Manipulation Monday: 12 Stocks That Sadly Aren’t As Corrupt Or Manipulated As I’d Like

Posted by timothysykes on Mon 7th of Jul, 2008 09:24:52 AM

Yeah, it’s sad, trust me, I know. Friggin promoters go into hiding in the Caribbean during true bear markets, hopefully we can tempt one or two out—maybe tell ‘em Osama bin SEC is taking the month of July off to reevaluate their priorities—cuz I hate writing/trading about the real—or mostly real—companies below:

Getting lots of emails over the weekend from people wondering whether they should dip their toes in FPP, PDO, ROYL…I dunno man, these things tanked once and rebounded gradually, but as I posted in THIS article over the weekend, their chart pattern reek of double tops…risky bet to buy on the dip, no gratzie, not for me.

MBRK is a classic case of a wannabe financial journalist pumping a stock up…detailed post coming, just reserve shares for possible short

Qimonda AG (ADR) (QI) was a prime short on its spike and mewishes it lasted longer…gotta be quick shorting some of these as their stench is so bad, their bitter longterm shareholders will exit en masse on any 50% spike…your job is find me more spiking stocks with nasty long-term charts like that, they all make great shorts and sadly too few spike long enough

MHGC is one such carcass of a company…nice crack of $11.70 intraday support last Thursday, is it too much to ask for a spike to short into today? Probly…

GETG is a PennyStocking master student Tony Ellis pick from a month ago, respect, maybe participate in this breakout, gonna make a great short eventually!

Smith Micro Software, Inc. (SMSI) is trying to bottom—where ya gonna go you piece of crap company? Resistance everywhere, I’ll look to short on any continued bounce, definitely reserve shares to short, so very COIN-like, those of you who’ve read my book An American Hedge Fund know this was pumped up sooooo long ago by promoters, only a matter of time until it returned to its junkie destiny

NVDF, ZYNX & BWMS breakouts, albeit slight, courtesy of InvestorsLive’s nightly screen all too illiquid/slow moving for me, but I don’t know you guys so maybe it’s something you’re into

Chindex International, Inc. (CHDX) is another pumped up junkie that’s spiked on bottom hopes, they got “key” regulatory approval last Wednesday, nice ticker spam of Intuitive Surgical, Inc. (ISRG) (hopefully Google Finance picks this up to show you how you do it!), definitely reserve shares, this one has always been corrupt.

    Symbol change,
  • donnacap
    TGC just went up
  • Tony Ellis
    GETG...I can't believe Scottrade restricted me from buying at 3.15 Thursday. Oh well, at least I was able to pick up a few shares in my Etrade IRA.
  • awesome find in GETG, already getting a few TIMalert subscriber emails from people who bought at the open, yey!
  • AdamN
    Was in MBRK over the weekend, sold out this morning @ 2.24. Now in short 2,000 @ 1.97
  • brent
    any one going to play ROYL to the downside. Or is this thing going to go up, seeing as how oil is down and may lead into a possible rise in oil?
  • brent
    scottrade strikes again....
  • donnacap
    I am frozen with my trades with Scottrade.
  • Scottrade sucks.....use Zecco, think or swim, or tradeking
  • Can you say BREAKOUT on UVSE!!!!
  • MARC
    UFgemini, Whats going on with UVSE? Crazy vol.
  • reserved shares of TGC to possiblle short, pretty amazing runup so far
  • JeffMoates
    Tim, any chance of an afternoon fade on TGC? There seems to be significant support at the 2.68 price.
  • JeffMoates
    Wow, must have been typing at the same time
  • great minds....
  • MARC

    It is just an undervalued stock....could runup much higher today. At this pace, it should hit .05 by the end of today. Ha...wishful thinking
  • JeffMoates
    short TGC at 2.64, maybe too early
  • LOL to UVSE being undervalued...dude its just the latest crappy scam penny stock to be in play, its not undervalued, if anything its overvalued, but the moo idiots are running it up...could go anywhere, not a highly predictable game
  • JeffMoates
    pretty sure this is just a squeeze, just looking for good timing to short some more... Still positive on my 2.64 short
  • MARC
    UFgemini, Thanks, Im in so I like that .05 sounds real good to me.
  • Get Shorty..... Reloaded
    Tim, how far are you letting tgc spike before pulling the trigger?
  • Penguin314
    So I am up around 3k from UVSE. Not bad, I'll hold.
  • why not aim for 8 or 9 cents on UVSE? hell, post that u guys expect it to go to 12, that'll get others excited! friggin penny stock games
  • lol..yeah, but you gotta love riding the wave...surfs up!!!
  • Nice penguin...i wish i had that much to play around with...im working with my $600 tax rebate check im tryin to flip.
  • JeffMoates
    Wall of sellers on TGC at 2.63
  • Bob (VC)

  • younggunz
    anyone get the tim sykes foxbiz interview on video yet? I wasn't at home at the time but I couldn't find anything about it looking on their website briefly.
  • donnacap
    cneh went up nice today
  • beinggreat
    No interview! I was tuned in. Looking for my dose of wiseguy but no TIM. Well at least I got it this morning. Go Tim!
  • Aaron
    Hey Tim, what do you think about RDN....up big with no credible news or am I wrong?
  • new post:

    http://www.timothysykes.com/timsykes/2008/07/07...

    RDN isnt my kind of pattern...yet, let it spike more
  • aaron
    Confident enough to buy this on its way up?
  • I was going to short CHDX today. It did great. However I missed out.

    Why? Because Osama Bin SEC shut me down until Thursday. I had to send Zecco an e-mail saying I would not pattern day trade again.

    I trade one to many because I wasn't keeping track.
  • RDN is up because of a change in management, shorts being squeezed, and Bernanke said he is considering extending the special lending program beyond the end of the year. It was enacted in March with emergency authority scheduled to end in mid-September. Good news, Marty Whitman is invested heavily in RDN as well.
