There are three open positions:
KIRK July 20 Calls, FCX July 35 Calls, CLDX July 16 Calls
Funds in Use $ 1586
Gain for the week $ 264
YTD Gain $ 439
On Thursday I re-entered the position in CLDX on the pullback from just over $18 back to just over $16. This is a position that generated over $700 in gains from a starting position of only $420 over a two week period. When I find a stock that has well defined risk parameters based on support and resistance areas I use it as long as it will let me. A break above last week’s high of $18.12 and then over $18.52 could move us toward the 200-day moving average of $22 or so.
This market is not as easy to trade as some might think. As I mentioned in the letter dated June 9th:
“It is difficult to quantify risk in a market that continues to march higher week after week but it is even tougher to stand aside as gains continue.”
This continues to be the case with the S&P 500 and since that note has moved from $1925 up to $1955, back down to $1925 for a 3 day rest and now back up to the new closing high of $1962.87.
Also mentioned in last week’s letter I still believe that there is more upside in the T-Bond prices.
I called for it to be a core position. One might then ask why last week’s gain came on the sale of TLT calls? While that might seem like a contradiction, this is a “trading” account. The bonds, even more than the stock market are news sensitive and last week was no exception.
After the Fed news we sold the calls @ $1.26 they continued up over $1.30 and then traded back down to $ .65. While the price may move from “the lower left to the upper right” it doesn’t go in a straight line.

Recommendations And Overall Comments
1) BUY 8 TLT JULY 110 CALLS @ 1.19 OB
2) BUY 6 FB JULY 65 CALLS @ 1.53 OB
We closed out Shares of INSM, INO, AGQ, RNN
and an option position last week for
a gain of $ 2,140
Profits for the year rose to $ 3,517
For the full year 2013 we had realized gains of $ 53,556.
We have open position losses now of about $6,264.00 some of which are in coal stocks and small cap bio-med stocks held over from last year.
We also have not counted dividends received on stocks like Apple, Nordic American (NAT) and JP Morgan.
We have three long options positions:
FCX July 35 Calls; CLDX July 16 Calls and KIRK July 20 Calls.
The Stock table has the following 19 positions:
AA, AAPL, BOOM; GRPN, GLXZ; GSG, FCX,
HERO, HL, NBG (3), OSIR, REPR, RPTP, SPXU, TEXQY, WLT, XRGYF
The options call for a $ 2,500 investment unless otherwise stated; each stock position requires $5,000 unless specifically stated.
We are basing money management on a hypothetical
$ 100,000 and are using
$ 3,172 in three options positions and
$ 68,860 in 19 stock positions totaling
$ 72,032 with
$ 27,968 in cash.
These figures are approximate. We do not count commission costs and there may be errors.
Executions that have occurred at or near the open or close of trading sometimes vary from our actual numbers. For example, when something opens down and it is through our price, we take the next trade whether it is an uptick or continues lower. This sometimes results in a 50% trade that is slightly above or below the exact number.

Market Strategies Fundamentals
Corporate acquisitions continued to dominate the news. A competition for the energy assets of French industrial firm Alstom accelerated as the rivals wooed the French government, which will have a key role in approving any deal. General Electric is competing with German industrial firm Siemens and Japan’s Mitsubishi Heavy Industries for the energy assets of Alstom. All three continued making bids and counterbids through the week, working hard to win the approval of Prime Minister Hollande and his cabinet. Alstom’s board is expected to make a decision Monday, 23 June.
Package-delivery giant FedEx reported a sharply higher profit for its fiscal fourth quarter from a year earlier, when it had taken a large write-down on a business realignment program. Revenue for the quarter rose 3.5%. FedEx predicts this year’s results will be even better.
During the week, the S&P 500 Index climbed to new highs. Volatility continued to ease: The so-called fear index — the Chicago Board Options Exchange Market Volatility Index — fell to its lowest level since early 2007. The price of gold rose, along with Brent crude oil on concerns in the Mideast turmoil.
The National Association of Home Builders’ confidence index rose four points to a seasonally adjusted 49 in June. The first monthly rise in 2014 is a sign of improving sentiment. However the index remains below the 50 threshold, indicating that more builders see the market in a negative light.
While housing starts remained at just over 1 million on an annualized basis for the second straight month they fell 6.5% in May, the first decline in four months. Perhaps weather related, but a decline nevertheless.
At its June meeting the Fed decided to continue the steady unwinding of its monthly bond-buying program (known as QE) and held to its longer-term commitment to keep interest rates low at its meeting. The housing market is expected to improve in the coming months on demand from steady job growth and low interest rates.

