Trading Week 6/27/16

What an exciting week coming to an end and we can't wait for Monday. Brexit shook up some of our plays, luckily we stayed out of forex due to the risk trading such an event. Our cryptocurrency plays knocked it out of the park with ETH recovering from 0.0015 to 0.0023 and XRP moving upwards strongly after our alert.

Forex Play

Waiting for volatility to revert back to normal from Brexit aftershocks. We will most likely have a new play next week.

Stock Picks This Week

VVUS (VIVUS) A biopharmaceutical company developing and marketing therapeutic products mainly. It has two approved therapies by the FDA including a product that treats ED. Price action has been interesting here with price stable around $1.10 at the beginning of 2016 before $1.80 on big volume for over a month before depressing back down to $1.00 levels, this recent push was based on investors hearing chatter on new FDA filings for generic versions of STENDRA, their own ED treatment medicine.

With Institutions like North Tide Capital heavily investing into VVUS at the price of $1.12 and $1.40 we see huge price growth possible, institutional ownership hovers around 40% however shorts are heavy right now with 27 days to cover, this can end up helping the price growth as shorts try to buy back and cover their positions in addition to investors being attracted at this 1.00-1.15 price level. VVUS is highly leveraged with their finances more-so than usual pharmaceuticals giving them room for faster growth but no room for mistakes. Price to sales puts the company in a nice spot compared to its peers, we see high growth in the future here and we recommend you keep a tight watch on VIVUS' future financing options, cash flows and we should see a real possibility of huge growth and achievements for the company.

Buy under $1.05

MDVX (Medovex) A development-stage company making/marketing patents and tech info in the medical field. Their main system DenerveX treats joint issues and pain. They recently reached a milestone on a live tissue model test with the DenerveX system. Medovex is riding on the momentum from their previous announcements lifting share price up to $2.25 as investors rushed in to buy before backing off over the course of the month as Brexit tensions heightened. Back to a reasonable price of $1.50 we see a good opportunity to buy back in as other investors think the same. Short term cash flows look to be improving here and price to book ratio is very low.

Buy under $1.40

XXII (22nd Century Group) Although a consumer staple this company is mainly a plant biotech, focused on tobacco and plant research. They are working on being able to fine tune and change parameters of tobacco plants like changing nicotine levels to help smoke cessation in addition to manipulating cannabis plants to increase the THC levels in them. This company has silently been increasing revenue each year and is on track to being profitable in the future as finance and R&D debt is managed properly. Share price started the year at $1.20 and has been slowly battled down to a more reasonable $0.79. As XXII is fairly valued and resumes some stability we see an excellent entry point for a swing trade here.
Buy under $0.77

Trading Week 6/20/16

Our stock plays last week remained very flat, Brexit concerns increased volatility and shook out investor confidence as some would like to wait on the sidelines until the situation is resolved. Stocks from last week to keep an eye on: CBIO

Forex Play

Our GBPUSD play at 1.425 was deemed risky but ended positive with a small USD pullback and more confidence flowing into the pound. The GBP closed at 1.434 from our 1.425 alert.

For this week we are taking a break from Forex to minimize risk.

Stock Picks This Week

DRAM (Dataram Corp) An information tech company, independent producer of memory solutions for business. Recently undergoing an unusual acquisition of US Gold Corp (With assets at $160M) Seeing a strong influx of volume these last months, share price stabilized around $0.60 three months ago, before jumping up to $1.50 on the acquisition news. We see a short term opportunity here as this company re-positions opportunities and growth while managing their debt obligations.
+Accumulation
+Recent spike on volume


Buy under 0.92

IPCI (Intellipharmacuetics International) A pharmaceutics company with a wide pipeline of products including drug delivery systems and product candidates focused on Neurology, Diabetes, and pain. Having just closed their public offering this is a great time to buy with many short term catalysts. Price/Sales ratio is just right for IPCI, in line with their peers. Hovering around $3.00 last year and strong support under 1.50 means a short swing trade could be significant and low risk at these levels.
+Strong bounce from recent all time low


Buy under 1.50

OESX (Orion Energy Systems) A designer and manufacturer of energy efficient lighting, this unknown small cap value company has seen stronger and stronger volume as it nears support at $1.20, although revenue is down this year they issued a statement promising to meet at least $80M in sales next year, this would almost be a ten-fold increase from current numbers. OESX looks poised to make a strong comeback next year and our numbers show they are currently undervalued. Although managing their debt carefully their quick ratio shows short term they have a bit of finances to work with..
+Institution ownership at 49.06%
+Big insider buying at $1.28


Buy under 1.22

Cryptocurrencies

ETH was crushed this weekend from DAO hack news, click here to read more. We believe Ether is far too oversold and is looking bullish in the short term and long term.

XRP is looking poised for big jumps in the future and we are keeping our eyes on Ripple in the medium term.

Our USDJPY was volitile but ended up at 106.9 and we alerted at 106.5. We will begin a long with GBPUSD because traders anticipate a move down here due to brexit tensions however it is not likely and any sort of positive news will provide a good lift for the pair.

LONG GBPUSD at 1.425
UPDATE: This forex play is canceled if 1.3900 is reached.

A New marketing contract contract was established an the long term outlook is great here with a P/E ratio of 0.38 and institutional ownership at 52.72%.

Buy under $1.40
