Tiarra takes the lead - - four horses closely clustered

[sd]

Bought some ACIW, but also noticed COL/aerospace making large moves in the industry group today- some breakouts, HII just trucking steadily higher- Bought some OA on the longer term breakout- LMT big breakout today as well- but HII has been steady trending higher-for weeks! Think that was a Blygh pick prior...lots of underlying strength LLL paused in the uptrend, breaking higher-As a group- a lot of momentum seems to be continuing- i think LLL with a stop at 164 looks worth a gambit.on a 170 break. Risk about 3%- And IRA- LMT busting out!.

[blygh]

I have been holding Spiderman's default pick - EXAS- for a good gain. I bought some ITA  an defense aerospace ETF which own LMT GD MLM HEI HII NOC BA- Thinking about Oil and Gas equipment makers/explorers SLB RIG NBR HP -  the ETFs are DIG and IEZ.  Natural gas stocks are behaving strangely -  there is a profit to be had if I can figure out what is happening.  CCP is highly correlated with URA and can be bought in place of URA when URA rises suddenly

Blygh takes the lead with Real Deal close on - Tiarra is stopped out

[sd]

ACIW dropped almost 5% fast- I got caught on this one. Should have had a stop at about $19.90 , but failed to lock it in- New sell is at today's low-
I like ITA/ETF's as a way to distribute the Risks- and capture some gains- It pulled back today a bit, let's see if Trump's defense speech gives it a boost-
Utilities getting some buying this past week in XLU- safety trade-

Real Deal powers ahead  Blygh chasing

[blygh]

NICE POP ON ACIW today (11.62% at 10:40) - sold off last week's pick HII - Coastguard ship may be cancelled.  EXAS - Spiderman's default pick continues to gain - RS Real Deal's default pick rising also - added to my default pick ISRG position.  SD's last week pick AVGO - up 'bigly'  earlier

Blygh continues to lead - Sympathies to Tiarra - would have led with a 12.7% gain but was stopped at a 2.7% loss 

[tiarra]

Thank you for the sympathy. Earnings are so tricky.

[sd]

Earnings are a toss of the Dice it seems! You may get a huge boost, or eviscerated without novicane....
It is truly a toss on the roulette table as to how earnings are reacted to. i guess the word "FAITH" or perhaps it's "HOPE" is appropriate.
Hmm, Allow me a day in advance to declare that i am still short TSLA (race only) - and i will properly add-short at whatever this week's Closing price Is.-

Total Return in 2017 as of 3/3/2017

Rider	Win	Place	Show	Total Return	Default pick
Tiarra	3		1	+0.300%	ETSY
Ira		2	1	-10.992%	VIXY short
Spiderman	1	1	1	-21.361%	EXAS
Real Deal		2		-9.076%	RS
SD	1	2	1	+8.006%	CURE
Blygh	4			+2.720%	ISRG
Market (SPY)		2	5	+5.659%

SD continues to lead in YTD return - the market beats everyone else validating Warren Buffet's advice - re: a broad based index find is the best investment for the non professional 
A further irony is that if Spiderman had stuck to his default pick - EXAS- he would be up 65% YTD

Congrats Blygh for the Win, and RD placing in the $$$$! Tiarra would have taken the field had she not had her stop hit-
