there are a lot of stocks looking good right now. the junior uraniums look good (URNJ), the retails look good (KLIC, HIBB), and banking looks good (Caxia), and software looks good (MSFT, CA:CSU). the base metals still look shitty, as do precious metals. but i am going to skip all of those and go with a special situation.

with Musk's rocket going down in flames, i am going for Virgin Galactic (SPCE), long.

[clarkrl2]

The benchmark has the early lead in this week's holiday shortened race. clarkrl2 is second and djAdvocate third. Less than 2% separates the field.

this will be interesting. SPCE cut it's loss in half on Friday.
not sure if that gets me into 3rd or not.

edit: all five of the stocks mentioned in my OP did better than SPCE.
HIBB was the best, clocking in a +11% gain.
retail was great this week.
