- joelsg1: $COO Sold shares and June $70 calls for medium profits.
- joelsg1: $COO Trimmed half June $65 calls for 60% gain.
- MongosPawn: $COO Continues its bounce as it gapped up today. Now trying to fill the gap above.
- joelsg1: $COO Off the mat on Day 4 post-E. CFO at William Blair conference in 2 hours.
- Motorman: @joelsg1 $COO New name to me, dead cat bounce or worth watching?
- MongosPawn: @joelsg1 $COO Added a little.
- joelsg1: @Motorman $COO This is an oldie but goodie legacy holding for me since $6, used to be my largest but terrible chart past 3.5 years but I was super slow to reduce due to cap gains. Still in it though and watch closely. Steady 7% grower will earn over $4 this year and its P/E fell in half, so I think unfairly punished post-E 5/29. And way below the 200d 'where nothing good happens' so strictly a bounce trade now to perhaps $80.
- Motorman: @joelsg1 $COO Thank you for the detailed insight. Might be worth as LT hold.
- joelsg1: $COO CFO Brian Andrews finished at Blair conference with his post-E cleanup: We're not getting enough credit for all the good things happening, we were not clear enough on E guide about the strength of our biz, too reliant on what competitors $JNJ and $ALC projected in cautious guide, we're taking share, and called the stock price drop "irritating" esp. since they did first buybacks in awhile at $75.60. Gave me confidence in continuing bounce trade and LT.
- MongosPawn: $COO Took a small starter for a swing. Tight stop.
- joelsg1: @MongosPawn $COO Fingers and toes crossed.
- joelsg1: $COO This is Day 3 off the crushing reaction to what were decent E, reaction to their slight tightening of growth in contact lens segment, but taking share from competitors. Mgmt. said they were being cautious with guide and the reaction was brutal. They have a chance to clean up Thurs. am at William Blair conference. If I were not long from way, way below I might not bother since way below the 200d 'where nothing good happens'. But I'm trading for a bounce from $65 this am to perhaps $75.
- joelsg1: $COO Beat and slight raise and got crushed, but cautious mgmt. guided to $4.05-4.11 for rest of year. Stock replacement with $80 calls worked for the replacing, not for the calls. But crushed beyond reason, so playing for the bounce with 59er or longer from $66.
- marklesparkle: @joelsg1 $COO Yes I had some 85C but real small and they are damn near maxed out so I might as well hold now and roll later if prudent but it looks like the market as we know it of the crowd doesn't like it for the past 4 months
- joelsg1: @marklesparkle $COO They hate it this morning, but E was OK, mgmt. talked next 2 Qs should be strong, max tariff effect of only $4M offset by FX to some degree, and they bought back shares at avg. $75.60 (which I don't recall them doing for awhile). I may be clouded by nostalgia and the chart is sick, but it's down about twice the implied move so worth putting the toe in.
- marklesparkle: @joelsg1 $COO Think I maybe could wait until Monday and then roll the bitches haha but tyhank you for the good info. Where is the best stock news feed that you know
- :
- marklesparkle: @joelsg1 $COO Thank you
- joelsg1: $COO I made a fortune with this over past 2 decades, my cost basis is $6, so much that I trimmed every year to try and manage huge capital gains such that it is no longer a top holding, and it has been painful that this once market darling growing de ...
- marklesparkle: @joelsg1 $COO Its also in a daily squeeze @joelsg1 according to my TC2000 TTMSqueeze
- joelsg1: $AMGN On this dirty no-good rotten day, some green, my healthcare $AMGN, $GPCR, $VKTX and $COO into E tonight (implied move $5.50).
- Bert953: @joelsg1 $AMGN $GPCR $VKTX $COO Just got to my desk a few min ago. even though FINVIZ shows the 4 indexes above the opening print, looking at a few watchlists, they were a sea of red. The 2 starter positions I took yesterday were stopped out. As I said yesterday, not really a surprise. Lets see what exciting revelations, along with shock and awe come over the weekend. Not planning on doing anything til next week.
- joelsg1: $COO Moving up through the 200d, up $10 in 10 days, E 3/6, legacy holding for me since $6 formerly my largest holding (High quality problem, mea culpa for me to dwell on huge cap. gains and reluctant to do more than trim and sell covered calls instead of reacting stronger to price action). But...this is a steady upper single digit grower which is uniquely tied to currency, as dollar is debased this will grow. Doing some stock replacement, selling shares and buying $100 calls. Baird analyst at $117.
- joelsg1: $DECK 6-1 split effective today, np. This is a test as posts not registering. I see that others having trouble last 3 months, but I'm up over 10% thanks to concentration in some LT holdings like $COO, $TSLA.
