Charles Moskowitz Discussion
We Have 3 Long Open Positions:
PFE Dec 34 Calls
TLT Dec 119 Calls and
UAL Dec $ 62.50 Calls
Funds in Use = $1,236
The losses on NE and TWTR were actually the second half of trades from the week before that were taken out on the 100% Up rule. This left us with overall profits in both trades. Funds in use are $1236.
The attacks in Paris should generate some well- deserved anxiety and along with that generally comes international purchases of Gold and some of the miners. As Mike points out in the Fundamental section later in this letter, this is also a time of the year for a rally in the metals. I will determine the best way to trade the gold or silver after I see what the futures are doing overnight.
The Democratic debate was kind of a nonevent. To me, it differs dramatically from the Republicans in that they may have to go with someone other than Jeb Bush. I am really surprised at his lack of ability to take any aggressive stand on the issues. I can’t believe that Trump or Carson have any real shot at the nomination, but the overall suspension of what we have come to know as a political belief favors an outsider. Let’s hope something changes soon…
Early in the week we went long the bonds (TLT) and it seems to be working. I was on this side of the market when nobody else could see anything but higher rates back In November of last year. Technically we had a temporary top around 152 (Dec 30-yr Contract) after a rally from 142. We than had pullback and then we broke out to a massive move to 166 in just 3 weeks.
I have said repeatedly that these are moves that used to take months or years, but these markets are no longer bound by time. After coming back down to consolidate in the 148-152 area we had several closes all around that magic number..152. Three weeks ago I said that if we broke 156 we would test 152, and this area again looks to me to be very important. If the trend line beginning in January 2014 holds we could see a test of 156 or higher.
The political issues tend to cause a flight to safety in both Gold and US treasuries. We are already long the bonds and we will look for the gold trade early in the week…..CAM

For those of you who do not buy puts to protect your portfolio, there are many ETF’s that are the inverse of the DOW. The symbols are DOG, DXD, SDS,TZA and RWM, which go up when the DOW, S&P 500 and Russell 2000 go down and down when they go up. The DZZ goes up double when gold goes down.

There were no closed out stock positions:
For the year to date we have gains of $ 21,907.
Open position losses in the stock account increased by $ 1,813 to $ 16,109.
The options expire on the third Friday of each Month unless otherwise posted.
The Stock table has the following 17 positions:
AA, BAC.B.WS, BSBR( 2 ), CRM, CUBA, FCX, MOS,
NBG (3), REPR, SAN, SPXU (2), TEXQY, TWTR
The options call for a $ 2,500 investment unless otherwise stated; each stock position requires $5,000 unless otherwise mentioned specifically.
We are basing money management on a hypothetical
$ 100,000 and are using a total of
$ 61,721 for the 17 open stock positions. There are two long option positions requiring
$ 2,480 which added to the stock longs totals an outlay of
$ 64,201 leaving
$ 28,402 in cash.
The two long open options positions in the table below are: 12 PFE and 8 TLT Calls.
These figures are approximate and there might be errors.
We have not counted the dividends received from Apple, JP Morgan, North American Tankers, Santander, their Brazil affiliate BSBR and Blue Capital Reinsurance which was sold for a profit and many others.
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
After making a seasonal high of 2116.48 on November 3rd the S&P 500 has slid seven of the past eight trading days to 2023.04, a decline of 4.4%. Last week alone it fell 3.63%. The Nasdaq, previously the leading index was the worst last week falling 4.26%, down 219.24 points to 4927.88. The Dow closed at 17,245 for a loss of 665 points or 3.7% while the Russell 2000 fell 53 points or 4.43% to 1146.55. Meanwhile, the DJ Transportation average was the best acting of all the misery down the least, 2.80% holding at 8010 off 231 points.
Top line revenues have not kept up with even lackluster earnings which together with the election year typical weakness could cause concern as the market seeks another support level. Crude oil prices collapsed 8% last week which makes a decline of more than 16% for the month of November.
Treasuries rallied on weak economic data, a dovish ECB and plummeting oil prices. Economic data continued very weak exacerbated by an extension of the two-week sell off in the stock market. Retail Sales, Core Retail Sales, the PPI and the Core PPI all missed expectations. The possibility of a deposit rate cut at the European central Bank’s December meeting also rose after comments from ECB President Mario Draghi last Thursday. The 10-year German Bund fell 14 basis points.
With the world bent on low rates and stocks in the doldrums, it appears to be the perfect time to buy Gold futures or just the GLD ETF. ( GLD: $ 103.55 ) The GLD November 20th 103 Call expires next Friday the 20th.It closed at 1.22. The December 18th 103 Call closed at 2.42 and that is the option we are recommending. Charles will put a trader’s touch to it.
Gold prices tend to move up prior to the holidays, and the trend has worked especially well over the last 15 years. Seasonally speaking, it is best for traders to go long about now up to about November 18 and hold until about December 3. Over the last 40 years, this trade has worked 22 times for a success rate of 55.0% .The cumulative profit tallies up to $25,990. Up until two years ago this trade had been profitable for 12 straight years (2000-2011). The longer-term history of this trade is not as good, nonetheless profitable. Gold has had another tough year, but this is a short-term trade and gold has become oversold and appears ready for a bounce.
Market Strategies Economic Data
Retail sales were up a weaker than expected 0.1% (Briefing.com consensus 0.3%), while sales, excluding autos, were up a weaker than expected 0.2% (Briefing.com consensus 0.4%). Results for September were revised lower with total sales unchanged (from 0.1%) and sales excluding autos revised to -0.4% (from -0.3%).Gasoline station sales declined 0.9%, auto and parts sales fell 0.5%, electronics and appliance store sales were down 0.4%, and food and beverage store sales were down 0.3%. Clothing and clothing accessories sales were flat after declining 0.1% in August.
Core retail sales, which exclude auto, gasoline station, and building material and supplies sales, were up 0.3% in October after being flat in September. Core retail sales factor into the goods component for personal consumption expenditures in the GDP report, so there is a little bit of good news here
The increase in retail sales trailed the robust 0.6% increase in aggregate earnings seen in the October employment report, suggesting consumers continue to show a propensity to save money and/or pay down debt versus spending it more liberally on goods.

