Enzon Pharmaceuticals Inc (NASDAQ:ENZN) Definitely on watch next week. After the market close on Thursday the company declared a special cash dividend of $0.50 per share of the Company’s common stock, payable on August 12, 2015 to stockholders of record as of July 21, 2015. The SEC filing concerning this special dividend can be found here (FORM 8-K). This special dividend represents a generous dividend yield of 41.32%, as of the last trading price of $1.21. I went long in the after-hours trading. You know, I like special dividends better than regular dividends. This company has been the target of shareholder activists and the largest holding is Icahn Enterprises with 5,904,863 shares or 13.36% stake. Watch the stock closely on Monday.

The earlier resistance of 40.54 will now provide strong support to FIT stock.

Twitter Inc (NYSE:TWTR) looks to be setting up for an upside move, as the price has held up well the past few sessions.I remain short-term bullish but I hesitate to suggest new positions with the market looking vulnerable. At this point, and given the current stock levels, it is important for it to break 36.42 level soon. The trend is expected to be up till trend reversal level of 35 is intact on closing basis. Plus, the stock closed the week above its 9 & 13 exp moving averages, giving it even a more bullish set up.
