Long AMCX (AMC Networks - Media) From the earnings beat MRQ with recent upward estimate revisions screen. My pick from the last several weeks was entering the overbought territory. AMCX doesn't have the prettiest chart but the weekly RSI was up and the stochastics indicate improvement so I'll give this a try for at least one week. stockcharts.com/h-sc/ui?s=AMCX&p=W&b=5&g=0&id=p26395937598

Question for anyone: Has anyone heard any news from Uncle this week .... He didn't get an entry in this week..... I've heard that they have had some severe weather... perhaps that's it.
2:20pm Tex.time. Unc., thanks for your reply (message below). This has been a terrible morning for me. Re: the 40 yr. old woman, shot by a Minneapolis Policeman. You probably remember, I had a one man office in Msp. for 2.5 years., designed 7 schools there, etc., etc. Even picked up by a helicopter (practice) from a city lake. MEMORIES. We're going to hear lots of news re: the shooting last nite.

clarkrl2 jumps out to a somewhat tentative lead as the field seems to be feeling each other out. architecto25 is second and tyfighter3 for third. I went ahead and included uncle23's pick as a mulligan and will use tomorrow's open. F opened at $11.70 and closed at 11.74 today so the pick shouldn't be impacted too much by today's move. This is a friendly game and I'm sure we are all overjoyed that POTW hall of famer uncle23 is safe and sound.

Clark, you're amazing.. thanks... I misunderstood Uncle, & I just assumed the symbol would be FORD. Nope, that's another company. Handbags, etc. Ford (F) has a really nice graph. ......& it's a friendly game; & Unc. and I probably have been emailing somewhere about 10 years... wild guess ? Arch

Clark, Thanks, I've been busy retiring. Sold my 3 business, my house, bought a house in sunny Fl, getting everything moved over down here is HARD WORK. Did some rock work around the house and Now my wife wants to Paint a House that I thought was painted alright when we bought it. What Was I Thinking. LOL So things are slowly getting back to normal, I've been able to play golf 2 or 3 times a week, met some nice people from all over the US. I think I'm going to like this. Now I'm back to keep you guys in line. lol

Ty, sure hope it isn't a waterfront property! But congrats on the retirement. You should look up Mod down there!
Looks like I have the bottom tied up for the week!

and Ty, I spent 6 months of my life (first months of air force time) at Marianna, FL., at that time there was a Graham Air Base ..... & couple trips to Largo, FL. (close to Tampa); had an aunt living there ...... & then to top it all off, several air force stop-overs (C-119's) at Homestead AFB, Miami .... to and from Puerto Rico and to Panama. MEMORIES. Never there in any snow storms like Minneapolis.... LOL. Enjoy the golf weather. Arch.

Kadee, .... as my horse (OSUR) was running slow, he looked back and said: "you do know that you put the wrong saddle blanket on me, don't you?" ...... "should have been a different symbol"....... LOL
