  • champ: $SHLD...HOD nice and it takes awhile for Steel demand to get into the markets...park these type of stocks next to each other, $NUE and also this ETF, $SLX, expect zig-zags and I have been saying that,.. when $STLD was at $55, on around July the 20th.
  • debeers: $SHLD-skipped its vendor payments for the first time.. For those of you not familiar with this phenomenon it means that anyone who sold merchandise to Sears may now consider that they have given merchandise to Sears as the bankruptcy should help everyone else in the malls to get a sought after tenant. White flag replaces all the red ones.
  • Henry: $SHLD not my stock but maybe they are not declaring bankruptcy BREAKING: Sears special committee refusing to approve CEO Lampert's plan over concerns it will be opening company up to litigation - source The Fly

    16. $SHLD – good example of upside surprise met by dumping.
    $AMTD --- cup and handle

    17. $ABBV – good setup or too high? Too high. Not sure how much upside from here b/c it’s already run 33% since September.

  • Henry: $SWK unlike $HD this seems to have gone down enough. I just can't believe $HD is going to go the way of $SHLD
  • champ: @Henry $SWK $HD $SHLD --- On $HD traders/investors are just taking profits and are rotating into laggers in this same #RedHot sector $XHB....thats really all thats going on and why not...its a smart move. On $SHID... this stock has been in a drop ever since 2014...really hard to compare because they are not even in the $XHB sector.
  • phgruver: $AMZN and $SHLD are going to put $HD and $LOW out of business? I don't think so. I've been looking for a better entry to add to my hugely profitable $LOW position, and I think I just got it.
  • Vehid: @phgruver $AMZN $SHLD $HD $LOW Looks like AMZN name is enough these days to do anything. Broken Sears roared today because AMAZON. Seeing what happened to $COST, not sure if $HD or $LOW can come up anytime soon.
  • CHOFF: @phgruver $AMZN $SHLD $HD $LOW - agreed....$COST and now $HD killer, I think not.

  • efrain007: $SHLD ugly
  • efrain007: $SHLD testing 200d. Still has support at 50d and uptrend line.
  • efrain007: $SHLD bounced off the 50d yesterday and retesting today. Also has support at uptrend line from February.
  • bigbartabs: $XRT ... I wonder why $AMZN is not in the top 10 holdings of this ETF. Seems like a no brainer to have this as the top dog. Gee, do you think that $SHLD (#2) could be replaced with $AMZN? Whomever manages the tickers in this ETF probably wonders why they never get a year end bonus.
  • DavidM: $SHLD down 8.4% on a stong up day. Considering adding to a short position.
  • DavidM: @Bridget $SHLD Maybe it is time for this poor stock to give it up.
  • DavidM: $SHLD up 8.6 % today. Maybe my short is misplaced.
  • Bridget: @DavidM $SHLD I think this just someone trying to squeeze the shorts. This bounce will soon end and I'll be looking for a bearish entry. But don't anticipate the move, wait for the charts.
  • Bridget: $SHLD this looks like a short squeeze.
  • DavidM: $SHLD closed at the HOD. That is scary.

  • tejas7: $SHLD Bouncing off higher low after earnings. Small, speculative trade. Tomorrow should be better day to add. If and when it prints inside day.
  • Henry: $SWK $SHLD SWK was withing a point or too of me adding more and they went and bought the Craftsman brand from $SHLD now it's up $5 in pm
  • phgruver: @Henry $SWK $SHLD ...that's sad, when you think about it. For years, Craftsman stood head and shoulders above Black & Decker in quality, innovation and function....
  • Kjksm1: Does anybody out there think $shld is a sell?
  • issues: @Kjksm1 $shld It appears to be forming a cup shaped pattern. The pattern doesn't suggest a sell to me.
  • TunaHelper: @Kjksm1 $shld is always a sell for me (or more accurately stated, I'd never own it). Maybe it'd be a trade, but not an investment. Their management is really squirrelly. The chart doesn't inspire confidence.
  • champ: $SHLD @$12 - New Spec swing long on todays News.
  • DAN: $XRT $FIVE $FINL $M $JCP $SHLD -- notice that all of the department stores are moving lower today. Even the ones that are actually up on the day (e.g., $M) are trading at their intraday lows after weak rallies. If you've been trying to catch an oversold bounce...I think that bounce has dun bounced all it's gonna bounce.

