Blue Apron!!! I posted a week ago or so that this beaten up
stock had great potential to move with the Coronavirus and people
seeking food and delivery. It's popping today.
My personal tgt charts for now, Short term SPY has met my
targets, see how things play out tomorrow am to get a better idea
of the bias. Things can change on a dime with Fed pumping
liquidity but these are my targets going into this week. I
threw in the SPY Monthly as my long term tgt, right now my bias is
still bearish and this may take into beginning of May to play out
for the 4th wave down tgt area. High statistical probability
see a corrective bounce up through April. GDP data comes out
on April 29th, we could see a big revision with Coronavirus and get
that last leg down to Wave 4 target then. If we do get down
to wave 4, should be a buy of the ages for the next ramp up for the
final 5/5. Just my two cents.
I do believe we get a retest of some sort tomorrow into Tuesday
to set a bear trap. If it gaps up Monday and hits the
280 region, I will put on a short day trade (higher risk) or if it
breaks below the new channel at $269, then a more aggressive short
position. But only day trades. The Fed has made it
clear that they will be buying the market so I think the easy money
has been made already on the short side.
With Antiviral drugs, Time is of the essence. You have
a window of the first 24-36 hours. Ex. Tamiflu.
Before the viral load gets too high in the body. The real
need is that every state has to have the ability to test people at
every clinic, office, etc.. If you have to send out a test and it
takes 3 days to get back results, you have missed that window of
opportunity to treat with an antiviral (at least giving the best
odds of working). You have to weigh out the risk/reward ratio
with any drug. If the drug causes liver toxicity (is it acute
or chronic). Ex. If you drink heavily one night
(alcohol) then you will have acute liver toxicity. That
doesn't mean your live will go on to fail. Your liver is one
of the few organs that cells can reproduce/repair new cells.
So, if you have a person that is high risk and could die from
the Coronavirus, I would say that the reward is higher than risk to
take the antiviral. There is no "one size fits all" when
treating complex cases/co-morbidity. And 12 patients does not
make for a great study, your "P" values will not be too good.
Just the same as bascktesting, the more data you have
the better you can test your system. Now, we are in new
territory with this novel virus, so sometimes you have work with
what you have at the moment until proven otherwise. The
private sector is the only one that will bring about different
solutions to fight this virus, not the government ( recent test kit
debacle).
LRN. Got into this stock yesterday.
Online education. With all schools cancelling and going
to online education for the students for now. Nice pop so
far.
The need oil above $50. Although I am sure they were
heavily short before they dropped the mother of all bombs Sunday
right before futures began trading. Not good actors in my
opinion.
Time to take the week off. Kids have spring break and off
to Taos New Mexico to ski (no reported cases of Coronavirus in that
state yet, so cross my fingers). Matt and Steve please push
the markets up while I am gone, so I can count my money on
Friday.