- joelsg1: $COO $CRWD $NVDA Been selling upside October otm covered calls on these and most of my long stock pos. One way to raise cash into expected declines.
- joelsg1: $COO Beat, raise and breakout for this legacy pos from single digits (post-split).
- joelsg1: @DAN $COO breaking out here (though I'm concerned about IVF lawsuits for defective fluid).
- shoredriver: $SOUN..$COO...$ZS....report after....
- joelsg1: $COO Selling more, as explained yesterday.
- joelsg1: $COO Spent the day trying to deal with a trifecta plumbing problem and selling half of this LT large legacy holding into the 4-1 stock split today. Had a 14-bagger so I'm funding the govt for a second or 2. My thinking on stock splits has evolved over the decades: used to think it was a positive as more investors could afford round lots, but lately thinking more shares make it easier to borrow and short. Also, noticed a story late last week in NY Times that their IVF business late last year shipped defective media that lacked magnesium and caused stored embryos to die, and plaintiffs' lawyers are circling. Never a good look, see $JNJ.
- joelsg1: $COO Trades inverse to dollar, so as $UUP drops, this goes up. Legacy long for me, though my short calls for tomorrow will probably trigger.
- joelsg1: $COO E tonight, est $3.49, implied move about $18. Legacy long from $26 cost so major tax consequences from trimming, prefer selling upside calls around E to generate income, sold next weeks $360s just above 200d because of strong dollar impact on foreign sales, inverse relation between this one and dollar.

scottrades: ...
$COO Small flag
$ABT Moving averages are close by
Bitcoin’s correlation to the NASDAQ has lessened over the past few weeks. We’re seeing that today with it up and the tech sector down. Watch the Bitcoin stocks to follow if it sees more ... - vitoB: @scottrades $QQQ $ACLS $MDB $RCL $WDAY $ONON $CROX $MNDY $COO $ABT … maybe too much credit. $AAPL pop on AI news was almost like a ‘froth bell’ for the market
- joelsg1: $COO E tonight, est. $3.03 on $866M revs, as longtime legacy holder don't expect much upside, if any, but will benefit from dollar ease during reported Q. Implied move about $19, short covered calls above that.
- joelsg1: $COO Beat and raise E but down ah as expected though much less than implied move. Consistent grower, but key for me was accrual into op. expense of a nearly $1 per share termination fee to get out of the purchase of Cook Medical. Mgmt. said original $875M deal will not close, to me a big deal since w/o that one-time fee and if I read it correctly, blowout E.
- joelsg1: $COO Citi ups target to $430 from $372, seems aggressive. Legacy long.
- joelsg1: $COO Through that $360 level noted, too long to add.
- joelsg1: $COO Posted occasionally about what used to be my largest legacy holding, had a bunch of upside covered calls exercise lately and don't want any more for tax reason, so rolled up/out all upside covered calls over past weeks, all for credit. Defying reason at forward P/E of 28, looks like a bo above $360. Next E 6/1.
- joelsg1: $COO Low volume move continuing, taking partial profits.
- joelsg1: $COO Still climbing, still selling covered upside calls May $370s.
- joelsg1: $COO Large legacy holding is defying market gravity and levitating above 200d. E 2 weeks ago just ok, Fx, capex and debt service headwinds. But cup and handle expanding into upward channel. Sold upside covered calls into next year and I think this will pb to at least the 20d which is where I cover. Super low volume on both stock and options, but that's my trade.
- joelsg1: $COO $MSFT $AAPL Sold upside covered calls on each into next year above 200d lines.
- joelsg1: $COO Another really LT holding, formerly my largest though I've trimmed alot this year. E tonight and if past is prologue, this will drop on steady earnings but large FX headwinds. On 20d now, could go to $285ish tomorrow. Thin options market, but I've sold Feb. covered calls laddered upside to $350, so I'm fine either way.
- joelsg1: $COO E buffered by FX and slow global, as expected and stock down ah, maybe reach $285ish as posted. Hopefully it regroups, but I sold shares and loads of upside covered calls pre.
- joelsg1: $COO Sold Sept. otm covered calls, like I do every Q into E 8/31. Think this gets smacked by FX, more so than most.
- shoredriver: @joelsg1 $COO ....why not sell the other months?....
- joelsg1: @shoredriver $COO Incredibly thin options market, only real opportunity into E. For example, Sept. $350s sold for $4.20 each, and I'll continue on green days into 8/31.
- joelsg1: $BLCO Crushed today on drug patent ruling against parent $BHC, putting spinoff in severe jeopardy. Beneficiaries include the other contact lens makers, $JNJ, $ALC and $COO, still my largest pos. even after major trimming, due for run into E 8/31 ( after which expecting it to fall as FX headwinds disappoint). Always sell otm covered calls, but have to wait until closer to E for market demand.