  • vbel74: $SHLD made a nice move above 50 SMA.
  • Jadee: @dagdog I guess it is confession time. I unloaded a lot in 2008 but got "stuck" with $SHLD and held it for 4 years stubbornly waiting to recover my loss, I finally took the loss which was 30% not the 50% low but when I consider all the trades I could have used that money on I know this was a great "lesson"
  • dagdog: @Jadee Confession Time - Oh goody! I love it when these come out. Shows how stupid and human we all are! Keep 'em coming....help the newbies feel at home and the oldies feel not so dumb! $SHLD - Yeah, that weekly gives me heart burn...slow, painful dive. At least you didn't hold all the way to $25!
  • GreenGhost: ...
    What's not working: Department stores ($DDS, $M, $SSI, $BONT, $SHLD, $JCP, $KSS, $JWN) went backwards with sales off 1.1% from a year ago. No surprise, but sales at gas stations ($CASY, $KR, $PTRY) also fell off from a year ago.

  • hwyflier: $SHLD : Not that anyone else follows this money making/losing disaster, but today was a possible buy point.
  • hwyflier: $SHLD : Tradable support level today? Seems like it.
  • hwyflier: $SHLD : Finally getting to see what happened Friday. Holy cr--! Up close to 50% intraday? Wish I'd held more. The market liked the store sale idea I guess.
  • hwyflier: @hwyflier $SHLD : Oddly, even after this move we still have a ways to go before moving average resistance, circa 53-54. From where we are now that's another 20 % (and I'll bet it pulls back to 40 first).
  • hwyflier: $SHLD : Up over 50% last 2 weeks, trading over the 200d SMA today. Maybe the insiders know something we don't? Out 1/2 today, stops on rest. Maybe get a re-test of 31.5?
  • hwyflier: @hwyflier $SHLD : When this thing moves it's one crazy MF....(Molly Freidman?)
  • SalmonRiver1: @hwyflier $SHLD I saw on CNN that they were closing a number of stores. Guess that is good news??? Congratulations on your profits.
  • hwyflier: $SHLD : Clear breakout yesterday on weekly chart. Just settling in today. Lots of insider buying. Raised 1.5B additional capital for the holidays.
  • hwyflier: @henrik511 $SHLD : Interesting. But why put their money at risk? Here's a group that increased their stake recently although they do have a vested interest. http://finance.yahoo.com/news/why-fairholme-capital-ups-position-130017005.html Interestingly, it also ranks as one of the nations top 3 online retailers above Saks and Neimans. http://www.cnbc.com/id/101996453 Who knows............
  • Jazman0013: @darkenedaura Ah, depends on timing... A buddy once said by Kmart. This was before it went to 0 and then was restructured to finally become $SHLD. He was pissed. It happens. The last in line are the holders of the common. Of course the loss was capped at zero. But, that is small comfort. It was a trade I was happy to have missed.
  • Jadee: ...
    Yes I have certain companies and stocks I stay away from, few if any because of who they are and more from previous experience with the issue that prevents me from going back ($SHLD is one). I stopped smoking cold years ago and think no one should ...
  • Jadee: ...

  • Henry4432: $SHLD - Don't look now but Sears is in a volatility #squeeze and is now above the 50-day. A close above it may put 50 into play. http://stockcharts.com/h-sc/ui?s=SHLD&p=D&yr=0&mn=6&dy=0&id=p47857703498

  • sfuller: $SHLD - One of the many things about the stock market that is perplexing. The company has no fundamentals, is not sexy in any way, should be a short buyers dream and it continues its uptrend. Must be on a 6-month short #squeeze or something. As they say on Fast Money, this is a no touch for me.
  • hwyflier: $SHLD : @sfuller , Well, Santa is coming to town and the $IHS pattern may allow it a bit more upside from here.
  • :
  • hwyflier: $SHLD : "Nessie" pattern. We've seen this one before, just before she jumps out of the water. Actually, Sears is a big momentum trader, and is squeezing near the channel top after a period of consolidation. Worth watching. The last move ran 70% or so. http://www.freestockcharts.com?emailChartID=544f1cf1-b78c-465a-8a3a-f5577af44947 click discard last session to view.

