The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed at 22,016 on 8/2/17, as the stock market continues to trade at record highs.  The stock market is heating up but a major correction can come at any time and has been long overdue.  I just updated my Good Stocks to Buy for 2018.

Shares of Tesla (TSLA) pulled back but continue to shine right now with the Model 3 launch.  TSLA, XON and HTGM are my top stocks to watch looking forward.   China 3x Bull (YINN) and Small Caps 3x Bull (TNA) are strong buys on all major pullbacks in 2017.

Below is a list of stocks to watch on Thursday.  These stocks are active and have the potential to break out this week.

Check out my Stock Picks for 2017 - Stocks to Buy 2018 - Best Penny Stocks 2018

Tesla (TSLA) - Tesla (TSLA) is seeing a slight pullback into earnings tonight.   Tesla (TSLA) is a strong buy below $290 on the next major correction.  All good news was priced into the stock above $360.  However, long term I see shares hitting $1,000 just like AMZN did.  They are getting ready to disrupt many different industries.

Intrexon (XON) - Intrexon (XON) is dropping ahead of earnings after hitting $27.  XON has been mentioned as the stock of the decade by early AMZN investor Bill Miller.  XON is a strong buy below $20 and that is what I plan to do.

Apple (AAPL) - Apple (AAPL) failed around $160 after reporting strong earnings.  I still view this stock as a strong sell above $150 because I feel there are better buys out there.  Apple shares are limited due to the size of the company.

IBM (IBM) - IBM continues to fall below $150 but is looking good for the long term.  This is the cheapest value tech stock for the money right now.

Small Cap Bull 3x (TNA) - TNA is trying to break out of the recent range between $50-$58.  I like shares in the $40's for the long term.

Shake Shack (SHAK) - Shake Shack (SHAK) failed around $39 recently and is dropping into earnings.  SHAK is a great long term stock to buy below $30!

Chipotle (CMG) - Chipotle (CMG) is now back above $350 again.  I view shares as a strong buy down below $400 but I'd rather own TSLA.
