Three Stocks to Speculate with
LVS dropped like a rock due to variance on gaming income in the last quarter as well as increased operating costs in Macau. At below $110 this looks like it has major upside and little more downside. Another way to play this one would be to buy LVSAV (Jan 08 $125 calls) at under $6 per contract.
My next one is GA, gotta love a new IPO, it's trading at $19.28 right now but I think anything at $19 or under has vast upside potential. Now SWHC, people always need more guns right? They are still growing at close to 30% per annum and this one disappointing earnings report killed the stock. Am unable to find any basic business flaws, if someone else finds any please point them out. I had picked it up at $11 after the immediate drop but with a little patience and a good winter quarter this may get back to the $20 range pretty quickly. Jimbo |

Re: Three Stocks to Speculate with
John,
Hope you got in at a good price on both of these. Just curious if you bought the LVS stock or the options. If you got the options near $6 they are now at a bid/ask of $7.60/$8.00, last trade was at $7.30 Good luck for both of us, Jimbo PS: If by some miracle the Jan 08 options reach $10 today I am getting out with a quick 60%+ gain but will hold onto my shares and maybe sell some downside puts. |

Re: Three Stocks to Speculate with
To John Kane in particular but alos to any other interested parties,
I wrote above I would sell downside puts, I meant I would buy them. In particular I would buy downside puts, LVSWB, Nov 110. Ok, now most people here know I don't like too hold onto my profit for too long. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] In keeping with that philosophy I am selling, well just sold my LVS stock (200 shares) at $116.50 for @$1400 profit today, but am keeping my Jan 08 $125 calls.

Re: Three Stocks to Speculate with
Jim,
Questions: Why was the downward move in SWHC so drastic? If you were asked to offer someone up and down ranges prior to the earnings release, what would they have been? What is the current and medium term ~6 mo. fair values for SWHC in your view? Finally, how would you price a call vs. put with medium term expiries with a strike that exactly equals the current SWHC price? i.e. put = $?.??, call = $?.?? (in finance lingo this may be called put-call parity, not sure) If you want to put some thought / answer any of these questions for LVS, that would be helpful as well. |