- Docoof: @joelsg1 $BLCO $BHC $JNJ $ALC $COO Check out one you once mentioned after seeing it widely used at SpaceX in a video: $URI. —And feel free to comment. Currently—np.
- joelsg1: @Docoof $BLCO $BHC $JNJ $ALC $COO $URI Not sure that was me, but a construction play that our dear departed but still living @bRobert setup the short on 1 month ago and well before that. Still under the 200d and gapped above the 20w today. So if this is a change in character, might pb to 20w or even down to 50d and then reassess. Np.
- Docoof: @joelsg1 $BLCO $BHC $JNJ $ALC $COO $URI Thank you for the feedback and, in return, the incriminating evidence: “Agree, fantastic. Feel I have better insight into his management and production style, and thought processes, and think I want to do dd on $URI. Thanks” 2/10/2022 ;)
- joelsg1: @Docoof $BLCO $BHC $JNJ $ALC $COO $URI Yeah, but I didn't buy it.
- Docoof: @joelsg1 $BLCO $BHC $JNJ $ALC $COO $URI I know, but you’re like EF Hutton: when you post, people listen.
- joelsg1: @Docoof $BLCO $BHC $JNJ $ALC $COO $URI Uh oh, they're defunct, and as I recall a bunch of crooks with a TV commercial.
- joelsg1: $COO Rolling today's short itm calls up and out.
- joelsg1: $COO As expected and posted 10% drop post-E so all my short covered calls should hopefully expire worthless next Friday. If holds $385, sets up for next Q run to early June. Dependable in that regard.
- joelsg1: $COO Small beat and raise E last night, Have large legacy stock pos. with long term cap gains and write otm covered calls each Q because usually sells off post-E. Didn't happen, flat today, company sells internationally and therefore will get hammered by rising dollar, and 30 P/E is rich, but stock steady so those calls in play for another 2 weeks. Piper raised to $500 today. P.S. Now up $7 above first laddered short call, fine either way.
- joelsg1: $COO Sold Mar. $430 covered calls against stock, E Thurs. usually declines after. Long time long.
- joelsg1: $COO Long large legacy holding, sell covered calls for income every month and twice on E months, E 3/3 so as my Feb. covered calls expire worthless today (and that's the goal, though being called away OK too) sold Mar. 420s.
- joelsg1: @Lou $VIAC Thought about adding to LEAPs spreads but got busy with $AMGN and $COO today.
- joelsg1: $COO Sold Jan. $430 covered calls. This is a good time to sell upside otm covered calls against long term (for cap. gains) stock. Only 5 trading days left after today since Monday Federal holiday. Market writ large Fed. inflation worries, even saw the loaded term "stagflation" bandied about. Do this for income, not expecting exercise but if it does, take the profit while lightening up.
- joelsg1: $COO Guggenheim raises to $495. Pushing HOD. Long.
- joelsg1: $COO Still working 7 up days in row. Completed big H&S top and almost immediately after smaller inverse H&S bounce which could go up another $50 to ATH. Only 50M shares outstanding. HOD-L.
- joelsg1: $COO HOD-L.
- joelsg1: $OCDX This invitro diagnostic being acquired by $QDEL for $6B, $24.68 per share, 1 year after taken public. Bodes well for my large legacy holding $COO which recently added full suite IVF product portfolio to steady growing contact lens business. $COO in midst of comeback, sitting on converging 50d/200d and 50w, with inverse H&S completed. Only 50M share float for $COO.
- Coolex: @joelsg1 $OCDX $QDEL $COO Like this one!! Kudos on catching the musk flight before it took off.
- joelsg1: $COO Added in IRA account, expect ramp into E 12/2 to continue, despite yesterday's drop on acquisition news. Company in quiet period until E, so no narrative, but mgmt smart.
- joelsg1: $COO My largest longtime holding, from low double-digits, getting killed today down 5% on their acquisition of privately held fertility treatment provider. No wonder, press release says they're spending $1.6B to acquire and deal accretive to earnings only $0.30 in first year. I'm sure there's more to it, but those numbers sound awful. Was making a strong run into E 12/2, above converging 50d and 100d averages and bouncing off 50w, but no more. Now, they have some 'splaining' to do, now and on E call. Good thing I sold upside otm calls, but once properly explained, this should recover quickly.
- joelsg1:
- joelsg1: $COO Nice beat and flattish guidance, up minimally ah. Sold otm covered calls look good (to expire otm).
- joelsg1: $COO selling otm covered calls as always do before earnings, tomorrow.
