Wall Street Buying Frenzy on $3 Stock

Dear Reader,
Big news today.
Wall Street is on a buying frenzy.
An obscure $3 tech stock just crushed earnings.
Reports are saying that “earnings beat estimates on booming 5G demand.”
And the company is now set to bring in more revenue than IBM, Facebook and even Google.
Yet while those stocks trade for hundreds of dollars, this one company trades for just $3.
Perhaps that’s why Wall Street is loading up on shares.
If there is one stock to buy right now, this is very likely it.
But don’t wait.
A big project is underway that could create 50,000 new jobs in America… and add billions more to the company’s bottom line.
Sincerely,
Matthew Benjamin
Editorial Director, The Oxford Club

Unusual Options Activity: Bed Bath & Beyond (BBBY)

Posted: 12 Jul 2019 03:00 AM PDT

Big bet retail chain will continue dropping after earnings miss.

Shares of retail outlet Bed Bath & Beyond (BBBY) dropped by over 8 percent on Thursday, following poor earnings and poor guidance.

But traders are betting on even further weakness in shares in the coming months. One option was the November $11 puts on the company, which saw over 10,000 shares trade against a prior volume of 1,100. With shares now under $10, it's an in-the-money trade that should move penny-for-penny with a decline in shares.

Bed Bath and Beyond operates a chain of retail stores and uses a business plan of endless coupons to drive customer traffic. The company has lost considerable money, and the most recent earnings numbers offered investors little hope that things would improve anytime soon.

Action to take: Join traders on this option!

The November put options expire in 126 days. That's enough time to see shares slide further. More importantly, as an in-the-money trade, the option should move higher as shares move lower.

A $1 decline in shares should move the option $1 higher. With the option trading around $1.72, the percentage returns are far more magnified than trying to short the shares directly. In this case, the option could move 58 percent higher if shares fall a mere 10 percent from here.

Amazon to Retrain One Third of Workforce

Posted: 12 Jul 2019 03:00 AM PDT

Company adds voluntary initiative for employees who want to adapt to changing company.

On Thursday, Amazon (AMZN) announced it will spend over $700 million over the next six years to provide retraining for up to one third of its workforce.

The initiative will allow workers to adapt to the rapidly-changing company as it pursues automation and other new technologies. The retraining will allow employees to move into more advanced jobs, or possibly to other jobs outside Amazon itself.

Calling the plan "Upskilling 2025," it adds to the existing programs Amazon offers to employees. With this plan, a warehouse worker could acquire the skills needed for a more technical or IT role, which will remain in demand in future years as technology and automation programs expand.

Action to take: While Amazon shares can be tough to value, the company is one of the most innovative out there. A plan to help employees adapt to changing times and technology can also help the company improve the quality of life for its workforce, where numerous complaints have been a common occurrence in recent years

Shares of Amazon are trading right around $2,000 per share. While pricey, and difficult to value given the company's inconsistent earnings and cash flows, a chance to buy under $2,000 looks attractive to bet on one of the world's most dynamic companies.

Inflation Larger than Expected in June

Posted: 12 Jul 2019 03:00 AM PDT

BLS data shows 0.1 percent increase in prices last month.

Data released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics for the month of June shows that the consumer price index rose 0.1 percent. That's against a gain in May of 0.1 percent, and against expectations for 0.0 percent changes in price.

This data indicates an annual inflation rate around 1.2 percent annualized at the current rate.

Core CPI, which backs out changes in food and energy prices, came in a bit perkier, with a 0.3 percent change for June against expectations of 0.2 percent and a gain of just 0.1 percent in May.

The biggest reason for the sluggish move was the drop in energy prices across all measures. Energy fell 2.3 percent, and is down 5.4 percent in the past year. Natural gas fell by 0.3 percent.

The food index ended up unchanged, as some factors showed a gain, but others showed a decline.

The Core CPI change was the largest monthly increase since January 2018. Indices for items such as recreation, airline fares and personal care decline in June as well. The largest gain came from gardening and lawn care services, which rose 6.1 percent.

The aggregate data is in line with other pieces of data showing a growing economy, but one with potentially slower growth going forward. Lower energy prices can be a boon to the economy, as money spent on energy can then go into buying other goods and services instead.

Insider Activity: Sinclair Broadcast Group (SBGI)

Posted: 12 Jul 2019 03:00 AM PDT

Executive Chairman makes $21.7 million buy.

On Wednesday, Executive Chairman David Smith bought 395,000 shares of the company he runs, Sinclair Broadcast Group (SBGI). The total cost to buy those shares came in just over $21.7 million.

It also raises his total share could to just over six million shares, representing about an 8 percent increase in his total stake. Smith is a major holder with over 10 percent of the company as well.

Sinclair operates a television broadcasting company, with over 191 stations in 89 markets with 605 channels. The company is moving to increase its presence in the area of sports broadcasting arena, by bidding on assets owned by Disney, and already owns the Tennis Channel.

Action to take: Sinclair Broadcasting has been one of the best performing media companies in the past 10 years, building a profit with traditional television broadcasting and other services. An insider buy now, particularly by the major owner and Executive Chairman, is a strong indicator that this market outperformance will continue in the future.

Shares of Sinclair are a buy up to $60 for investors with a long-term outlook. Traders may want to look at the January 2020 $60 call options as a way to play the short-term rally in shares going on right now.
