aninsworth trading very well.....

homebuilders in states showed a tad bit of weakness yesterday, check the xhb index for the chart but they have led the recovery since 2011 but turned s/t negative for first time in 2 years... have the homebuilders topped out or taking a break? this also coincided with the cfp and wft moving below 50d moving averages recently.... all the while ainsworth continues to shrug off the weakness and hang around 4$.... very bullish piece in the latest "crunchers corner" by jennifer dowty in the investors digest.... she talks about all the wood and osb shares but specifically mentions ainsworth as a good performer that has lots more potential.... btw, dowty highlighted the fact that ainsworth was the largest western osb producer, as significant b/c of the proximity to asia... also, homes inventory numbers out soon in states could provide more impetus to move ans higher.... i am still looking for 5-6$ before the next quarterly report.... very bullish setup for osb imho.... glta

The risk still is in the downside given the overall market decline and the close below 1540 on the S&P today which is anticipated.  If the the market improves significantly, this goes higher but the risk on trade is that this may well be the last tree to fall.   Dow down 95 and S&P @1539.

They could be.  The numbers are crazy good.

DOW futures are selling off (down 135) but that can change overnight.  The earnings are not bad considering.  I think the market is getting some lofty expectations and that usually means bad things for a bull market.

Peace out.  Market is going lower and I am going short. I am shorting the S&P at the open and the DOW

when ans and the dow and the s$p are all up today, do you promise to go away and never bother us again with your stock advice???

Hes not giving stock advice. Its just doom and gloom, typical music played by bashers. Wait until Q-1 you will be rewarded well. JMHO

Nope.  Sell in May and go away starts in April.  You hold this stock over the summer at your peril.  Best time to short the market is on an up day.  Cheerio     The housing market has made a big comeback over the past year; home prices have surged some 8% and homebuyers can't seem to buy up properties fast enough. But just as quickly as the market is gaining ...more

What has happened is expectations are so high, whatever ANS reports won't be good enough.  Typical sign of a bull market tapping out.  I don't bash and I don't fall deeply in love with stocks like you.  They are vehicle to make money.  Once you loose that judgement, you are in for a rough ride especially in this market.
