POWL reports 12/6. No inside information, but just by following it for an extended period I suspect they'll crush earnings. If I'm right, then it should take out $105+.

Ask yourself when was the last time you saw a microcap stock that prints money and pays a dividend? I know this one is probably the first for me. Also, look at the major WS players that own a significant interest in this stock. Those players don't back speculative companies that lose money that could tarnish their rep. Even if they don't beat earnings estimates by enoudh, I don't see it getting crushed so I'm not worried at all.
Have yourself a day, POWL.

Regional Banks someone here made a call back in March to buy a couple regional banks (WAL and TFC). First off thanks they've been great buys with dividend kickers.

They've popped on inflation news and also some big names calling a bottom in them. Having said that TFC has been lacking any real movement. WAL has seemed to bounce quite a bit more. Perhaps keep WAL and sell off TFC?


Here's what I'm doing with mine. I'm not selling my TFC due to it's great dividend and I have those shares in a DRIP. I'm also only 4 months away from my profit going from a short term to a long term capital gains so selling now is dumb. I'll just collect another dividend payment buying more shares. If the FED is likely done, then look for the regionals to do quite well. Hell, TFC was $70/shr 2 years ago, so I see an easy double with minimal risk that pays me a nice divy to wait.

Now, I have been swing trading WAL because it's volatile especially for a bank stock and it's dividend is lower than TFC.

TL;dr version:

I'm holding my TFC and swing trading WAL for quick hit profits.

Yup, I bought it 10/19 @ $76/shr and will hold through earnings.

ETA: I'm loving my SMCI moonshot on heavy volume today too.

Here we go. Here are my top 16 stocks for the year. The code spits out the top 20, but I removed 4 because of huge gap ups that skewed the result.




Here we have the number of stocks trading above the 120 EMA for the past 100 days. Sure looks like a leg down is coming based on how 2022 went.



Weekly Plays:
PSN. Target Price =~50 for +12%


RYTM: Shows up in my top 16 chart. Looks like it's bouncing off lows. Targeting ~$33 for +17%


For those natural gas lovers, here's 25 years of monthly performance broken out by monthly averages. Lesson here is to buy in at the end of January, sell in Sept?.





I bought a couple shares of rytm this morning

There's your $33 on rytm, pjf

I've calmed down on F16 and have successfully avoided a perma. It would either be embarrassing or legendary if Prog was perma'd on the freaking stock trading thread on B&I.

That said, it would be damn funny if that's how I was taken out.

Prog -- I always appreciate your comments/guidance/feedback! WAL is more volatile, but it has performed much better than TFC over the last 8 months since 1st purchase. So you're thinking TFC is "less risk" than WAL in the short-mid term to hold?

And YES to SMCI and POWL!

Yes it has and I don't know what your objectives are for those 2. If you're looking to trade them then WAL is the one, but it you want less volatility (up and down) then TFC with it's dividend in a drip at a nice interest rate is the way to go.

Personally, I don't think your risk to get hurt is high in either one, it just comes down to your tolerance for volatility. If you choose WAL (it's looking like it might breakout now), just don't get emotional and sell it at a loss because the negative clouds are disappearing.

It's hard for me give advice on what others should do because I'm hyper-aggressive and I'd feel bad if someone here blew up their account because they had trust in me. I hope that kinda makes sense.

For all the WWR fans. The 10Q dropped and announced 33% increase in production for phase 1. Also, the are still working with SK On as part of its formal qualification process.

Additionally, Wes****er has signed general terms and conditions for a supply agreement with a North American automobile manufacturing company and is negotiating a possible offtake agreement with this company for potentially up to all of Wes****er's Phase I and Phase II production capacity.

Still in talks for financing, so who knows if it will ever happen or will even be favorable.

They are still selling shares under the Lincoln park deal.

It's either going to be Ramen noodles or the finest sushi/steak with this one.

These 2 snippets won't give you the warm & fuzzies.

"Reducing the level of construction activity until financing is secured is expected to impact the overall construction schedule of Phase I of the Kellyton Plant. Wes****er expects to provide an update to investors regarding the construction timeline of the Kellyton Plant when, and if, the requisite financing is secured."

"As of September 30, 2023, Wes****er had a cash balance of $11.7 million and has incurred approximately $116.7 million since beginning construction of the Kellyton Plant."

strong words here. "when, and if" clearly means >50% chance of event occurring.

had they used "if, and when", I would be selling immediately.

TNA still on its tear as the breadth of the rally widens.

Just the moment I'd been waiting so long for. Glad I didn't lose hope. Finally paying off. About to hit my first profit limit.

I know it's anecdotal, but I know when I visit one of our warehouses and talk to some lower-middle class workers, they're struggling. Hard. I don't think the average consumer is healthy.

I think upper middle class consumers are still spending like crazy, they're just saving less (and middle class is saving nothing)

100% correct. Rich just aren't getting that much richer but middle class and lower class are taking it in the ass. Our delinquencies and evictions on lower class rentals are through the roof and have been for about 3-4 months. These are your lower wage jobs. People paying half rent and trying to get put on payment plans to avoid being out on the street. We obviously work with them to a certain point because we don't want to put someone out on the street if we can avoid it.

Just started a position in PXD.
- Exxon purchase
- 6% div
- oil weakness is buying opp
- chance that XOM will have to sweeten the deal with some cash on top of the XOM share conversion. This is due to weakness of both stocks since acquisition date.

I'm pretty skeptical of your last point.

weakening market gives more leverage to purchaser than target.

Typically I'd agree with you but it's not a hostile takeover. PXD balance sheet is stellar. Exxon will have to bend if PXD shareholders start making noise….

Not sure I see it in an all stock transaction. If both stocks are staying in somewhat alignment, whether they weaken or not, the conversion would still be roughly the same.

It's him, just like all of them regardless of party. I'm not defending him at all, I think all of them should go to prison for insider trading. All of us on this thread would be bankrupted and probably spend time behind bars, but they're the elites. It's disappointing if he was loaded with AMAT puts before the news that came out AF after portraying himself as principled man by holding up military confirmations. I say that as a conservative that has to vote republican. They should all face the same fate as we would. We're a third world ****hole now though.
