The last few years have been great to me, as i was able to clobber the S&P500 many times in returns. But of course, you can't make a living trading the markets if you don't make great great returns. I'll try to give my readers trades that i think will make them money. However, you need to have money management skills, in order not to lose everything on a greedy or stupid trade. I may or may not already be in the trades i recommend. I may or may not trade the stocks i recommend. Due diligence is required on your part and the usual disclaimer that i am not responsible for your losses always apply. I have no affiliations with any broker/dealer and all posts are for educational purposes only.

MED for the diabetic!

MED closed @ 13.05

It's one of those companies like NTRI that sells prepared food for big (aka Fat) people. I don't think MED is as good a company as NTRI. Look at their offerings and you'll see NTRI offers more tasty foods. However, MED claims that their products help diabetics get off insulin. There's been several studies already done and it seems to support MED's claims. If the studies support this, then doctors are more likely going to recommend MED diet products to their patients. I am, however, doubtful that doctors will recommend MED over pharmaceutical drugs. (Why would anyone in their right mind want to destroy their business? What? No more diabetic patients?) Doctors prescribe drugs! When they recommend a drug to a patient, they tend to receive some incentives from the drug companies. When a diabetic patient is completely cured, that means less frequent visits to a doctor's office! Sounds like i'm trying to stir up a conspiracy theory? Okie-dokie. Believe what you will.

Anyhow, their revenues and earnings are growing fast, but not as fast as NTRI.

A money manager thinks that MED could be a 3-10 bagger from here.


Short/Intermediate/Longer term play.

MED broke thru the all-important 200dayMA at 12 today on high volume. Should continue to go higher.

Great news for ZVUE. Its up in pre market. What do you see it going up to beanie1111 today.?

Not sure if these threats against the markets will impact the stock today, but NYX and NDAQ are both down 1 dollar in pre-market trading. Maybe it's just a scam by JPMorgan to try to bring the stock price down again!

Pamfla,

I definitely don't want to be anyone's leader...too much pressure! I'm stressed enough as it is! :)

MRVL is a good company, I wouldn't even look at it on a day-to-day basis.....it's only down 26 cents.

Beanie is the leader here! Personally, I'm sitting today out on the sidelines. I sold off some ZVUE for a small profit and now only have a small position....that's about it.....

XNN: Don't be fearful. Earnings conference is Dec 14. So they will keep this stock in play the next 2 weeks. It's going higher from here. I have no doubts.

Hey Beanie...might it be wise to buy xnn once it passes through 3.60 (yesterdays high)or does it looks just too good at this price?....Brett

beanie

when would you sell xnn?? would you sell it before earnings or after? I bought it yesterday at $2.60

thank you

XNN: obviously short term overbought. Today is consolidation day but i don't think it will go down that much. The 2.80 area should hold.

anonymous,

I say you hold it thru earnings.