  • Tim S: $SHLD - This isn't a flag pattern. A flag pattern is a short-term period where, after a big breakout (the "flag pole") the stock pulls back slightly for a couple of days (forming the "flag"). It's resolved when the stock resumes moving higher, at w ...
  • ginny: $SHLD @dmgrevas what an interesting chart. Just looking at the chart the 8, 21, and 50 are all in the right order. However, I don't think that I would buy this stock. Just because of the underlying company. If I was investing, I would put my money on stronger underlying company. There are so many strong companies with great charts. Follow the Bio's look at @DeBeers and @Tricia's stocks. I believe we are due to a pull back and stronger stocks will hold up better that the weaker. hope this helps
  • Aragorn: $SHLD - at teh 8ema on the daily this needs to hold or the next stop is the 21 as mentioned not really a flag but a great chart pattern pulling back to support. Watch for the bounce to add or if fails you can decide to get out if holding. GL

  • DAN: $SHLD -- someone asked me about $SHLD a couple of weeks ago (frankly, I forget whether it was in a post or email...or whether it was someone I was talking with face-to-face -- which is scary for me. Memory issues?) Anyway, I said that I wasn't particularly enthused about it because it was just kind of chopping around, trying to build a base and not doing a very good job. Should've gone all in. Very late to buy now. Do not chase. (Now watch -- that advice will probably be wrong too!) @Dan
  • hooked1: $SHLD - Plus, it filled the gap from 5/22
  • Tim S: $SHLD - high short interest and a big bounce today. 36% of the float is short, meaning 16 days to cover at average volume. Up over 5% already this morning. Not a perfect entry opportunity, but certainly one to keep an eye on for further upside. For it to be up this strong in a down day ... is something.
  • :
  • hooked1: $SHLD - Moving out of a flag, a bit far above 200 day, but 50 day about to cross the 200, and 14.2 short ratio. What's not to like?
  • hooked1: $SHLD - Really moving now
  • hwyflier: At support yesterday? : $F BAC $BTU FSLR $NAT QIHU $SHLD FB $WPRT MAKO WFR
  • Tim S: $SHLD, $PLCE, $NJR, $ECA, $EBIX, $UA, $DWA, $FIRE, $CRZO - stocks I'm watching. $CHK also comes up on my scan and I'm already in this one (as are some others that I know followed me)
  • bigbartabs: $SHLD, $PLCE, $NJR, $ECA, $EBIX, $UA, $DWA, $FIRE, $CRZO, $CHK... @Tim S... good list, thanks for sharing. Was it simply a #squeeze scan that found these? Or did you have other scan criteria?
  • pcotton: Early #squeeze breakouts (up or down) today - #Squeeze yesterday, but not today as of now (this can change intraday), using Bollinger's definition APKT, $AUY, BIG, $GPS, $MPC, $NU, $RRC, $TIVO, $VLO, $XRAY Same scan premarket today (yielding #squeeze 2 days ago but not yesterday)- $ABC, $ACAD, $BRCD, $CLSN, $EXPR, $HNT, $OMX, $SHLD These stocks are worth watching for phase 2 pullback and bounce. Or just buy with stop (if the breakout is up). A longer #squeeze length supports a reliable breakout. Edited on Jan 16, 2013 14:02 Edited on Jan 16, 2013 14:02
  • pcotton: Early #squeeze breakouts (& a couple breakdowns): $AAPL, $ABC, $ACAD, $BLOX, $BRCD, $BTU, $CLSN, $EVER, $EXPR, $HNT, $SAP, $SHLD, $SNPS, $WCG
  • Tim S: #ShortSqueeze - I just read a report talking about potential short squeezes that could pop and/or have further to run. Some of the stocks we talk about in the forum frequently that are listed, with their percentage of the float that is short: $Z 49.73% $SHLD 45.6% $HLF 38.0% $VHC 35.6% $DNDN 29.6% $ARNA 29.3% $RIMM 28.27% $CLNE 26.5%
  • :
  • MissMet: $SWKS - Listened to the recording last night, and still believe in Aldrich long term. At @Dan's suggestion last night, might mow the grass today, as in this part of the country it still needs attending to. Also, might visit $JCP with the $10 coupon they sent, and check on employee sentiment. I noticed Sears, $SHLD, is closing their anchor store at the mall. Nordstrom, $JWN, taking their place. Penney customers bolt to Target & Kohls, and now Sears customers bolt to JCP? These retailers need to market their properties to the Mexicans. The wealthy Mexicans are buying up higher end residential in my area.

It is a little dangerous because I just stabbed myself with a screwdriver trying to remove fabric staples..... Ouch :/ My thoughts on The Market is we keep front running central bank easing.
