NEW BUY: LULU
Subscribe in a reader
ITZ suggests entering Lululemon Athletica Inc. (LULU) around $58 level, taking a 1/2 position, looking to add to position should it pullback further. ITZ mentioned several times on Twitter, that $LULU could test $55.
LULU crashed by more than 11% last Thursday as the company's earnings report included a worrisome reduction in sales and earnings guidance. The numbers for the third quarter where actually better than expected, LULU reported a year-over-year increase of 20% in revenue to $379.9 million. They reported better than expected earnings per share of $0.45 versus $0.39 in year-ago quarter. Wall Street analysts were on average expecting earnings of $0.40 per share.
Guidance was a big disappointment, though: Management reduced its sales expectations for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013 to between $535 million and $540 million versus a previous guidance of between $565 million and $570 million.
Earnings: FY ending Jan 2014 $1.95 & 2015 est $2.36; trailing p/e 31.8 & forward p/e 24.9 with a 1.61 PEG.
ITZ's believes management playing it safe by with a low guidance outlook, so it can easily over deliver in the coming quarters. ITZ entry point $58.50

Crude is facing a 'Death Cross' on the daily chart, not necessarily a bad thing. Last time it did, June 2012, it rallied a few weeks later. ITZ has placed a stop using $92 WTI & $28 on UCO. We could see a quick selloff to $90 or even $86 over the next few weeks. If so ITZ will get 100% long via UCO.

Fed Minutes Spook Markets
Subscribe in a reader
Despite the recent slowdown in the housing recovery, Federal Reserve policymakers last month said they still expected to dial down their easy-money policy within a few months, according to meeting minutes released Wednesday. Fed officials also debated whether to pull back the bond-buying program even before the job market shows clear improvement if concerns about its costs and risks increase. The minutes' release at 2 p.m. sent stocks down as investors reacted to the possibility that the Fed could start tapering its economic stimulus soon. Read

Cliffs Natrual Resources (CLF) Looks Attractive Here
Subscribe in a reader
ITZ takes a look at Cliffs Natural Resources (CLF), the iron ore producer's stock price has gone from $95 over two-years ago to test $15 and currently around $27.50. The company & stock price is turning around. Its debt load and China's economic slow down painted a bearish outlook for the raw materials provider, but recently has seen cost cutting help reduce its debt profile.
CLF is a global company, recent positive PMI news from China, Europe and the U.S. has helped in a rebound. Manufacturing PMI is a key indicator, it has recently crossed above the 50 level in China & Europe and continues to rise here.
Analysts continue to remain bearish even though the world is experiencing an earth-shaking resurgence in manufacturing. In October, the JP Morgan Global Manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) grew to an incredible 29-month high, rising to 52.1 in October. A number above 50 indicates expansion in manufacturing, and if manufacturing is expanding, so should the economy.
Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Composite Leading Indicator has been heading in a positive direction. This leading indicator provides early signals of turning points in business cycles, including economic activity. Historically, metals performance has closely followed this leading indicator, so as developed markets improved, the S&P GSCI Industrial Metals Index increased.
On a bullish observation- global manufacturing is the relationship between growing strength in PMIs and higher returns from certain commodities, including copper, crude oil, as well as energy and materials stocks. ITZ has recently turned bullish on Crude Oil and suggested entering Proshares UltraCrude ETF (UCO) and continues to favor Silver Wheaton (SLW). Freeport McMoran (FCX) has been in the news recently as hedge funds are getting back into it, looking for copper to go higher.

Summary: ITZ is bullish on CLF due to several factors; mining industry has stabilized and its outlook has improved, CLF's balance sheet is continuing to improve, generating improved cash flow and profits, the Bloom Lake mine issue has been priced in and stock remains undervalued. With a PEG of 0.83 and the material sector at 1.61 -the market is to bearish on the stock and is attractive around $27.
The technicals are also bullish, with a Golden Cross, Inverted Head & Shoulders. It has broken above it's neckline with a throwback reversal. ITZ BUY $27 stop $25.50 & PT $35

Himax Technologies (HIMX) The key driver to Himax's success is its development and manufacturing of liquid crystal on silicon (LCoS) micro-displays, a component of wearable technology.
In July, Google bought a 6.3% stake in Himax's display subsidiary to ramp production on LCoS chips and micro-displays once Google Glass launches. It also has the option to buy up to 14.8% in Himax within one year of the deals closing date.
The stock is high Beta and speculative, but not that expensive comparable to other momentum stocks. Himax is looking for 2013 earnings of $0.39 per share and estimates call for $0.63 in 2014 (60% earnings growth). With a trailing eps of 25xs and a forward of 13.9xs. Price to sales of 1.89 and a PEG of 0.75. It has $0.79 per share in cash and a dividend yield of 2.9%. ITZ 12 month PT for HIMX $16.

ITZ Weekend Update: Crude Oil
Subscribe in a reader
Secretary of State John Kerry has joined the talks with Iran over its nuclear program. Experts say an agreement could drive prices down $10 a barrel. Six western nations and Iran were expected to iron out an agreement during a meeting in Geneva that could ease sanctions against Iran, which have removed more than 1 million barrels per day (bpd) of oil from world markets.
However, talks hit a snag on Saturday with a French objection that the proposed deal did not do enough to curb Iran's nuclear ambitions. LINK
Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu warned Kerry and his European counterparts that Iran would be getting "the deal of the century" if they carried out proposals to grant Tehran limited, temporary sanctions relief in exchange for a partial suspension of its nuclear program and a pledge not to expand it. LINK
Emerging legislation from Republican Sen. Bob Corker could block Obama from easing sanctions on Iran and create tougher conditions for reaching an interim deal with Tehran. LINK
For now, ITZ believes the decline in WTI Crude Oil is over done to the down side, $93 being support near term and is looking for a rally from here. On November 5th ITZ made the call to go long crude via Proshares Ultra Crude Oil ETF (UCO) LINK
ITZ entered UCO with 1/4 positions this past week *see comments to above link- @ $29.25 & $29.60.
The gasoline chart $GASO has been a reliable indicator in the past, as with $WTIC the RSI is testing the oversold 30 level.