The preliminary reading for the University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index for November showed an uptick to 93.1 from the final reading of 90.0 for October and 88.8 in the same period a year ago. The Briefing.com consensus expected a reading of 92.0. The improvement in November was driven by higher readings for both the Current Economic Conditions Index (to 104.8 from 102.3) and the Index of Consumer Expectations (to 85.6 from 82.1).
According to the chief economist for the survey, the overall increase was attributed to a stronger outlook for the domestic economy, which was fed by consumers anticipating somewhat larger income increases in 2016 and a somewhat lower inflation rate.
It was noted separately that buying plans for large discretionary items, especially vehicles, improved.
Consumer sentiment has little influence on consumption. As long as payroll levels continue to expand, the resulting income growth should keep consumption gains steady regardless of the monthly ebbs and flows in sentiment.

Market Strategies Cycles
Since the late September bottom, and shortly thereafter the Stock Traders’ Almanac Seasonal MACD Buy Signal emerged on October 5 and the market had vaulted higher. DJIA, S&P 500 and NASDAQ all reclaimed their respective 50- and 200-day moving averages. Today’s declines made a complete reversal putting the DJIA and S&P 500 back below their 200-day moving averages (solid red line in charts below). NASDAQ remains around 1% above its 200-day moving average. Stochastic, relative strength and MACD indicators have all plunged in the past few trading sessions, confirming the loss of upward momentum.
After a brief respite, the usual suspects of headwinds have reemerged. Greece, Puerto Rico very weak earnings and huge oil supplies are back in the headlines accompanied by the Fed’s desire to raise rates which in turn triggered the dollar to strengthen somewhat and commodities to stumble again. It still remains to be seen if the Fed will actually raise rates at its December meeting. Geopolitical events concerning the Isis and Europe have become an increasing headwind. The issue of the Fed is becoming a back-seat event to more troubling problems. Whether or not the Fed actual has to raise rates is still an open discussion, but if they did, it would remove one large uncertainty that has held the market in check for the better part of a year. At which point, it would not be surprising to see the market make another run at record highs sometime in Q1 or early Q2 2016.
Recent research suggesting a tepid November is being confirmed by the market this week. Following this year’s big October gain early November strength has faded and the market is likely to stumble along into December. Pre-election Novembers are also historically weak. With this in mind, the majority of positions in the portfolio are on hold for now. The market may provide a more attractive buying opportunity in coming weeks.

