Can you handle one more big trade this week?
Good Evening!
It’s been a big week for those of you who’ve been trading my alerts, but there’s always room for more with the “January Effect” still on the table.
Take tomorrow’s alert, for example. It combines two separate multi-billion themes in one attractive dime-priced package.
The room to grow on this baby is incredible.
We’re not starting from anywhere near zero, but when you see the big numbers at stake, you’ll see the math lining up in an interesting way.
Is it any wonder traders have started piling into this ticker in numbers we’ve never seen in all of history?

Market Wrap-Up for Jan.25 (MSFT, AAPL, GWW, WLP, TXT, GLD, more)
It was another Ben Bernanke to the rescue day for the markets as the latest Federal Reserve commentary has rates likely remaining low till the end of 2014 now. Again, more bad news for savers and investors that remain sitting mostly in cash.
We continue to monitor earnings season closely, and despite today’s Fed announcement, we remain super-selective in our recommendations. As much as we would like to add a bunch of new names to our Best Dividend Stocks List, we’re still wary of how many companies continue to offer cautious guidance (as well as lowered guidance). If valuation was a concern before, you can bet we’re even more alert now that these lower earnings numbers are coming in.
Looking at some of the big movers on earnings-related news today, shares of Textron (TXT), Occidental Petroleum (OXY), and Polaris Industries (PII) jumped higher on better-than-expected earnings news, while shares of Wellpoint Inc. (WLP) (earnings here), W.W. Grainger (GWW) (report here), Corning (GLW) (more here), and Hess Corp (HES) all ended lower following their results. It was a big day for Gold (GLD) prices as investors see the printing press effect on U.S. dollars as a reason to get long the yellow metal.
Can Apple Sustain its Momentum?
The big name that the markets were glued to last night was tech titan Apple Corporation (AAPL), which easily blew away earnings estimates in their latest report. Many dividend investors are probably eying these shares, wishing Apple would pay a dividend. With nearly $ 100 billion in cash sitting in its coffers, we’ll likely see some form of a dividend initiated by Apple, but only time will tell.

Market Wrap-Up for Jan.19 (MS, UNP, BLK, UNH, JCI, EK, GS, more)
This morning’s jobless claims number, which indicated the lowest read since 2008, brought continued optimism to the markets. All major indices held on to the early gains to finish up once again.
Earnings helped move the tape upward as well. The reaction to reports from Morgan Stanley (MS) (read the report here) and Union Pacific (UNP) (earnings here) were bullish, while there was some hesitancy from investors in reaction to results from UnitedHealth Group (UNH) (report here), Johnson Controls (JCI), and BlackRock (BLK) (report here). As I warned earlier this week, don’t be surprised to see a negative reaction on seemingly good earnings results, or vice-versa.
In other news, Goldman Sachs (GS) added to yesterday’s big pop as well. Overseas markets have followed suit with the U.S. indices thus far, as we continue to see a bounce higher in early 2012.
Eastman Kodak Bankruptcy Spurs Trader Panic
Plenty of risk-happy day traders are left scrambling today on news that Eastman Kodak (EK) officially filed for bankruptcy. The NYSE also immediately suspended trading of EK shares and delisted the stock. I now hear that the stock is trading on the OTC market (pink sheets), so the risk-takers may have an outlet to salvage a portion of the money they foolishly sank into Kodak.
