For Week Ending – June 8, 2014:
You may have noticed that the last 2 weeks, I
have sent out this newsletter on Monday instead of Saturday. This is because I
have been getting Yahoo data look-up errors on about 30 companies for the past
few months. Yahoo was returning errors
on either Stock Price or 52 Week Low on several foreign stocks ending in .L or
.AX, but it was the same stocks every week. I then had to look up the data for
these stocks on Yahoo and enter it into Stock Evaluator by hand. This is pretty time consuming, so I was
trying other ways to fix my automatic look-up function. Two weeks ago, I found that if I run the
look-up late on Sunday, the data all comes in correctly. I think maybe Yahoo was updating all of their
data tables in a sequential fashion over the weekend so the tables I was
getting my data from for these foreign stocks must have been the last ones to
get updated.
Mutual Fund Evaluator is not updated yet for
last week (June 7) due to technical problems.
On Thursday June 5, I sold a Covered Call
Option on OPK, see details below.
Check out my article on how to use PUTs and
CALLs:
Last week, the world market indices were mixed
with minor Up/Down movements. The Dow
Jones 30 Industrials and S&P 500 continued to inch up to new all time
highs. Here is an article discussing the
jobs recovery that is happening in the U.S.
Here is the 5 Year Chart comparing the S&P
500 to the Dow Jones 30 Industrials:

I originally bought Opko Health (OPK) at $8.35
/share on Feb. 13, 2014 and my goal was to sell it at $12. After I bought, it went up to $10, then back
down to $8. So when it got back up to
$9.20 on Thursday, and I saw the Jan 2015 $12 option selling at $.60, I decided
to take some money off the table.
