Charles Moskowitz Discussion
We have 1 open long position:
AAPL September 106 Puts
Funds in Use $ 620
Week 36 can be summed up in very short order, boring without much action for us and the
most minor of gains ($6). YTD now stands at $7,511 with only one position in YRCW puts
(paid $1.55 closed $245) using $620.
We had both a 100% Up rule liquidation on Tuesday followed by a 50% Down rule trade both in AAPL. Unfortunately we didn’t need the upside balance of the SPY calls and also got stopped out on a 50% Down also. I didn’t make any late week trades with the exception of a counter-trend play in AMBA in the $100,000 account since it is not particularly a market participant, was dramatically oversold, and I believe it had a reversal day on Friday. The options account could not participate since the options are not only overpriced bat also have zero liquidity.
There was nothing of note on any of the Sunday morning show with the exception of the presidential candidates new polling results. Like Xmas ads in October, I think it’s a little early for this traveling circus have much meaning yet. The only other issue discussed was the horrendous refugee problems in Europe. Not an easy one to solve, but the distances traveled from Africa and Syria by these families is amazing to me. The lack of EU participation and aid is appalling.
As far as the market goes, while we might have seen a bottom on Monday 8/24, I’m not so
sure we have seen the bottom. If you have followed this letter and commentary over the past 5 years or so, you would note that whenever we get this kind of “vertical” action, we need to see some “horizontal” action to define risk/reward parameters. This means that we might not take advantage of all the bounces and reversals but we do slow down and watch as things develop.

Market Strategies Fundamentals
The S&P 500 led all indexes lower last week losing 67.65 points or 3.40% to 1,921.22.
The Dow Jones fell 541 points or 3.25% to 16,102.38. The Nasdq index fell 144 points or
2.99% to 4,683.92. while the Russell 2000 lost 26.75 points or 2.63% to 1136.17.
The DJ Transportation Index was by far the best index losing just 114.83 points or 1.45%.
Stocks are in a solid downtrend led by heavy selling Mondays and Fridays which put stocks in solid retreat. The feeling among traders is that the Fed is on course to raise rates and just like the advent into lower rates several years ago bolstered the bullish case, now, the fear of Fed tightening is putting the bear in charge. There is one thing and one thing only that should be paramount on investors’ minds as the market enters a very weak seasonal period. Will the August lows that were just posted hold? A significant breach of these lows would make it difficult if not impossible for the market to reverse course from the Dow Theory Sell signal.
The worst scenario for the bulls is that a retest brings about new significant lows below 1867. That would force the issue and acknowledge the Dow Theory “sell signal” of August 24, 2015.
Moving averages are lagging indicators by the nature of their construction. In other words, the patterns traced out in the moving averages follow the price of an index or stock. When the death cross is triggered then, it is likely most of the price decline in the index or stock has already occurred. Again, the exception is around recessionary economic periods. It is logical that, the US economy continues its slow growth pace and does not dip into recession.
While worries that a slowing China may pull down the rest of the world is on the minds of investors, the key variable going forward will be the US economy’s ability to support global growth and earnings. In that vein, it’s difficult to see how a slowdown in Chinese growth would have any significant impact on the ongoing US expansion given that exports to China make up less than 1% of US GDP. The refusal of stocks to rally on excellent data that was recently reported, is striking. Despite the huge record auto sales figures reported, Ford (F, -1.08%), GM (-2.72%), Fiat-Chrysler (ADR FCAU, -3.40%), Toyota (TM, -3.41%), AutoZone (AZO, -0.23%), etc. all got hit despite their direct exposure to the market.
Market Strategies Economic Data
The August Employment Report showed 173K nonfarm jobs added to the U.S. economy in August, well short of the Briefing.com consensus of 217K. However, both the June and July numbers were revised substantially higher adding more than 44,000 new jobs.
Hourly Earnings jumped 0.3% well above the expectations of + 0.2% and the Unemployment Rate fell to 5.1% below the consensus of 5.2%. Employment, Wages and Productivity are all rising together. The Average Workweek expanded to 34.6 hours from 34.5.
