Gee, I am a bit surprised at the lackluster moves in the aftermath of MSFT’s superduper take off this week, which actually started it’s breakout last Friday from the price consolidation pivot point, then gained “Gold Rush Fever” momentum this past Wednesday. It must have been JUL 22 After Market Earnings Report driven.
HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND! PEACE. RICH

GOING INTO EXPIRATION FRIDAY (JUL) MARKET PERFORMANCE HAS BEEN IN THE GREEN TODAY…

LONG POSITIONS: BWP (EARNINGS 8/1 WITH POTENTIAL TO HIT 22.57); ATML (GOOD STATS THOUGH TRAILING THE S&P 500); BBD (FORECAST PRICE WILL SET A NEW HIGH).
SHORT POSITIONS: BX IS NOW PUSHING FOR A NEW 52 WK HIGH – EVENT STRATEGY (EARNINGS UP +.85 7/17 WITH DIVIDEND PAYOUT $0.55 ON 7/24) BX HAS A NICE $1.50 POTENTIAL DROP TO MAKE IT VIABLE PUT OPTION BUY.
