Stay with OPK (Long) this week. Still hold shares in port, and believe it will continue to grow.

Long HZO (Marinemax Inc. - Specialty Retail) From the revised earnings beat MRQ with recent upward estimate revisions screen. Same pick as last week the daily and weekly charts do not look overbought and the momentum looks good on both charts. stockcharts.com/h-sc/ui?s=HZO&p=W&b=5&g=0&id=p32854285422 |

SCTY, short....Solar City....the rumor last week that Musk was taking it private jumped it up...now let's see if it drops back again. It has dropped a bit in the "after hours".

If oil and the metals have truly bottomed, I guess I will have to go with FCX this week.
Freeport McMoran Inc.
Does not have to with oil, but iif gold and copper have bottomed, people will start coming back into the miners.
FCX long.
X is up another 3% in early trading, but I would think they have to sell off this week. Probably should have shorted it.......

First? Probably will not last long, as I am expecting a market retreat most any day. Sold 1k and bought some dividend stocks.
ADD: Well. turned out it was timely action yesterday.....bad day today for longs.

Bet I'll be back there after today! Because I thought I put some good mental thought behind my pick this week, and as usual, it's a swift kick in the gut. |

A "yo-yo" day again. Up-down-up-down...it's getting "testy" on the scale of bear/bull. One of these days a real significant move will be made. Hope it will be "positive" move.