Private payrolls increased by only 140,000 in August, down from an upwardly revised 224,000 (from 210,000) in July. The consensus expected private payrolls to increase by 210,000. Labor force participation was flat between August and July, which means the decrease in the unemployment rate was the result of job growth and not from discouraged workers.
In all, aggregate earnings increased a solid 0.7% in August, up from a 0.4% gain in July.
That is the number the Fed is going to focus on when it decides on whether or not to raise rates at the September meeting. A 0.7% gain implies a strong acceleration in consumption growth – possibly already indicated by the huge gain in August auto sales – and also augurs for some inflation pressures.
Another solid, yet unspectacular, jobs report puts the onus on the Fed to raise rates at the September meeting at a time when Europe is lowering interest rates and China is devaluing..

Market Strategies Cycles
The market’s wild ride since the middle of August has held the CBOE Volatility index (VIX) above 25 for 10 straight trading sessions. It initially spiked above 40 on August 24th. Historically, when VIX has spiked, the market was at or very near a bottom. Past spikes were representative of extreme levels of fear and panic that were typically only seen at major bottoms. But, in the chart below showing the monthly bars of the VIX . The S&P 500 this has not been in this situation since financial crisis struck the markets in 2008. At the height of the financial crisis, the VIX nearly reached 90 during the week ending October 24, 2008, but the market did not find bottom until nearly five months later on March 9, 2009 when the VIX had retreated into the 50’s (still elevated). The May 6, 2010 “flash crash” pushed VIX to 48.20 during the week ending May 21, 2010, but the S&P 500 did not reach bottom until July 2, 2010. Then again in 2011, VIX spiked to 48 in August and the market did not bottom until early October when VIX had modestly retreated.
An exact explanation as to why the correlation between VIX and the market has changed is elusive, but it could be the result of the increase in high frequency trading and trend following. Although there have only been a few examples in recent history to draw conclusions from, it is quite likely that this trend will persist and either this is the final bottom or this market correction may be several weeks to a month or more in the future (late September, October or even early November).
On Monday, August 24th, investors witnessed a 1,100-point intra-day Dow plunge that ended the day down nearly 600 points, followed up by a 200-point loss on August 25th. On Wednesday, August 26th, the Dow closed up over 600 points but remained 13% below all-time highs.
The VIX spiked to 53 on August 24th and finished August 26th at 30, which is just below the October 2014 spike to 31 during the last market selloff. The VIX needs to head below 25 and settle somewhere between 14 and 25 over the coming weeks for the market to regain confidence and stabilize. The UVXY which is a multiple of volatility surged all the way from an upside break-out August 19th at 26.80 to a high of 91.25 September 1s, thereafter declining to 60.25 but closing at 78.42. The market fears an interest rate hike amidst the sea of international deflation.
Over the past week (August 27th to September 4th), the broader market has produced some large daily price changes, but they have lacked velocity and volatility that occurred during the prior week. Overall, we still remain 11% below 52-week highs and just under 3% off the bottom on the S&P reached on August 24th. The VIX has been fluctuating between 24 and 34 over the past week and remains well below its high of 53 during the Monday meltdown on August 24th.
Deflationary pressures are dominant everywhere and should be an impediment to the Fed in their jawboning to raise interest rates. The productivity gains of the past few months should be rewarded with more of a supply of money. Regulations need to be relaxed and rules such as a new homeowner needing to show a 20% surplus in income over expenses should be eliminated.
One of the issues with this market and its over-regulation that no one seems to be able to get a handle on is the environment that Dodd-Frank has fostered within the banks/brokerage business. The market seems to have found the path of least resistance to be to the downside, but this may be an over-simplification. In fact, now that firms cannot hold positions of their own, the liquidity in both directions has shrunken dramatically. You don’t get a Dow down almost 1,100 points out of nowhere, regardless of overnight news if the banks and brokers can participate…The sharpness of the declines (and also rallies) with the lack of attendant volume is
a symptom of a lack of participation, not necessarily values.
