TPS Position Update – May 30, 2014
May 30, 2014
. . . . Wave Systems (NASDAQ: WAVX) – Hold
What a run for WAVX!
The stock shot higher on strong news and is currently an impressive 104% winner.
Basically, the company’s management software has been validated for use withSanDisk (SNDK) products. As SanDisk is a major brand, this is very exciting news for the much smaller WAVX.
This could be just the start of a big move higher for Wave Systems. Let’s keep holding our shares for now.
. . . . Quicksilver Resources (NYSE: KWK) – Sell
We’re once again looking to trim our portfolio as small and micro cap stocks have been getting the “sell” treatment by investors. It’s a good idea during times like this to take some profits off the table.
KWK has been another solid performer for us, which we’ve held for not quite a year. It’s currently a 51% winner.
Recently, the company missed on earnings expectations and caused a bit of a pullback in the share price. As such, it could take awhile for this stock to rebound above its 200-day moving average.
Let’s go ahead and sell the shares here while they’re still solid gainers.
. . . . General Moly (AMEX: GMO) – Buy up to $1.30
GMO hasn’t done a whole lot since we bought it back in December. But that could soon change.
We’re not overly reliant on the technical side of things here – we tend to stick to fundamentals. However, the consolidation/triangle pattern forming in GMO is very compelling.
Given the recent upgrade on the stock, we believe the breakout move for GMO will be upward. In fact, a move to $1.35 in the coming weeks would not be a shock.
With the stock sitting right around our initial buy price, it’s still okay to buy GMO shares up to $1.30.
