frommi Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 In a rising market, aren't you far better off concentrating in finding good value buys? I hate to see you blow up. I invert this, is it not a good idea to buy stocks in a falling market? Don`t be too friggin long at the moment. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lance Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 I bought IBB (iShares Nasdaq Biotechnology ETF) Jan 2016 $250 puts today. Thanks Lance In a rising market, aren't you far better off concentrating in finding good value buys? I hate to see you blow up. Hi PatientCheetah, I'm concerned that the market is overvalued. My IBB puts (and my EEM and IWM puts) are a hedge against my longs, which I would rather not sell. Also, as they're puts, I'm not concerned about blowing up (my LNKD, NFLX and TSLA shorts on the otherhand...). Thanks, Lance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

valueyoda Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 The financials offer a wide array of possibilities right now: Ocwen Financial, Altisource Portfolio Solutions, JP Morgan, Bank of America (plus A warrants), Citigroup, AIG, Genworth Financial, Sberbank. Life Time Fitness, Seaworld Entertainment, Monsanto are some other names that come to mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wachtwoord Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 I sold my PKX and CHL to pay for FIATY, LUKOY and UPL. Mostly because I think PKX and CHL are no longer undervalued (some appreciation and erosion of fundamentals). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly because I think PKX and CHL are no longer undervalued (some appreciation and erosion of fundamentals). i can understand you. also sold last week my posco to buy some stocks with more Price potential When you look at normalized earnings at Posco they are still pretty cheap. In the next steel bull cycle they should be able to earn 3x-4x of what they earn currently. And i doubt that Monish would buy something with 20% upside. :) I will probably look very stupid at the end of the year but i bought more puts today and have now around 50% in cash. And some of west`s Japanese picks have found their way into my portfolio. (Thanks!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