The infusion pump uses “dynamic equilibrium” which safely adjusts the flow of medication in accordance with what the patient’s body can accept. This minimizes complications often encountered with other infusion systems which can lead to site reactions and discomfort for the patient. The portability and simple operation of the FREEDOM60 Improves quality of life for patients who otherwise might have to use a complicated electronic pump mounted to a cumbersome infusion pole. Patients then don’t have to be confined.
RMS High-Flo Subcutaneous Safety Needle Sets are being welcomed by healthcare providers and patients alike for their consistently high quality. The infusion sets are an ideal companion for the company’s FREEDOM 60 pump. The needle sets are patented and approved by the FDA. There has not been a new technology in needles other than Repro Med’s vastly better needle sets in quite some time.
RES-Q-VAC is a hand-held suction pump used to clear a patient’s airway or for other purposes when reliable hospital quality suctioning is needed. It uses patented technology to protect users from airborne pathogens and spillage of suctioned material. It is used by emergency service personnel and other first responders, as well as in hospitals and other institutions. There also is a version for use by dentists. RES-Q-VAC is invaluable in the event of disasters where power is lost because it doesn’t require electricity.
The Freedom 60 Syringe Infusion System is a method for administering medication through a small needle to the subcutaneous tissue, which is the fatty tissue just under the skin. Subcutaneous infusion allows medication into the vascular system more slowly. Combined with more frequent delivery this provides more consistent and stable blood levels. The elimination of large swings in these levels decreases side effects improving overall quality of life. RMS provides High-Flo needles to optimize liquid flow. Their smaller 26 gauge high flow needle flows at the same rate as the considerably larger 24 gauge needles, which are considerably less painful when entering the skin.
The Freedom 60 has had great success in Europe reflected in a huge sales increase of 47.8% first quarter 2015 up from same quarter 2014.
Repro-Med Systems, Inc has had an increase in sales each of the last four years. They finished the year of 2014 with $ 11.2 million in sales reflecting top line growth of 29% from 2013.In each of the previous two years they had a 12% increase in sales. The company has had at least $ 700 thousand of net income in each of the past four years and has no debt. The patented needle sets alone can give the company a huge growth potential. In my opinion, with new products coming on stream, the stock should trade between $ 3 and $ 8 in the next two years.
Enzo Biochem ( ENZ 3.92 ) Bought at our price of $ 2.78.
This turbulent market has had an effect on the price of Enzo Biochem. The markets, in my opinion, have been in a rotating correction and in some instances, a bear market for some months. It appears that the cause of this is China but I am sure that there are other factors. If you remember the ‘flash crash” of 2010 the market correction was over quickly and those that held through that market decline profited handsomely over the years after the crash. I think that the market is giving us another chance to buy Enzo Biochem at a bargain price.
The Company’s fiscal year was over July 31. I would imagine the Quarter and Year results will be made available by mid-October. With the cash settlement in two litigations the cash position should show a major improvement. Top line revenues should also show an improvement. Depending on R&D expenses and litigation expenses the net loss should also show improvement. At today’s price of $2.90 the Company is valued at approximately $130 million and with revenues approaching $100 million or 1.3 times revenues.
The last Craig Hallum report had a fair value of Enzo’s business of $6 per share. When AmpiProbe is approved and into the market that number is projected at $14 per share. There is always risk in the market so the investment is not without risk but if held over time should deliver handsome profits off of today’s price. Items to look forward to by the end of the year would be litigation news and an AmpiProbe decision all of which should have a positive impact on the stock price.
ProtoKinetix, Incorporated ( PKTX: 0.09 8)
ProtoKinetix (www.protokinetix.com) trading at $ 0.0521 low and 0.0969 high on Friday has a huge upside potential. They are in collaboration with the James Shapiro laboratory at the University of Alberta. The sole intention of the collaboration is to develop a commercial product pipeline of therapeutic applications for the AAGP™ family of molecules.
Dr. Shapiro is presenting his work at a symposium in Australia tonight and we should see some reaction to his work…We will also try to have him give us an update to the story for our radio show in the next few weeks.
Professor James Shapiro is Professor of Surgery, Medicine and Surgical Oncology, and Director of the Clinical Islet Transplant Program and the Living Donor Liver Transplant Program at the University of Alberta in Edmonton, Canada. He has a busy hepatobiliary surgical practice in HPB oncology, and in liver and kidney-pancreas transplant surgery. His center carries out 80 liver transplants per year, and has done around 80 living donor liver transplants. The University of Alberta just celebrated their 1000th liver transplant.
Dr. Shapiro directs the largest clinical islet transplant program worldwide with almost 170 patients treated, and led the clinical team that developed the “Edmonton Protocol” – the first trial to achieve consistent 100% insulin independence in a series of islet-alone transplant recipients with Type 1 diabetes (published in the NEJM 2000). Before Dr. Shapiro’s trial, the success rate with islet transplantation was less than 8%. He led an international multicenter trial to replicate these findings in 9 international centers (published in NEJM 2006).
Over the last 32 months Dr. Shapiro and his team have been extensively testing the AAGP™ molecule in allogeneic transplants using human islet cells as the model. As regenerative medicine is rapidly becoming adopted in the treatment of degenerative diseases, the protection of the transplanted cells, tissues, and organs is of paramount importance. Transplanted cells and tissues are subjected to extreme stress factors that, unless protected, could cause failure to graft or premature death. The success of the tests conducted in Edmonton have demonstrated that AAGP™ has the potential to be widely adopted in many areas of regenerative medicine.
