Below you will find a list of stocks researched, hand picked & watched by me. I grade, organize, & rank the plays taking into account Risk (R), Value (Va), Growth Potential (G), Intuitional Ownership (I), Volatility (Vo), Earnings History (H), & Market Conditions (M). I then score them, set price targets, & provide a quick thesis about the company. I do not throw stocks up until I thoroughly research them. The way I figure it, I ought not be drawing attention to stocks I'm not confident enough to buy myself. The Stock Tip Report is NOT investment advice, it is strictly to assist you in your own idea generation, & you should always do your own DD.

Breaking Market Moving News Heading into 10/18/2021:

StockTips News Key Takeaway: It seems that solid banking earnings has reversed some of the bearish sentiment in the markets & attitudes are changing for the positive this earnings season. However recent poor GDP numbers in China may produce bearish sentiment across world markets in the short run. Expect good to normal earnings this Fall Season with sustained to lowered guidance for many companies due to semiconductor shortages & supply chain issues. For these reasons & more (See FUD Tracker) good earnings may sell off until further clarification the following quarter … or until some supply chain relief. However never underestimate the ability for a solid earnings season to continue to draw attention away from real world economic woes. Moreover we ought to keep in mind that there is a difference between having too few workers to meet demand & having too few workers to exceed previous production. I believe you will find the case is in the former category this earnings season much more so than the latter (which can be good). The two most persistent problems companies will need to contend with this Fall/Winter is receiving the necessary supplies to keep up with demand & having enough workers to meet demand.

• Cramer’s week ahead: It’s time to be constructive as earnings season picks up

• China GDP disappoints, third-quarter growth slows to 4.9% (I stand by my assessment that between harassing Taiwan & firing off hypersonic rockets, China is attempting to project strength to the world to cover for their faltering economy … i.e. energy issues, supply chain issues, construction issues, & semiconductor issues. Remember that real estate in China is a massive form of retail investment, propping up GDP, jobs, & local government income)

• Do you need to start holiday shopping even earlier this year? Here’s what retail experts say (The anxiety alone is enough to secure a solid early shopping season … but what after that?)

• China surprises U.S. with nuclear-capable hypersonic missile test, FT reports (Timing is suspect. These type of things are randomly done out of the blue. China looks to be demonstrating strength from a position of economic weakness)

• Restaurants wary of winter, looking to Washington amid inflation, supply chain crunch, worker shortage

Todays STOCK TIPS: If its on this list (BELOW), I’m either holding a position or considering it for my own portfolio.

Note: I likely have a different trading style than you. Therefore I may look at stocks & approach the market differently than you. I trust the financials. I mostly target reliably profitable growth stocks trading at a value on a dip of no consequence pending favorable economic conditions. I buy in slow, & sell the excess, if necessary, on the parodic pops above my cost basis. I love covered calls on volatile stocks. I build positions by buying in slowly in the red & I’m willing to run the clock on what I see as a promising trade. I also expect & account for uncertainty & constantly re-evaluate. FOMO to me is an F-word. I don't chase & I never buy meme stocks. I am willing to limit profit to guarantee it & there is nothing I love more than a market panic. I outperform impatient folks swinging for grand slams because I hit homeruns while swinging for base hits. Quite often plays can take as long as a quarter, or perhaps more, to pan out. Discipline goes a long way. Discipline, however, is a lot easier if you know what you’re trading.
