Sources of information

That should be a continuous quest.
We saw how the YUAN affects chinese stocks earlier in the year and lately we've been looking at spikes from earnings.
Today I found an earnings website that should be part of the routine news absorption ritual pre-market.

Important one coming up next week: Walmart and possibly Disney.


Movement news:
Took a big hit on this one:

BUY TO COVER LYFT
2000 @ 43 = 86,000
LYFT 2000 @ 40.93 = 81,860

LOSS = $ -4,140

* Lesson learned- in a duopoly- the other part of the duopoly gets stronger when its competitor weakens. Here we saw UBER suffer massive loss and investors picked up Lyft at bargain prices.
I got out of that position to take advantage of what is looking to be a GREEN day and took more conservative/long positions in retail which I will try to ride at least until early December:


Moving on to retail, the best analysts seem to believe spending will be up-and so will spending cautiousness, therefore I am looking to go big in discount retailers.

WMT 1300 @ 119.63 earnings NOVEMBER 14th
TGT 810 @ 111.26 earnings NOVEMBER 20
Dollartree (DLTR) 800 @ 113.32 earnings report NOVEMBER 27

and Costco (COST)
will also be getting a look.

Be Beary Weary about Apple.

Scouting shows that earnings at Apple might drop the most since 2001.  There’s a lot of volume with downward motion today... and it is my opinion that it will continue its decline. Short Position added: AAPL 400*246.13= -98,452 Mistake closed : XNET bought 1000 @ 5.86 = $5,860 XNET SOLD 1000 @ 4.85 = $4,850 Loss = $ 1,010 *lesson * don’t buy at the top, this was a possible pump and dump..at least we got out quick.

Added position to BABA

Looks like a bargain to me , BABA has floored this morning in pre-morning trading in the 169’s. Waited until 170 to confirm trend reversal and added 600 shares @ 170 prior to market open.  Later morning news from Vertical Group confirms agreement in trend direction . Recommend holding until at least 180, which seems to be an important resistance point at this time.
