Monday cinema & library


Quick hitters: Last week, Pete Najarian forecasted an AAPL run to 400. I think the run slows at 385-390. Close enough. Earnings report tomorrow. Today, Joe Terranova also pinpointed a run to 400.

Brian Kelly long silver, calling for a run to 55 before margin hikes cap the run. I suppose that kind of bullishness makes 40 palatable for buying silver stocks and/or physical. I'm not quite there yet. 40 still seems expensive to me, probably because I'm just cheap.

Guru of the Funkiest Kind Turd Ferguson opines (see links below) in his original, eloquent and folksy way again. The knowledge is, as usual, of Great Brain proportions. He mentions this afternoon that he wishes he was on some corn trade. I have no experience there, but I recall bullorbearreport saying that he's long MOO. Whatever that is. Might take a look.

Again, I was right on buying FAZ recently at 43.33, but wrong on selling at 43.03 two Fridays ago. Earnings season might give the banksters some steady turf soon, but I'm leaning toward another small position in FAZ on any drop below 49.
