Stocks to Watch - 3/23/09 - Stock Market Ideas
Financial Bear ( FAZ ) - FAZ was strong all day, just look at the 1 day chart! Money was flowing out of the financials which caused Financial Bull ( FAS ) stock to retrace. FAZ is the only stock I own right now and it was inching up in after market trading as news came out of the seizure of two big credit unions. The fact that all major averages closed weak on Friday point to a lower opening for Monday. On FAZ stock, I have a tight stop at $31 and will most likely switch back into FAS. Keep in mind, these are trading stocks....not so much buy and hold!
Pier 1 Imports ( PIR ) - $.30 Up 87.50% - PIR released earnings in after hours on Friday - Pier 1 could shut 80 stores as it posts losses.
Citigroup ( C ) - Should you buy Citigroup stock? If you are thinking about buying Citi on Monday, use a tight stop at $2.40. $2.40 was the low on Friday and is also a major support level. If $2.40 is broken things could get ugly! On the upside, if $2.82 is broken, C stock could be on the way back to $3.00
American International Group ( AIG ) - Do you buy AIG stock? - Personally, I wouldn't, there are much better stocks out there such as energy related stocks like EOG Resources ( EOG ), Chesapeake Energy ( CHK ), or Transocean ( RIG ). Natural Gas finally looks like it has bottomed so you might look at UNG stock. If you really want to buy AIG, use a tight stop at $1.20 or Friday's low of $1.06. On the upside, if $1.45 is broken ( Friday's High ) AIG could get a bounce.
Fannie Mae ( FNM ) & Freddie Mac ( FRE ) - FNM stock has support between $0.55 & $0.60, so if you really must buy FNM, I'd wait for this price. However, a break below $0.50 could get ugly! On FRE stock, it is the same game plan because both FRE and FNM have identical charts. Just remember, FRE and FNM are penny stocks for a reason!
