Pondering Signet Jewelers (SIG) as a Short
|
|
|
Since I missed Zale's (ZLC) journey to sub $1-ish [Jan 23: Where You Won't Shop in 2009], I am pondering Signet Jewelers (SIG) as a proxy. Very weird action today - it is up 14% based on a cost cutting report that happened yesterday - but the report happened in the morning. So the stock did not react yesterday but reacted today. (I assume short covering today) <>Signet Jewelers (SIG.L), the Anglo-American jewellery retailer, reported on Thursday a sharp fall in fourth-quarter underlying sales and said it would outline plans to cut costs and generate more cash in March.<>The 1,959-store group, >>...

Bookkeeping: Selling some American Science & Engineering (ASEI) on Fantastic Earnings
|
|
|
I am cutting American Science & Engineering (ASEI) from a 2.0% stake to 1.2% on some fantastic earnings. This stock has been asleep of late as people run into commodities/tech/China. Just goes to show, this market is about what the hot thesis is not what companies are executing. The stock is up 8% this morning and hitting recent highs in the $82s; I'm selling in the mid $82s and looking to rebuy lower. If the stock breaks north of $84, I'll pay up to ride the next leg up as this would be a new high.
Love the gross margin expansion - that's money in the bank. <><>The Company reported <>record revenu>>>...

Bookkeeping: Closing Geron (GERN) and Amazon.com (AMZN) Shorts
|
|
|
I have to give these two stocks credit; they have held up well - even in today's mess of a tape. It appears it's going to take some serious market weakness to see more of a downfall. These are "technical scalps" (short term in and out trades) and one worked out ok - Geron (GERN) and the other did not - Amazon.com (AMZN). Net of the two I lost more in Amazon than I won in Geron but it's no major damage. (the NASDAQ has been a favorite of the hedge funds the past 6-7 sessions)
[Feb 4: Short Amazon.com] Amazon started in $62.60s [Jan 30: Short Geron] Geron started in $7.80s
