Flashback

We are currently sitting on the sidelines until this market figures out if it wants to attempt to rally or test the March lows. We are a couple of weeks away from launching our new product, which will include daily video commentary showing you why we are looking at each stock we feature. Many of you have enjoyed a complimentary trial to our service, which will be coming to an end shortly. We want to use this time to point out a few of our winners over the last few months in a generally weak market environment. Hopefully, this will highlight how valuable our service is in any market.

The following stocks have at least doubled since we recommended them over the last few months. COIN, TITN, BZP, VISN, SOHU, XIDE, SD, PQ, CLR, MMR, EAC, ICO, SOL, and GTE.

The following stocks have appreciated at least 50% since we recommended them over the last few months. MRVL, ATVI, SD, ATAI, IDCC, SWSI, LL, MFLX, WAB, ERES, FSIN, FSYS, and NCOC.

We truly believe there isn't another service out there like ours and hope you continue to enjoy and profit from the Stock Playbook for many years to come. Thanks.

Growth Stocks

SWSI @ $20 (Superior Well Services) provides technical pumping and down hole surveying services for oil and gas fields through 19 service centers. Revenues have increased between 26% and 61% during the last four quarters. Earnings are expected to grow 34% this year and another 31% in 2009 to $2.86 a share. We are establishing half a position here and will enter the remaining half on a pull back to $18. Our stop loss will be set at $17.

Shorts

HANS @ $41.62 (Hansen Natural) manufactures alternative beverages including Monster energy drinks, fruit juices, soy smoothies and natural sodas. For those long time subscribers, this name brings back fond memories (check Flashback selection below). If you look at the weekly chart, it appears to be setting up a head and shoulders pattern. A move below $36.82 and we could be on our way to testing the $25 level. We are shorting half a position here and will add the remaining half on strength that brings the stock to the $45 level. Our stop will be set at $46.50.

Watch List

STV @ $21.26 (China Digital TV) looks impressive. We will nibble here and add to position on a pull back to $18. We're also still looking to get long Apple (AAPL) which may have its sights set on a move to $140 over the next week, hopefully on some weakness.

Current Portfolio

What are the chances of Mastercard closing at $200 next Friday, allowing us to book the entire profit on our MA $200 Straddle that we established on 2/25/08. We like our chances.

Flashback

On 3/23/04 we wrote that our favorite pick was:

HANS @ $11.25 (Hansen Natural) markets and sells alternative beverages including natural sodas, fruit juices, smoothies and "functional drinks". Management owns 43% of the stock and they are stating to take shelf space away from the big boys like Pepsi and Coke. the stock started rallying in the middle of January and reached an all time high of $15 last week. It traded above $14 yesterday and then sold off with the market closing at $11.25. With Americans becoming more health conscious, this is a nice addition to our Top Ten List.

Adjusting for a 2 for 1 split on 8/9/05 and another 4 for 1 split on 7/10/06, our cost average on our original purchase was $1.40 a share. We sold stock all the way up, but on 6/22/06 we cashed out of final position at $175 a share and then went SHORT, just before their 4 for 1 split for a 3,025% return. One ecstatic client sent us his confirms and made $338,000.00, a nice chunk of change, but even more impressive was that he bought the stock for less than $12,000. Obviously he made more money than us because he held the whole way up. Anyway before we get sidetracked, on 7/6/06 we wrote:

HANS @ $205.35 (Hansen Natural) is our only short in the portfolio right now and we will add to our short position on this recent strength, because we feel HANS is getting a little long in the tooth and priced for perfection. We think a 50% retracement is in order and will use the recent strength to add to our short position.

Over the next week to three months, we covered our HANS short for another 50% return. You can visit www.TheStockPlaybook.com and search our archive section for HANS and see all these trades. Our point isn't to gloat, although it can't hurt in this market, but to stress everyone has a stock that they are just in tune with and HANS is that stock for me. We are SHORTING it now, as listed above.
