Stocks in focus for Friday

( click to enlarge )

11% Increase!!! A truly remarkable day for Eastman Kodak Company (NYSE:EK) shares.  The stock surged 11.32 percent or 54 cents to $5.31 per share, spurring bullish options trading, amid renewed speculation the company is an acquisition target. Breakout !!!!! After nearly a month of consolidating sideways shares of Eastman Kodak broke out higher past resistance near $4.85. This is a very short-term bullish development. Conservative traders may want to exit now but I'm going to adjust my exit target just a little bit and move it from $5.68 to $5.95. Aggressive traders could easily aim for the $6 or $6.25 level. I first alerted on this one Friday night and Yesterday when it was trading at $4.77. Today it hit a high of $5.48 for a possible gain on 15% and ended the day at $5.31 so readers who bought in on my inital alert are still up 16%!! Hope everyone is having fun and making some money. To answer some of the e-mail's I have been receiving : Thank you for telling me about your success with EK and other alert's I have brought you. Technically speaking, EK looks promising. The stock is in a very strong bull market as MACD is high above signal line and %K line has just crossed on top over %D line. In addition, the long term trend is now bullish as the stock is on top of 50-day moving average and back above the 200-day moving average. All of the common indicators point to some very positive near-term advances.

Texas Instruments Incorporated (Public, NYSE:TXN) continues to show relative strength with another new relative high. The stock is beginning to look a little short-term overbought and due for a dip. I would expect TXN to find short-term support at the rising 10-day moving average near $32.85. On the other hand, fresh exposures may be considered on a move above $33.93.

After two days of relative weakness we're finally seeing an oversold bounce in Cisco Systems (NASDAQ:CSCO). Immediate resistance is at $20. A break above that area could trigger further upside recovery testing $21.12. Stay tuned !!!!

I have been warning readers that GigaMedia Limited (NASDAQ:GIGM) looks like it would bounce back toward resistance near $1.73. From a technical standpoint the larger trend is still bearish but  in the short-term technical indicators have turned bullish with the bounce. The MACD also confirms the price movement byheading higher and RSI shows that there's more upside to come. Furthermore, the most recent data shows that the short interest increased significantly ( 35% ). That's a high-degree of short interest, and raises the risk for a strong short squeeze. Right now I'd watch the 20-dma near $1.50 as short-term support.

Stock Picks for Friday December 3, 2010

( click to enlarge )

Citigroup Inc. (NYSE:C) has proven its bullishness. The stock has been moving with large volume over the past three trading sessions breaking several resistance lines. This definitely is a very bullish sign for this stock. The technical chart shows the momentum indicators have turned up and the RSI is on the rise. For the short term the stock should still continue to go up. A close above $4.52 would have positive implications and could push the stock to the 4.90-5.07 range. 

( click to enlarge )

GigaMedia Limited (NASDAQ:GIGM) gained 4.83% for the day and formed a bullish continuation signal and also gave us a bullish MACD crossover which is a powerful bottom reversal signal and confirms my opinion that the stock is bottoming in preparation for a major bounce higher. Short-term traders can buy the stock with stop-loss at $1.41.

 ( click to enlarge )

Atmel Corporation (NASDAQ:ATML) broke out to a new high for the year. This is generally a hot buy from a technical perspective, however and at this point the stock is a bit  extended for additional positions. The RSI indicator at the top of the chart is showing an overbought reading. This doesn't mean that the price cannot go higher. The stock hit a high of $11.53 on the day, which is resistance for Friday’s continuation move. If the stock can break through this level, we should see another strong upside move.

Stock Picks for Thursday December 2, 2010

 ( click to enlarge )

Motorola, Inc. (NYSE:MOT) had a spectacular day after announcing Jan. 4 date for company to split in two. Motorola investors will get 1 share of Motorola Mobility Holdings Inc., for every 8 shares they now own, the company said yesterday. Immediately afterward, it will swap 7 old shares of Motorola for 1 new share in the remaining company, boosting the stock’s value by a proportional amount to lift its marketability. The stock hit a high of 8.20 and ended at 8.01 for an end of day of 4.5% !!!  The day’s high has clearly demonstrated that the potential for the stock is well above its current value. From a technical perspective, as long as the stock holds above the $7.70 support level the intermediate-term picture should remain positive. It seems that after today's trading, the short-term trend is bullish and a move to the 8.50-8.75 range appears likely.

 ( click to enlarge )

For almost a month, the technical indicator OBV has been higher, and higher highs but the price action has been going sideways, that is called a bullish divergence. Because this kind of a "bullish divergence" generally ends up pushing a stock into a sharp rally, potentially unlocking piles of money in the process. So a BIG rally is now a definite possibility. Looking at the technical chart above, Eastman Kodak Company (NYSE:EK) is forming a symmetrical triangle with support at 4.66. I am expecting a breakout at 4.85. Aside from the triangle, EK is also forming a rounding bottom. A good breakout volume would be 6M-8M shares traded. Keep your eye on Eastman Kodak Company.

 ( click to enlarge )

Citigroup Inc. (NYSE:C) broke through resistance and was able to sustain this move. The stock hit a high of $4.31, which is resistance for Thursday’s move.  If  the stock can break through resistance, we should see a strong follow through move. Watch the stock closely tomorrow.

  ( click to enlarge )

GigaMedia Limited (NASDAQ:GIGM) - The near-term trend is bearish and the stock faces a strong resistance at $1.50. A close above this range is a pre-requisite for the reversal of the bearish trend. The daily Oscillators and MACD are turning bullish and the price is now above the 5-MA, so the Bears have to be cautions because there is a high short interest in the stock. Keep an eye on GIGM for Thursday.
