November 20, 2007

Sometimes the road leads us in a direction we could see coming a mile away.  That certainly makes our future easier to navigate.  So how can we apply that to our investing strategy?

Easy.  Look at the chips.  Every four years we go through a chip cycle—where the chip stocks run WAY up.  We had one from 1995–1996, 1999–2000, 2003–2004 and we’re having another one now that should continue well into the first half of 2008.

Thanks for Trading With Me

In spite of all the market volatility recently, Trending123 traders have a lot to be thankful for this year.  First, there are our profits in stocks like NTES, which we sold recently for 24% gains in four months.  Second, there is the support of our trading community via the Trending123 Message Boards and Trading Room.  Third, there is the weekly Trading Wisdom imparted by neuropsychological trading coach Dr. Janice Dorn.

But this Thanksgiving, what I’m most thankful for is you.  There’s nothing I love more than using my experience to help fellow traders make money.  So I want to show my gratitude by extending a special offer to you.  Join Trending123 before Thanksgiving, and you’ll save $50.  But don’t wait—like leftover turkey, this offer won’t last forever!

Happy Thanksgiving

From the early 90s to today, chip stocks are up by baffling percentages.  CYMI is up 323.77%, VSEA is up 599.42%, KLAC is up 1480.30%, AMAT is up 3079.09% and LRCX is up 1291.58%.  Since they started trading, these stocks underperformed.  People have a tendency to get in them because they shoot up the highest during the rally years.  But is that the right move?

Yes and no.  You have to understand that these stocks are the followers.  And you—as a smart investor—want to follow the leader, Intel (INTC).

The only time we are seeing spikes in these stocks are when we have a run up in Intel.  So every four years, like clockwork, Intel shoots up and the others soon follow.

Today INTC is in the mid-20s.  Recently it did a back-test but nonetheless it is steadily on the rise.  I am targeting it in the 40s.  When Intel does get cranking, so will many of these stocks.  Find out which ones I recommend you “rent” for now.

Don’t buy any of these chips—unless it’s in a dip—then snack away on these tasty stock selections:

Chip Stock #1: Cymer, Inc. (CYMI) — engages in the development, manufacture, and marketing of excimer light sources for manufacturers of photolithography tools in the semiconductor equipment industry.

Chip Stock #2: Lam Research Corporation (LCRX) — engages in the design, manufacture, marketing, and service of semiconductor processing equipment used in the fabrication of integrated circuits.

Chip Stock #3: Varian Semiconductor Equipment Associates, Inc (VSEA) — engages in the design, manufacture, marketing, and servicing of semiconductor processing equipment used in the fabrication of integrated circuits.

Find out my target and buy under on each — join me today!

Looking Ahead

Reserve space in your portfolios for China!  Over the past few months, I’ve compiled a list of about two hundred stocks that could break out during the China rally — which I see coming in the first half of 2008.  I’ll be suggesting the cream of that crop soon—so be on the lookout!


Sincerely,

Signed
