| Market Summary (continued) Expiration Friday, weak-ish economic data, three-day weekend, trade talks to continue in DC next week, ECB talking new QE, the notion the Fed is done hiking rates and reducing the balance sheet. Pretty much market nirvana, particularly for those areas that lagged for fear of trade and a slowing global economy. Heck, even for stocks tied to the domestic economy. Futures posted a slow steady burn upside all pre-market, and stocks started upside, rallying for the first hour. A 4+ hour lateral stagnation (but no selling) then a sprint to the close the last half hour. That action fueled some strong gains and some not so strong gains. The spotlight focused on industrial stocks, financials, small caps. Even energy is showing signs of stirring. It was not techs or semiconductors, but those were hardly chopped liver. SP500 29.87, +1.09% NASDAQ 45.46, 0.61% DJ30 443.86, 1.74% SP400 1.18% RUTX 1.56% SOX 0.53% NASDAQ 100 0.47% VOLUME: NYSE -1%, NASDAQ +7%. Both exchanges posted average trade -- not blowout but solid enough ahead of a 3-day weekend. ADVANCE/DECLINE: NYSE +3.5:1, NASDAQ +2.6:1.

| 2) STOCK SPLIT REPORT Here's a pre-announcement play and our current analysis.
Company Profile EARNINGS: 02/26/2019 STATUS: Home-related stocks are showing new strength in this market, and HD is about as home-related as you can get. Friday the stock showed excellent strength, gapping through the 200 day SMA and rallying to close right at the session high. HD peaked in September, sold off into late December (nothing new there), forming an inverted head and shoulders from early November to late January. Nice breakout move Friday as it heads toward earnings a week from the Tuesday market reopening. We want to play a continued move higher toward the earnings with a target at the resistance from the summertime tops. That is a doable target ahead of earnings and lands a sold 80%ish gain on the call options. CHART VIDEO Volume: 4.998M Avg Volume: 4.34M BUY POINT: $192.64 Volume=4.8M Target=$203.96 Stop=$188.87 POSITION: HD APR 18 2019 190.00 C - (59 delta) Learn more about our Stock Split Report and how we have made gains of 321% with our powerful stock split plays!

CLF (Cliffs Natural Resources--$11.29; +0.04; optionable): Industrial metals Company Profile EARNINGS: 05/10/2019 STATUS: CLF is a stock we should play more because it usually makes us money when it sets up. After peaking in September, a run that made us 15% on the stock and 150% on the options, CLF sold off in a steady drop to the late December lows. It has built back since, and the past week put in a nice flag test to the most recent move in its 5 month cup base. Yes, we should have been in earlier on this move, but if it can make us money now, we will take it. Testing back to the 10 day EMA in a nice flag, looking for a new break higher to enter for the next run. A move to the prior high lands 12.5% on the stock, but if industrial stocks are getting new money it can go higher. If not, we take a nice gain there. If it goes on by, of course we let it. A move to the target lands a 20%ish gain on the stock, 100+% on the options. CHART VIDEO Volume: 11.678M Avg Volume: 11.423M BUY POINT: $11.55 Volume=17M Target=$13.88 Stop=$10.78 POSITION: CLF APR 18 2019 11.00 C - (58 delta) &/or Stock Save $600 per year and enjoy a 2 week trial of our IH Alerts Service! | ||
