Stock Picks for Wednesday, January 05

( click to enlarge )

Today marked an important shift in Plug Power shares as they closed above a major horizontal resistance line that has been forming since December. The stock was one of the big winners on Tuesday, closing up $0.068 on the day. Plug Power Inc. (NASDAQ:PLUG) traded heavy volume as it hit a high of $0.48. This high is resistance for Wednesday’s continuation move. Looking at the technical chart I see a stock that cleared a sideway consolidation base. The first target is the last pivot high over $0.569. Keep the stock on your radar for Wednesday’s trading day.

Force Protection, Inc. (NASDAQ:FRPT) is on the verge of a breakout from an ascending triangle pattern. Watch for a move above $5.70 on a closing basis to confirm a target of $6+.

The Only Emerging Market That Looks Attractive Right Now Is Vietnam.

Dr. Farber`s emerging markets outlook (from Commodity Online):

"While he is very bullish long-term on emerging markets, investors should avoid (or at least lighten up on) emerging market stocks right now. They should only be bought on corrections which would represent favorable entry levels. Overall, Faber thinks the SP 500 will outperform emerging markets in 2011. The only emerging market that looks attractive right now is Vietnam (VNM)."

Related ETFs: iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Indx (ETF) (NYSE:EEM), SPDR S&P 500 ETF (NYSE:SPY), iShares MSCI Brazil Index (ETF) (NYSE:EWZ), Market Vectors Vietnam ETF. (NYSE:VNM)

Stock Picks for Tuesday, January 04

Happy New Year Investors ! It’s time to kick-start 2011 with new trade Ideas for the coming trading session.

( click to enlarge )

Ciena Corporation ( NASDAQ:CIEN ) was a big winner today. The price of the stock closed up $0.66, a 3.14% increase. During the trading day, over 3.7 million shares of Ciena's were traded. The stock seems to have broken out of a three-week trading range in the $21 area. I feel that there will be a continuation move tomorrow, but I want to see it break through a big psychological resistance at the $22 level. There are several short and mid term technical indications suggesting that CIEN could make a move to higher levels. Keep a close eye on CIEN for Tuesday.

( click to enlarge )

A123 Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:AONE) - On daily chart the stock closed above its 200-DMA with increase in volume. Momentum Oscillators are positive.

Level 3 Communications, Inc. (NASDAQ:LVLT) - On daily chart the stock closed with a bullish candle above its 50-DMA and increased volume after consolidating in last few sessions. Momentum Oscillators are positive.

Apple Inc. ( NASDAQ:AAPL ) hit a new 52-week high today, trading as high as $330.26, before settling at a close of $329.57. I'll be watching the stock on Tuesday, looking for a follow through move. Resistance reflects today’s high of $330.26. Keep an eye on AAPL because there is good upside in this stock.

US Treasuries Are A Suicidal Investment

“This is a suicidal investment. Over time, interest rates on U.S. Treasuries will go up. Investors will gradually understand that the Federal Reserve wants to have negative real interest rates. The worst investment is in U.S. long-term bonds.” - in Bloomberg

Related: ProShares UltraShort 20+ Year Trea (ETF) (NYSE:TBT) , iShares Barclays 20+ Yr Treas.Bond (ETF) (NYSE:TLT)

Marc Faber is an international investor known for his uncanny predictions of the stock market and futures markets around the world.

The Next Correction In Stocks Is A Buying Opportunity.

"Faber believes a correction is imminent for the stock market as bullish sentiment (AAII sentiment) nears record levels and mutual fund cash positions remain very low. Furthermore, the latest upward move in stocks has occurred on declining volume, which is usually bearish from a technical point of view. The correction should occur in January. That being said, you should be buying into the correction as it represents a good buying opportunity. Faber prefers energy companies and speculative stocks such as home builders and even AIG. He goes on to say that the third year of a Presidential cycle is very good for speculative stocks versus traditional blue chip value plays." - in Commodity Online

Related stocks & ETFs: SPDR S&P 500 ETF (NYSE:SPY) , ProShares UltraShort S&P500 (ETF) (NYSE:SDS) , iShares Russell 2000 Index (ETF) (NYSE:IWM) , iShares Dow Jones US Home Const. (ETF) (NYSE:ITB), Lennar Corporation (NYSE:LEN) , American International Group, Inc. (NYSE:AIG)

Marc Faber is an international investor known for his uncanny predictions of the stock market and futures markets around the world.