Market Strategies Economic Data
The Philadelphia Federal Reserve Bank’s business activity index, which covers factory activity in eastern Pennsylvania, southern New Jersey and Delaware, rose much higher than expected.
New orders soared, employment improved and expectations of business conditions six months from now leapt higher. The Conference Board’s leading indicators index rose for the fourth straight month in April. And the Fed reported that manufacturing output rose solidly with widespread improvement.
US initial claims for unemployment benefits fell by 6,000 to a seasonally adjusted 312,000 for the week ended 14 June. The four-week rolling average dropped by 3,750 to 311,750. The number of workers drawing continued unemployment benefits fell by 54,000 to a seasonally adjusted 2.56 million. The unemployment rate for people collecting jobless benefits fell to 1.9% in the week ended 7 June, the lowest since October 2007.
The CPI report for May was up 2.1% year-over-year and core CPI, which excludes food and energy indicated a rise 2.0% year-over-year. Fed Chair Janet Yellen described the data as being “noisy in her press conference. During July, the June employment report will be watched for any growth in average hourly earnings. Over the past five years there has been none as seen in the chart below. Perhaps a key reason why inflation and GDP growth have trended below their long-term averages for the better part of the past five years. Which is also reflected in the high level of the 10 year inflation adjusted P.E ratio (commonly known as the Shiller P.E) which is currently at 26.2, above historical mean average of 16 to17.
Market Strategies Cycles
According to the Stock Trader’s Almanac, the worst two-consecutive quarters of the four-year presidential election cycle could be better than average. Markets have broken free of the typical midterm year pattern since 1950 and now appear to be tracking the Sixth Year of Presidential terms more closely.
July Sector Seasonality (Stock Trader’s Almanac)
“One sector begins its favorable seasonality in the month of July, Gold & Silver based upon the Philadelphia Gold and Silver index. The Transport sector begins its seasonally weak period in July. As of this writing, there is still no Bear/Short ETF available that directly focuses on the Transport sector to take advantage of its seasonal weakness. No official trade will be made in the ETF portfolio. However, option traders could consider put options on iShares DJ Transportation (IYT) as it has a reasonably deep chain.
On the other hand, Gold & Silver offer numerous possibilities to trade. Because gold, silver and the companies that mine and explore for the metals have been significantly beaten down over the past month and are within striking distance of their respective 52-week lows, a diversified approach will be taken. As seasonal gold and silver strength begins, we will look to own both the physical metals and the miners at attractive prices. Global X Silver Miners (SIL), iShares Silver Trust (SLV), Market Vectors Gold Miners (GDX), SPDR Gold (GLD) can all be bought on dips below their respective buy limits (listed below in the ETF Portfolio). Should the buy limit for SLV be reached, we will simultaneously add SLV to the portfolio and sell ProShares UltraShort Silver (ZSL).
SIL top five holdings include: Silver Wheaton, Fresnillo, Primero Mining, Fortuna Silver Mines and Industrias Penoles. GDX top five holdings include: Goldcorp, Barrick Gold, Newmont Mining, Silver Wheaton and Newcrest Mining. SLV and GLD are physically backed ETFs that hold the actual metal in storage. GDX, GLD and SLV have billions of dollars in assets and trade millions of shares per day on average. SIL however, has assets of $206.7 million and daily trading volume around 200,000 shares per day, substantially less, but still sufficient to trade.”
