I have nothing that I feel good about.
Was going to short CLVS, JUST BECAUSE.....
Maybe go long an oil?
Weight Watchers is in the dog house and might beat earnings, but maybe they disappoint and fall..... About $5.50 off an all time low, trading in mid $10 range, and might wind up way down.
Kroger is up on early trading so that is out.....
Leaves me BJ, BJ Whoolesale Club Holdings Inc. They have beat the last seven qtrs, and I hope they go for another, but just like Vegas, they may bust out on the Crap table.....
BJ, long

kadee77, I do not know what happened with ModE98. I think when I moved last week's thread to the archives I must have selected this thread as well. Otherwise, I don't know why it would have been moved.

Considering SQ was up 24% on Friday, I was surprised it was up today.

I watch them. I also use to post twice monthly stock index numbers, on another thread and various commodities but have failed for over a year now. I should update it but it would take so long to do it, and life is short  I might just post quarterly totals to catch up if I ever get the initative.  |
