FIVN (long) Five9 Inc.
This stock closed Friday at $7.56
Provides cloud software for contact centers.
52 wk. high/low $9.065/$3.48
Founded Dec. 2001
Hdq. in San Ramon, CA.
630 employees
I'm not shorting something this week because if BigCharts numbers
are correct; this is what they published Friday:
52 wk. highs 13 (NYSE)
52 wk. lows 27
What a change in recent numbers. Bear market over. Who knows.

Kadee, perhaps your stock picking not excellent today; but your radar is perfect ....... according to my
unofficial numbers that I just ran through.
None of us shorted any stock today; but we all should have. But let's wait for Clark's official race results.

Well, my thinking when picking CLNE was that if oil/gas goes up, then so should Clean Energy...but oil turned around...  |

What a disappointing day! BenchMark leading is rather unusual...well, as long as it is not Friday there may be salvation.

kadee, maybe for Monday; but, will it last? This market is a conundrum. Yet we all know bears do not live forever and the bulls will return in time. Forever the optimist!

I just read this on Stockcharts P&F chart.
"An ascending triple top breakout on 29 Jan. 2016"
Yes sir ..... that's very bullish. I think Mod has gotten the bears pinned up again. !!

architecto....the bear may be settled down for the moment....sure hope so. But he did provide me with the opportunity to load up on OPK in the $7's, very near it's all time lows. Now to just ride the market, and if the trend turns positive into mid-year, could turn up a nice profit on sale. Hope I'm not getting too wild and senile at my age, but believe this will be a nice cap gains play.

Congrats to Arch, Uncle & DI! Way to go guys!
Clark, sorry you got my spot on the bottom....mine jumped more today than I thought it would. Hang in there Mod...I don't think you are getting senile, just taking advantage of the sale price!...that's a good thing! |
