this week.
And it could still be in the basement by the end of the week! |
