Stocks to Watch for February 24, 2014

( click to enlarge )

InterOil Corporation (NYSE:IOC) after consolidating during the past weeks the stock witnessed fresh buying on last Friday, closing the day with a gain of 3.21% with high volumes and above its 50-day EMA for the first time since December 2013. The price action appears positive and based on chart above may move up to 60/60.51 on volume trading next week. Strong support for the stock exists at 55.42

Codexis, Inc. (NASDAQ:CDXS) did not break out from the flag formation last week. Instead the stock consolidated further. The stock is now near the apex of the triangle and there is a higher possibility it may break out from that in coming week. Breakout point is now 1.96 and target price is 2.41.

Acasti Pharma Inc (NASDAQ:ACST) is a stock that has been basing for a while here and technically is due for a break out. Looking at the chart above we can see a strong support and buyers coming in around 1.2-1.25 area. At present levels the stock is undervalued IMHO. We have witnessed a dry up in volume as its basing, which could mean that traders are slowly waking up to this fact. The stock's 12-month high of $4.20 is also a huge catalyst for an amazing bounce.

Rare Element Resources Ltd (NYSEMKT:REE) Large volume last week. This is a candidate for a breakout. The MACD indicator is rising in positive territory and is above the signal line, supporting the bullish scenario. 1.70 is the pivot level to watch.

XOMA Corp (NASDAQ:XOMA) had a strong bullish candle in the last trading session with high volumes. The next key resistance lies at 8.99. If a breakout happens we can see a target of 11. So far, all technical indicators are in favor of an upward price movement. The MACD has generated a buy signal on Friday and is currently above the 0 line. All EMA’s are below the current price. Long setup.

After a month of resting Tenet Healthcare Corporation (NYSE:THC) is in breakout mode again.

Thompson Creek Metals Company Inc (NYSE:TC) Investors quickly bought the dip this morning and the stock displayed relative strength with a 4.3% gain. There is no change from my weekend comments. Long setup.

( click to enlarge ) 

Finisar Corporation (NASDAQ:FNSR) Looks like a bottom play here. Many technical indicators starting to turn up and the volume has been good . I'm expecting FNSR to move up in the near term.

  ( click to enlarge ) 

Akorn, Inc.(NASDAQ:AKRX) is still struggling with resistance near $13.25. My plan is to buy the stock when it breaks this level. If we're triggered at $13.25 my first target is $14. The MACD has produced a new buy signal on the daily chart.

6 Chart set-ups to watch next week


 ( click to enlarge )

Rubicon Technology, Inc.(NASDAQ:RBCN) - Over 32.80% or 4.8M of the shares available to trade in RBCN are in the hands of short sellers. Stock has fallen from over $10.70 to less than 9 bucks in recent weeks. As I said on twitter I like stocks with high short interest, especially if the stock is holding up strong above support. If RBCN does indeed bounce, we could see a significant short squeeze. From a technical standpoint, Friday's action turned my bias from neutral to bullish. Daily slow stochastic just crossed and the MACD is trying to cross up. I really like the look of this chart but I also would like to advise investors to be careful with earnings. Zacks has a Strong Buy rating on Rubicon Technology and the average consensus analyst price target is $11.89. The company has no debt, $2.29 a share in cash and a book value of 9.96.

NOTE : The company will report earnings after the close on Tuesday and analysts are expecting a loss of 3 cents per share on revenue of $19.7 million.

InterDigital, Inc.(NASDAQ:IDCC) remains one of my favorite stocks. No one was selling IDCC on Friday after a huge rally in the prior session, as it appears the shares now reside in the hands of long time holders. Someone still accumulating and no one wants to take profits, maybe some real big news around the corner !!!  Friday’s high of $40.98 is resistance for the next upside move.

   ( click to enlarge )

The stock price movement in the last couple of days indicates that Thompson Creek Metals Company Inc (NYSE:TC) has formed a short-term bottom at $2.60. We can see a fresh wave of uptrend if the stock manages to close above the levels of $2.91. Although the stock did not perform well this year, we start to see now signals of rebound. The stock is approaching again the $2.99 level, which typically acts as resistance, so keep an eye on her for a possible breakout. Beyond that, the above technical daily chart shows a bullish MACD crossover and stochastics which indicate we have some more room to the upside.

( click to enlarge ) 

On the medium-term scale, Alpha Natural Resources, Inc.(NYSE:ANR) has been forming a rounding bottom formation for the past six months. The stock still showing bullish momentum in line with the sector and the volumes are supporting the current upmove. Near term support is now located at $8.32, as long as this level holds, I'd expect the uptrend to continue. Long-term investors may hold with a stop at $7.40

  ( click to enlarge )

Research In Motion Limited (NASDAQ:RIMM) could move to the target zone at $9.57-$10. The positive outlook would be valid as long as the stock holds above the stop-loss level at $7.93. On daily chart, the technical indicators are supporting the bulls. The MACD is positive and above the signal line, while the RSI is also moving up and above its 50 level.

First Solar, Inc.(NASDAQ:FSLR) in symmetrical triangle, watch test of lower trend line 21 area, may spark more selling if broken. MACD crossing down.

Stocks To Watch For November 02, 2012

( click to enlarge )

LSCC had a very bullish move today breaking several resistance lines with decent volume. With technical chart showing strength as MACD is above signal and %K line above %D line, we could see the stock keep going up. Additionally, the accumulation/distribution line shows the stock has been under accumulation for three months now. Next resistance is at $4.53

  ( click to enlarge )

Thompson Creek Metals Company Inc (NYSE:TC) had a strong bounce off the 2.60 level accompanied by a nice pickup in volume. We should be able to see some decent upside movement for the bulls here. The price may rise to the 2.92-3 range in the short-term. If the stock breaks the $3 level , it can rise to its previous highs (3.87). On the technical side, the chart looks very good here and I expect a continuation of the upward movement. From a fundamental stand point the stock is cheap at current price: almost trading at cash level (2.43 cash per share) and with a book value of 11.21 

   ( click to enlarge )

InterDigital, Inc. (NASDAQ:IDCC) surged over $40 for the first time since February after three big up days. Recent volume could suggest that something is in the works. Keep the stock on your watch list.

    ( click to enlarge )

Rubicon Technology, Inc.(NASDAQ:RBCN) made a nice upside reversal today with a volume expansion. Although the stock is still weak as MACD is below 0 and the stock is below 50-day moving average, if RBCN can go up a few more days it will be back to bull market. There could be good upside in the stock so watch the stock closely on Friday.

  ( click to enlarge )

Career Education Corp.(NASDAQ:CECO) - Nice runner from the buy list yesterday. In line with my anticipation, the stock confirmed today the reversal when it broke up above the $3.51 level.  I'll be watching once again CECO on Friday waiting for the stock to break its 50-day sma at 3.69. Once the stock breaks through this level, we should see another strong upside move. This trade could have big upside, but it will be very volatile. CECO will move quickly, so be ready for this move.
