Blue Horseshoe Loves NFLX and Banks

Pure gambling, but I’m gonna get 100 shares of NFLX at the close today.  It’s trading near $76 right now, down $42 or 35% on the day. Pretty sick.

Also, looks like the banks are going to be in play over the next 6-18 months.  I’ll be buying shares of Bank of America (BAC), Wells Fargo (WFC), and UYG (financials ETF) over the next few months.  Gonna scale in, so that I won’t have to time the market.  Looking to get about $20k of each.  I probably won’t start buying until near Thanksgiving though.  We’ll see.

Starbucks has been pummeling me…still.  I added 100 shares of DGP (double gold). Here’s what I’m holding now:

  • -750 SBUX at $32.88
  • -400 BBY at $36.49
  • 3 BBY Jan 2012 $40 puts at $9.00
  • 5 SBUX Jan 2012 $45 puts at $9.30
  • 350 SLV at $34.51
  • 6 SLV Jan 2012 $30 Calls $6.99
  • -1,500 UNG at $8.91
  • -1,000 ETFC at $9.55
  • -2,000 SIRI at $1.71
  • 100 DGP at $52.46
Okay, I just bought 50 shares of NFLX at $76.78.  I got chicken and only put $4k to work in this “gamble”.  We’ll see how it goes.  If I can make a thousand, I’ll be happy.

    They call that trying to “catch a falling knife”…. hope you’re better at it than I am.
