Comments in the BLOG

Lots of folks have been asking for my view on a favorable entry level for SPKL- I posted a BLOG yesterday with my thoughts.

The BLOG is your opportunity to ask questions and offer comments. I will make an effort to answer every legitimate question. If I don't know the answer, I will contact the management and get the answer. Alternatively, if you have questions you don't want publicly displayed, you can always email me directly at editor@otcjournal.com.

To use the BLOG, simply go to the home page at www.otcjournal.com - the BLOG scrolls down from the upper right hand corner. The most current journal entries appear on the right hand side of you screen. Check back frequently for updates particularly when stocks are moving to overbought or oversold levels in volatile markets.
 

What Do These Stocks Have in Common?

 

Wondering what stocks these are? After all, these are outstanding performers over the past year. They are all in the same industry group, and it's red hot. I am going to publish a new idea this weekend in the same industry group as these companies. See if you can figure it out. I'll reveal the names and symbols in the weekend edition, along with a new idea in this group that hasn't moved. Send me an email to editor@otcjournal.com if you want to guess the answers.
 

Cree (NASDAQ: CREE): Pulls Back to Perfect Entry Level

I'm not going to go into all the reasons I like Cree (NASDAQ: CREE) again. Simply click here if you want to read my original presentation. Let's just say the the LED light bulb you are looking at will eventually replace the incandescent light we have been screwing into sockets for about 125 years.

Fund managers would call CREE's technology "Best of Breed". CREE has the best technology, and in 2008 LED's will start coming into their own.

I suggested jumping into the stock in August at $25. It has since seen $34. Today the stock got clobbered on a weak market day. Fund managers have just been itching for an excuse to lock in their profits, and the cool market day had the stock giving back some recent gains. Some analyst decided they would come in with less than stellar earnings in Q3, and he claims the rumors of a GE Buyout are "exagerated".

As you can see from the chart, shares of CREE pulled back to a perfect 61.8% retracement on the September move, and then bounced. If you are looking to take a position in this stock, or add to an existing one, jump on it tomorrow unless there's a big gap down in the overall market at the open. Then, you can hope for a pullback to that $28.21 level. $29 seems reasonable to me.

I own 1,000 shares at $24.50, but will be looking to pick up more at tomorrow's open. I might pledge some capital to a longer term option, as I did with Apple Computer (NASDAQ: AAPL). The options I bought in August for $12,300 are now worth more than $30,000. I'm looking for $172 to sell or reposition for the move to $200.