The actions of the market are unprecedented in a pre-election year. IT shows that none of the candidates are touching on economics because they know little about it. Ben Bernanke in his famous 2002 helicopter speech said, “ the sources of deflation are not a mystery. Deflation is in almost all cases a side effect of a collapse in aggregate demand—a drop in spending so severe that producers must cut prices on an ongoing basis in order to find buyers.” We are not in that set of circumstances presently.
Near term, we are looking for the S&P to recapture the 2,000 level and hold above 1,900. A break below 1,900 on the S&P and we could likely retest August 24th lows of 1,867. A break above 2,000 and the S&P may quickly recapture 2,040 level, which was a key support level over the last 5 months and will likely provide resistance if we move upward. I’m currently in the camp that the worst is behind us and calmer waters, friendlier waters are ahead.

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, but can be used with any manufacturer’s infusion pump as well.
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 needle sets alone 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.
Immune Therapeutics, Inc. ( IMUN 0.23 )* Buy now. IMUN Naltrexone is an opioid antagonist used primarily in the management of alcohol and opioid dependence; the FDA approved Naltrexone in 1984 at 50mg. However, in much lower doses there is “Accumulating evidence suggests LDN can promote health supporting immune-modulation, which reduces various oncogenic inflammatory autoimmune processes.
The value of Naltrexone as an immune modulator was recognized by Dr. Ian Zagon at the University of Pennsylvania.2,3 The late Dr. Bernard Bihari, a Neurophysician from New York, USA (who passed away on May 16th, 2010) began treating his patients in the late 1980s4,5. Since that time, many doctors throughout the United States prescribe LDN for a number of indications including Multiple Sclerosis (MS), Parkinson’s disease, Crohn’s disease, HIV/AIDS, cancer and other autoimmune and inflammatory diseases.
A number of research and clinical trials have been completed and undergone in regards to LDN immunotherapies, with phase I and phase II clinical trials successfully run at a number of universities in the United States and Europe, including Pennsylvania State University Medical School at Hershey; University of Chicago; State University of New York; SUNY Upstate Medical University; London Health Sciences Centre – University Hospital, USA; Alpert Medical School of Brown University; Department of Neurology, San Raffaele Scientific Institute; Division of Rheumatology, St. Louis College of Pharmacy; Department of Internal Medicine, University of Utah; Jondi-Shapoor University of Medical Sciences; Department of Psychiatry & Behavioral Sciences, Duke University Medical Center; and Multiple Sclerosis Center at UCSF6. These efforts were pioneered by leading immunologists Dr. Nicholas Plotnikoff, Dr. Ronald Herberman, Dr. Bernard Bihari, Dr. Angus Dalgleish, Dr. Ian S. Zagon, Dr. Jill Smith, Dr. McLaughlin, Dr. Jacqueline McCandless, and Moshe Rogosnitzky, among others.
HOW LDN WORKS
The mechanism of action of naltrexone, in autoimmune diseases and cancer, is still being researched, but there are theories as to the mechanism of action that both explain why LDN works on both autoimmune diseases and cancers, as well as inflammatory disease.
According to Mark J. Donahue’s paper on LDN that uses interviews from Dr. David, Gluck, Dr. Jacquelyn McCandless, Dr. Jarred Younger, and Dr. Ian Zagon:
“LDN is an opioid antagonist that not only blocks the reception of opiates, but also the body’s own endogenous opioids – endorphins. However, because LDN is administered in such a ‘low dose’ it is believed that LDN only briefly (for 3-4 hours) obstructs the effects of endorphins. Sensing an endorphin deficit, the hypothalamus signals for increased production of endorphins in what is called ‘the rebound effect.’ The rebound effect results in three things happening:
The study of immune cell glial interactions is in its infancy. Glial cells are the immune cells in your central nervous system (brain, spinal cord). They are very involved in dysregulation of pain systems, neuroinflammation, and some neurological diseases such as Multiple Sclerosis, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson ’s disease, Autism, ALS, infections of the brain.
LDN has treated Crohn’s Disease, HIV/Aids, Multiple Sclerosis, Autism, Fibromyalgia, Prostate Cancer, Hepatoblastoma, Gastrointestinal Disorders, Melanoma, Gulf War Syndrome , based on clinical studies and patient data.
Enzo Biochem ( ENZ 2.87 ) 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.
