Take on X ( Trade Type: Technical Analysis) Huge sell-off today over fear that there might be a global slowdown. Buy this stock along with other steel producers as the price of international and U.S. steel prices have not come down. ( Close) |

Take on TSO ( Trade Type: Fundamental Analysis) Tesoro, ticker TSO has been pulverized, however with some justification to the 40 or so point sell of in the last since last summer. Being a refinery this company has been squeezed thanks to higher expenses and crimping margins related to the crack spread (The price between a barrel of oil and prices at the pump). However I believe that we have reached a capitulation point in the stock and that crude prices are likely to recede from their historical highs when the Fed begins to raise interest rates and gets behind the dollar. As a result, we may see the crack spread margin begin to regain much of its lost ground as commodity dollar based resources begin to retreat, however the longer term fundamentals are still intact.
Furthermore over 70,000 call options were traded today (6/24/2008) and though I dont want to speculate but judging by such huge volume, insiders, and institutional investors may be betting that this stock is going higher (that is if they don't know that for a fact ;) ( Close) |