Bullish On Energy Companies

"Faber likes energy companies since the long-term trend in oil is up, as supply fails to keep up with surging demand from emerging markets. Notes that emerging markets have surpassed the developed world in oil consumption and that this trend should keep demand strong for the foreseeable future. Faber likes the majors like Exxon Mobil (XOM), Hess (HES), and even Chesapeake Energy (CHK) as natural gas is too cheap on an inflation adjusted basis. Continuing the energy theme, coal and uranium stocks should be gradually accumulated on weakness as the world looks for alternative sources of reliable energy. Peabody Energy Corporation (BTU) on the coal side and Cameco Corporation (CCO) for uranium should outperform over the next few years." - in Commodity Online

Four Stocks Gaining Momentum

( click to enlarge )

Affymax, Inc. (NASDAQ:AFFY) broke out a short term consolidation pattern accompanied by good volume, indicating some bullish behavior and we could possibly see some continued upside movement. The trend since last week was "buy on dips" and today's move just confirms this fact.

( click to enlarge )

American Oriental Bioengineering, Inc. (NYSE:AOB) successfully broke the resistance at $2.35 confirming a reversal from the previous downward trend. From the technical chart KD line shows positive signals as %K line is rising on top over %D line, and RSI continue moving up. OBV is beginning to turn around which suggests the stock is no longer being sold off. Stock as a major resistance at $2.45. I suspect the stock may continue to appreciate over the coming weeks.

( click to enlarge )

A123 Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:AONE) - Looking at the technical chart, we can see that the recent increase in trading volume and rising OBV suggests buyers are accumulating stock. Traders are hoping for a breakout above $10 to signal that the bull market in stock is back.

( click to enlarge )

Looking at the technical chart of Intel Corporation (NASDAQ:INTC), we have here a well defined uptrend line that has been tested when slow stochastics drops below 20. Each has been a strong buy signal for the stock. It looks like it may be starting to gain some momentum again and could be headed to test upside resistance at 21.50 or even the 22 level.

Hot Basic Materials stocks

Uranerz Energy Corp. (AMEX:URZ) was up over 18% with very unusual volume after announced that it has completed its "at-the-market" financing and has raised US$20 million in gross proceeds through Haywood Securities Inc. The company now has approximately $36 million in its treasury, and there are 70,781,433 shares issued and outstanding. As a result for today's trading session, its volume traded daily went to a 2-month high. Looking at the technical daily chart above, it seems the stock broke the strong resistance area at $3.54 and has moved decisively to the upside. That is a powerful sign that high prices are likely to continue. Long positions may be considered on price weakness, with a stop-loss at $3.04. The next resistance it could encounter is at $4.09. Once that level is breached, the next resistance could be the 52-week high at $4.13. In addition, the On Balance Volume is increasing, this clearly shows that smart money is moving into the stock again.

( click to enlarge )

General Moly, Inc. (AMEX:GMO) has made a new 52-week high of $7.18, after gaining 10% in today’s trading. The 52-week range for GMO is $2.05-$7.18. Looking at the technical chart, the short-term outlook for the stock is bullish with both 20, 50 and 200 daily moving averages going up. The MACD is positive and above the signal line, however the stochastic is now overbought at a level of 82. The next short term consolidation could provide a low risk entry point. Stay tuned !!!

( click to enlarge )

Uranium Resources, Inc. (NASDAQ:URRE) was a big winner today, as the stock closed up $0.27 on good volume. I feel that there will be a continuation move tomorrow, but I want to see it break through $3.48 and keep on going up. There are several short term technical indications suggesting that URRE could make a move to higher levels. Keep a close eye on URRE for Thursday.

Other stocks to watch :

Qiao Xing Universal Resources, Inc. (XING) - Qiao Xing Universal Resources was on fire today. The next resistance is located at $2.87.

Rambus Inc. (NASDAQ:RMBS) - Shares of Rambus are back above $20 per share. RMBS could be headed into the $25's in 2011.

A123 Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:AONE) - Shares of A123 System continue to be very volatile and a stock worth watching. I plan to buy AONE the next time it breaks up through $10.

Sirius XM Radio Inc. (NASDAQ:SIRI) - Shares of Sirius hit a new 52 week high on heavy volume today. Resistance is located at $1.75 and then $2.

Affymax, Inc. (NASDAQ:AFFY) - Shares of Affymax continue to be very volatile. I continue to like pullbacks under $6.40 as a trade.

Intel Corporation (NASDAQ:INTC) - Shares of Intel are starting to heat up again and are worth watching. As I have been saying in my last posts, I think this stock can trade around $21.50-$22 during the next two weeks. The stock broke its resistance and is again above its 50-day moving average.

Stock Picks for Wednesday December 29

( click to enlarge )

Sirius XM Radio Inc. (NASDAQ:SIRI) is looking bullish on charts. The stock is currently trading above its major moving averages and MACD is positive and above the signal line. Other technical indicators are also supporting the bulls. As long as the stock can remain above $1.42, I like the stock. Resistance remains at $1.69 and I would be a buyer on a break above that level.

