5 stocks with impressive moves for the week of 18.01-22.01.2021Making a different kind of post here as we had a really impressive week especially for a couple of stocks that caught the eye.
First starting with Luminar Technologies $LAZR. For some time this stock has been on the radar of investors and traders and there is a reason. Not only promising perspectives for the company but the presence of a symmetrical triangle. Volumes are low as the figure is still forming and Yesterday we closed with a slight breach of the figure. I would wait for further development of the price as the volume on Friday's push wasn't that impressive. But definitely keep watching that one.
Next up is NIO INC $NIO. The next promising company in the electric vehicles market. For some time it stayed quiet with low volumes during the formation of the symmetrical triangle. Activity picked up recently and the news from Friday that Nomura initiated a buy for the stock with a target of $80 really gave the price a boost. We are in continuation of the uptrend with currently no reason to pass this stock from your portfolio.
Moving on to Palantir Tech $PLTR. Impressive breakout of the triangle here as well. A stock that has been mentioned a lot this week and was on the watchlist of a lot of traders and investors. Strong push supported by volume not seen in December 2020. Complete full candle with even no attempt to sell the top. If you've missed this impulse you'd better wait for a correction, but this stock is starting to make a name for itself in early 2021.
Number four - FUBOTV INC $FUBO. The plans that were announced earlier in January for the company to acquire Vigtory really made an impact. The company rose 120% in the following days. That rise was then covered and we are in a consolidation, but volumes are talking about the strong activity. This is still hot, so keep an eye on the triangle as we are heading towards the upper resistance.
And lastly, but not least - Gamestop $GME. With multiple halts on Friday's session, this stock jumped 80%. Some would say that the flag before that was the omen, but the battle between retail, investors, and Citron Research raged on. 134 million shares were traded according to Bloomberg stats. A backlash against Citron by bulls over its views on the Grapevine came to a head-on Friday when the short seller said it will decline to comment on the stock following the actions of "an angry mob". Have in mind that a couple of days ago insider sales in GME saw big activity.
The stock market never ceases to amaze me... Thrilling action to tease your eyes and to temper with your nerves.
GME Record Surge Gives Win to Reddit Army in Citron ClashGameStop Record Surge Gives Win to Reddit Army in Citron Clash
In the battle between short-seller Citron Research and an army of Reddit-charged day traders, GameStop Corp.’s seemingly endless rally to an all-time high has given the stock’s bulls a win, though not without controversy.
GameStop’s 75% gain through Friday comes after it more than doubled the week before and marks the most volatile 10-day period on record, data compiled by Bloomberg show. The stock was halted at least four times in New York as it surged as much as 79% to $76.76 as Reddit users ran wild. It was last 44% higher after trading resumed.
At one point, the video-game retailer was the most actively traded U.S. company with a market value above $200 million, data compiled by Bloomberg show, as millions of shares exchanged hands every few minutes.
GameStop representatives didn’t return an email seeking comment.
Reddit users continued to pump up their bets with one user saying they relied on it to pay their student loans.
GameStop’s parabolic rise, which has come amid steady and elevated short interest and increasing volume, has showcased the divide between retail bulls and bears betting on a quick return to reality.
GameStop became a “cult stock because of Ryan Cohen’s success with Chewy” and retail investors “appear confident that he can implement omnichannel initiatives that will materially grow their earnings,” Wedbush analyst Michael Pachter said in an email.
For the company to be worth $50 a share it would have to quickly double their growth, Pachter, who has a $16 price target which is the second highest among analyst tracked by Bloomberg, continued. In order to give GameStop credit for higher earnings power, Pachter, who rates the stock at neutral, wants to see Cohen’s strategy.
A backlash against Citron by some vocal Reddit users over its views on GameStop came to a head on Friday when the short seller said it will stop commenting on the stock following the actions of “an angry mob.”
“We are investors who put safety and family first and when we believe this has been compromised, it is our duty to walk away from a stock,” Citron managing partner Andrew Left wrote in a Friday letter.
The statement came a day after Left said in a YouTube video that he’d “never seen such an exchange of ideas of people so angry about someone joining the other side of a trade,” referring in part to Reddit users who have been particularly vocal on the social media site in seeking to promote their positive opinions on the video-game retailer’s stock.
GameStop fans clashed with Citron after the short seller critiqued shares in a tweet on Tuesday and made plans for a Twitter Inc. livestream the following day. The event was initially pushed back for the inauguration of President Joe Biden and then again on Thursday due to attempts to hack the short-seller’s Twitter account.
credited the bulk of last week’s gains to a short squeeze after activist investor and Chewy Inc. co-founder Ryan Cohen was added to GameStop’s board.
Bearish bets have remained steady with 140% of available GameStop shares currently sold short, according to data compiled by S3 Partners. Bears have seen more than $1.74 billion mark-to-market losses this year, according to the financial analytics firm.
“While older existing shorts have been covering some of their positions due to a profit-loss based short squeeze, there is a queue of new short sellers wanting to get short exposure in GME after its recent run-up,” Ihor Dusaniwsky, S3’s managing director of predictive analytics, said by email.

Twitter looking to resume the uptrendIn my previous post, I've mentioned that there is a correction coming for Twitter and that was catalyzed after the social platform banned Trump's account.
Price has landed perfectly on the uptrend major support and formed yesterday a nicely looking pinbar.
RIS has turned from oversold zone and if you are more aggressive current price is tempting enough to enter long. I would wait for the additional confirmation from MACD. My long-term target is $58 if bullish conditions are confirmed.
Keep eyes on Boeing - a lot of room for a promising recoveryIt took some time for Boeing to break out of its bullish wedge, but the support held well, and we see some more stubborn attempts from buyers to push the price up.
RSI is rising above 50, MACD has crossed over and the histogram is moving slowly towards positive territory. Earnings are after 7 days. so keep that in mind. An impulse above $216 will confirm the continuation of the bullish trend. My long term target is $250.
What's in for Bank of America after the earnings report?Today we saw the earnings report for Bank of America and it did not meet the investor's expectations. So far the earnings season (for the banks) starts a bit off. The EPS came above expectations at 0.59 versus 0.54 expected. Revenue though came in with a miss - 20.1B against 20.56B expected. The main cause for the miss cited is the COVID-19 pandemic.
RSI is already crossing from overbought territory, though MACD's crossing is lagging. The histogram is showing a divergence with the price which is in line with RSI's early divergence with the price.
My expectations are for a drop towards the trend line support at the $31.35 zone. A breach there may lead to a potential drop towards $30.61 and by this jeopardizing the uptrend.
