Trade of the Week for February
Week 1
Sprott Physical Silver (PSLV) This idea is not entirely original and it just might be the darling of the YOLO (You Only Live Once) Reddit crowd this week, so play at your own comfort level of share size. We cannot convey this enough! PSLV is the ETF that is tied to a physical inventory of silver unlike its counterpart SLV. The banks that hold silver on paper as shorts may have a long week ahead of them.
Week 2
Retractable Technologies, Inc. (RVP) | As many of us have learned recently that a stock with a high short float and a strong chart, has the potential for a ‘short squeeze’ higher as the short sellers run for cover and buy back the shares they borrowed to go short. As long as this market dynamic continues, we will look to exploit it. RVP has a very low float of 14 million shares and 30% of them are currently held by short sellers who are likely losing money. Let’s see if the buyers can spook them.
Week 3
Range Resources Corp (RRC) | Range Resources Corp (RRC) has been loitering on the A Table Jr scan for a while now when many of its sector counterparts (such as AR) have been moving higher. It seems it took an extra week for RRC to shape up and make a second attempt at 52-week highs on the chart. For whatever reason, RRC still has a contingency of short sellers (14.2%) that will need to cover, or buy back shares at higher prices.
Week 4
Cleveland-Cliffs, Inc. (CLF)We often talk about timing the ‘jump rope’ of our watchlist or scans. This week is a perfect example of this. It just so happens that Cleveland-Cliffs, Inc. (CLF) on Friday’s close had the nicest looking consolidation of all the “A Table Jr.” candidates we examined. Remember, we don’t like to chase stocks, but rather identify consolidation of strong stocks, then anticipate a move so we can participate in those names once again.