( click to enlarge )

The stock has several bullish indicators that have being slowly confirmed. AFFY is currently trading above its 50-day MA of $5.89 and is sitting on a good support ( 20-dma) waiting for the bulls to get the lead. RSI is above its 50% level and MACD shows the positive divergence. Money Flow Index is also moving up. The stock has a 52-week range of $4.90-$26.20. The technical chart is simply telling me that this is a nice healthy pullback after a big run. The trend should resume back up in the very near future. Worth putting on the watchlist.

( click to enlarge )

Rambus Inc. (NASDAQ:RMBS) is slowly recovering. The $20.05-20.10 area is a critical resistance region that can determine overall bias for the stock in short-term. Bulls are now attacking the 50-day moving average, a break above could trigger a rally towards 20.64 resistance and determine overall bias. Keep an eye on these levels !

( click to enlarge )

I told you yesterday about A123 Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:AONE) and today the stock hit a high of $9.94 breaking the downtrend line from August of this year and closing above the 200 day moving average. The next key resistance levels are now located at $10.40 and $11.12.

Stock Picks for Tuesday December 28

( click to enlarge )

Hey Traders ! I hope everyone had a great Christmas day, now its all about planning for the new year.

To start things off, let's take a look at the daily chart of the Force Protection, Inc. (NASDAQ:FRPT) . The stock is on the verge of a breakout and there's plenty of room for upside. FRPT closed up 14 cents today and looks poised to make another move on Tuesday. From my point of view, there are solid and consistent buyers here. FRPT's chart suggest that increased buy side activity could push share prices to much higher levels. In the past year, the stock has hit a 52-week low of $3.86 and 52-week high of $6.75. The short-term outlook for FRPT remains positive. The MACD also confirms the recent jump and RSI shows that there's more upside to come. The stock could touch an upside target of $6.55 in the short term. Existing holders could remain invested. A close above $5.73 would have positive implications and could push the stock to the 5.92-6.19 range.

A123 Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:AONE) is also on my radar........From a short-term perspective you can see from the daily chart above that the price is now very close to the short-term trendline that's been in place since August. Therefore there is a high probability that the stock will finally break this downtrend line and move up big and fast, particularly as many indicators are moving upwards.

( click to enlarge )

Cisco Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:CSCO) was able to get up through the resistance and sustained the move. The stock hit a high of $20.26, which is resistance for Tuesday’s move. If the stock can break through resistance, we should see a strong follow through move. Watch the stock closely tomorrow.

Intel Corporation (NASDAQ:INTC) appears to be retesting prior resistance as support.

Stock Picks for Wednesday December 22

( click to enlarge )

Good afternoon everyone! Looks like I'm going to start the day with a technical setup on Affymax, Inc. (NASDAQ:AFFY).

Looking at the technical chart above, we can see a few technical signals suggesting that a swing higher may be in the cards in the short term. I think today's pull back was a good buying opportunity. My first target is $7.55 and the second target is $8.58. Currently the short term chart is bullish and medium-term neutral. Money Flow Index is moving up again and the stock price is currently trading above the major moving averages, which is Bullish. In addition, the stock formed a bullish MACD Crossover signal. Honestly speaking it seems cheap at this level based on fundamentals, the company is debt free and has $4.14 in cash per share. Nevertheless, we have to follow the market direction and not force it. The bullish outlook would be negated on a close below $6.05.

( click to enlarge )

Force Protection, Inc. (NASDAQ:FRPT) broke out today above a major resistance point. Short-term technical indicators are improving and the MACD on the daily chart recently produced a new buy signal. If the stock can break today’s high of $5.73, we should see a strong follow through move. FRPT will move very quickly, so keep a very close eye on the stock.

( click to enlarge )

Bank of America Corporation (NYSE:BAC) - The major resistance has been broken in this technical chart. The price can move up to $13.52-$13.90 in the short-term. The stock has been doing well recently as %K line is on top of %D line with MACD on top of signal line. Now that the stock is above this horizontal resistance line more buyers should be coming.

( click to enlarge )

Sounds like Banner Corporation (NASDAQ:BANR) is gaining some momentum again. The stock has made a strong bounce off of the lows that were posted earlier in the month with high volume. The technical daily chart shows possible new rally as %K line is back above %D line, while the RSI is also gaining strength. If a proper breakout happens at $1.90 we can see a target of $2.29.

The US Economy Will Not Double Dip For Now.

"I don`t think it will double dip for now, we are living in a global economy today and you have parts of the world that are relatively weak, like the US and Europe, although from the lows they have recovered somewhat. Than you have other parts of the world that are very strong, emerging economies, especially China and India. The big question is what will happen to that part of the world."
