Apple suppliers, Why I went from GE bear to bull, Calix, Nvidia and more

Here’s the transcript from this week’s Live Q&A Chat. Q. With two of $AAPL’s suppliers ($LITE & $SWKS) having warned that they will miss revenue estimates big time, why aren’t you more concerned about what they might be signaling about iPhone revenues at Apple?

Trade Alert: One more tiny AAPL options tranche

If there’s another whoosh down today, I’ll likely do a little trimming of my index put hedges and I might do a little more buying. For now, I’m going to do a one more small trade this morning. I’m buying another TINY tranche of AAPL call

Trade Alert: Apple options trade

I’m going to be opportunistic again here this morning and nibble some AAPL call options dated out into February with strike prices around $200. The stock is down a bunch since we trimmed some near its all-time highs a few weeks ago and is probably a bit oversold.

Trade Alert: Adding to two positions (and I’m no longer bearish on GE, just FYI)

Well, I’d mentioned that I didn’t think the selling was all over yet, and sure enough, it’s gotten to be ugly again. There’s some outright panicky action going on in a lot of names out there and I think there’s probably some good nibbling opportunities

What happens if the Democrats win (or if the Republicans win), Call option recommendations and more

Here’s the transcript from this week’s Live Q&A Chat. The most telling thing from the chat was that people are wanting to buy call options and otherwise lacking fear. Be careful out there is my advice, as you’ll see often below. Q. Any thoughts or

Join me for this week’s Live Q&A Chat at 9am ET tomorrow (Tuesday) morning. We’ll have a lot to talk about since the markets have been up and down and all around over the last week since our last one. In the meantime, here’s a

Spy vs Spy: The put trade explained

I’ve got my hands full launching the hedge fund and that’s limited my writing time lately. That said, starting in January when the fund launches, I’ll be writing a lot more often and the analysis will be deeper and longer than ever before. I’ll be highlighting

Trade Alert: Ugh, WDC

I need to let you know what I’m going to do with our loser, WDC. Long story short, I feel completely misled by management there and I am astonished at how badly they’ve mismanaged things in just the last 90 days. You guys know I’m a long-

ETFs, The Big One(?), Nvidia, Axogen, Under Armour and more

Markets bounced. Have to see if it sticks though. I got filled on some of the puts I was bidding on with lower strike prices than the ones we sold. Facebook reported strong earnings after hours. I’ll have much more tomorrow. Here’s the transcript from this week’s

Who’s more scared, the bulls or the bears (or the elk)?

There’s palatable fear out there finally, and unlike last week, I doubt that tomorrow’s Live Q&A Chat at 9am ET will be full of people looking for stocks to buy. In a contrarian way, that’s a bullish thing and since most near-term market turns

Trade Alert: Taking profits on our puts, buying some cheaper puts too

After a brief morning respite, the stock markets are falling again this afternoon and I’m going to make a few moves that will lock in some profits on our existing put hedges and roll our puts down a bit to balance the portfolio out a little. In other words,