- joelsg1: $COO Bounced back to another ATH on WFC analyst target raise to $480. Running into 9/2 earnings. Long but trimming into strength.
- joelsg1: $COO ATH. Running into earnings 9/2 (when if history repeats, it will sell off). Long longtime.
- joelsg1: $COO Trimmed some more after big (for this) 8% move on volume (for this) yesterday. Earnings 9/2.
- joelsg1: $COO Boom ATH. China approved their myopia management lens.
- Louis Berg: $COO, $CORE,$DDS, $LORL, $NHTC, $PLTR, $SONO
- joelsg1: $COO Trimming a bit more above 420 as we ramp into earnings 9/2 (when it will probably drop if pattern holds). Still largest and longest holding by far, but too many eggs in this basket.
- joelsg1: $COO Trimmed some into strength, earnings 1st week September.
- scottrades: Some #earnings for the week $APPS $CGC $ZM $CRWD $DOCU $AI $AVGO $BNS $SPLK $AAP $HPE $LULU $EXPR $CLDR $AMBA $STNE $TTC $GHM $MDLA $QTNT $CHPT $NTAP $DOOO $CIEN $MDB $LE $FIVE $SUMO $ESTC $DCI $DLTH $LX $NX $WORK $SMAR $TLYS $CTIC $SJM $ASAN $COO $PVH $ITI
- joelsg1: $COO Run into earnings 6/3; 450 target Jeffries, largest pos. but thinly traded.
- joelsg1: $MSFT $AMGN $COO Trimming all for tax cash.
- joelsg1: $COO Another ATH. My largest, longest pos. If I really thought LT cap gains taxes were going up as much as yesterday's old news' report (I don't) and that it would be retroactive to include this year (ditto), then I should sell to lock in the 20% and then immediately rebuy to create a new, higher basis, but then I would incur immediate cash drain in the form of higher estimated tax payments into a big check 4/15/22 vs an unlikely possibility. So, a little trimming into this strength, but that's it for now. Btw, this one continues higher as eye doc office traffic recovers and kids are brought into company's exclusive myopia management lens.
- joelsg1: $COO ATH, trimming, largest position forever.
- joelsg1: $COO Trimming near ATH.
- joelsg1: $VUZI Near ATH post earnings; C. Wood fave and they're booking deals for their smart spectacles, including warehouse at my largest longtime holding $COO. Don't know how $GOOGL is not dominating this burgeoning market, but they're not.
- joelsg1: $COO ATH. Earnings 3/4. Latest targets 435 Piper, 425 Key. My largest and longtime holding. Beneficiary of falling dollar, which may reverse, and reopening eye docs and women's health offices.
- Lou: Added to $IHAK $TSCO $COO $CCI at current levels. Comfortable with these names as LT holdings.
- joelsg1: $COO ATH. Btw, wife and I received first Moderna jab yesterday at a County-run drive through site, minor arm soreness but nothing else. 2nd jab due 28 days later. No reason for pre-jab worries.
- sierramp: @joelsg1 $COO Congratulations! A nurse friend told me some have reactions to the first vaccine, others to the second. I hope neither of you have reactions to #2.
- joelsg1: @sierramp $COO #2 So far, so good, and feel fortunate.
- FABrown: @joelsg1 $COO - I'm in healthcare and received my 2nd Jab yesterday, 1st jab - 5 days post minor aches, slight headache, mild fever all went away on day 3. 2nd jab - sore arm today but was expecting this. Side note - if a batch has huge negative reactions it's recalled and destroyed.
- joelsg1: @FABrown $COO Felt good about the process. Nurse administering jab actually had to wait a bit for vaccine to warm before injection, so cold storage appears proper.
- joelsg1: $COO Trimmed a bit as it approaches ATH, still largest position by far and for long time.
- joelsg1: $COO ATH, again.
- joelsg1: $COO ATH. Largest legacy holding from long ago, but post occasionally about.
- joelsg1: $COO Up big today to ATH because of comments CEO made at JPM conference yesterday that they had done better over holidays than last forecast. Analysts starting with JPM Marcus will have to raise targets.
- joelsg1: $COO Running into earnings next Thursday, when it will likely sell off the implied move approx 25 (if options market active). But probably at least 10+ left in move above 50d. Never much volume confirmation and small float. My largest long time holding.
- joelsg1: @bRobert $ARCB $R $YRCW $UPS $FDX Here’s one for you, $COO my largest long time holding. What do you think of this ladle pattern? Handle still apply?
- bRobert: @joelsg1 $ARCB $R $YRCW $UPS $FDX $COO Extended short term but looks good Targets $375 - $425.
