Watchlist for August 26, 2004

| 1 TrackBack

I've been trying to get through my scans this morning but I can't seem to pull myself away from the U.S. vs. Spain Olympic basketball game for long enough to get much done. I'll post the gappers sometime around 9:00 but the swing trades may have to stay as TBD today.

Luckily my shorts didn't move much yesterday, so I'm still holding all of them. A couple of my stops are real close to being hit though.

Here's an interesting note on Google:

08:55 GOOG Google started with Sell rating, $76 tgt at Janco Partners (106.00 )

Janco notes strong fundamentals and favorable market trends, no near-term downside catalysts, but says valuation is too high, based on its discounted cash flow analysis. Firm notes Google needs to diversify rev. base beyond paid search (98% of revs in 1H) and become more of a portal, says any deceleration in paid search would immediately show in GOOG's performance.

And so it begins...

For those of you who read MaoXian, he's now providing an Atom feed at http://www.maoxian.com/atom.xml

Currently holding:


Long - None

Short - ADI, DOX, DVA, MOGN, SFA

Looking for swing trade entries in:

Longs - To be determined, if I can get away from this basketball game

Shorts - To be determined, if I can get away from this basketball game
