Small Cap Stocks

People are telling me they enjoy the success of the US and Canadian Stock of the Day sites... so, I'll focus my attention there and say good-bye to this additional site.  Cheers... join me on the other two.

Small Cap Stock of the Day for June 23, 2011

Welcome back...

June 22nd triggered my first buy in this portfolio... WJX.V @ $36.39.  I'm kept my stop loss @ $36.12 and it triggered for nearly a 0.7% loss.

June 23rd, I chose ANS.TO @ $2.59 with a stop loss @ $2.53 and it did not trigger.

For June 24th, I'm choosing AAA.V @ $1.85 with a stop loss @ $1.80.

So far, this little adventure has only triggered on stock, and it closed down 0.7%.

See you tomorrow!

Small Cap Stock of the Day for June 22, 2011

Welcome back...

• For June 22nd, I'm choosing WJX.V @ $36.39 with a stop loss @ $36.12.

See you tomorrow!

Small Cap Stock of the Day for June 21, 2011

No small cap stock today... for June 21st.

Small Cap Stock of the Day for June 20, 2011

Welcome back...

• For June 22nd, I'm choosing WJX.V @ $26.39 with a stop loss @ $26.12.

See you tomorrow!

Small Cap Stock of the Day for June 17, 2011

We continue to sit with no purchases in the past week... which is not all bad when the markets are falling down.  It's a great way to preserve capital and it just goes to show how difficult it is to make money purchasing long positions in stocks right now.

• For June 17th, I'm choosing SLG.V @ $1.88 with a stop loss @ $1.83.

See you on Sunday!

Small Cap Stock of the Day for June 15, 2011

The smaller cap stocks have wild swings at times, making them more risky than others...  so far, we have not had any of the picks trigger purchases.  So, no wins yet, and no losses... which is far better than taking unnecessary risks with capital.

• For June 15th, I'm choosing EPO.V @ $0.27 with a stop loss at $0.25.

See you tomorrow!

Small Cap Stock of the Day for June 14, 2011

Hello again... 

Markets continued downward...

• For June 14th, I'm choosing RR.V @ $10.10 with a stop loss at $9.99.

See you tomorrow!

Small Cap Stock of the Day for June 11, 2011

Hello again... 

Markets continued downward...

• For June 11th, I'm choosing KGN.TO @ $8.09 with a stop loss at $7.99.

See you tomorrow!

Small Cap Stock of the Day for June 10, 2011

Welcome back... 

Neither of the first two picks triggered... however, both still look appealing to me.  So... I'm going to place orders for these two again.

• For June 8th, I chose NVS.TO @ $1.08 (stop loss at $1.05).
• For June 9th, I chose RR.VN @ $10.24 (stop loss at $10.12).
• For June 10th, I am leaving these two orders in place.

I think from now on I'll keep a running tally to make it easier for those following to know exactly where we are at.  Watch and see... I suspect we'll be up every month despite market conditions.

See you tomorrow!

Small Cap Stock of the Day for June 9, 2011

Here's some things you need to know as you follow along:

• These are not recommendations.  I'm not a professional financial advisor and I do not make recommendations.  These are my personal picks that I share with you for entertainment purposes only.  
• These are short term picks.  Personally, I prefer to use a Weekly approach, based on strong fundamentals and weekly technical indicators.  In fact, I've been quite successful in presenting weekly picks to my subscribers at www.investinthemarkets.com.  But, if you're looking for something a little more "active" than this might be a great place for you too.
• Stop losses are necessary.  I'll always place a stop loss on every trade... to minimize my risk while allowing for maximum returns.  
• Canadian and US stock picks are also available.  For those looking for other options, consider the following sites:
• http://canadianstockoftheday.blogspot.com/
• http://usstockoftheday.blogspot.com/

If you ever have any questions, feel free to email me at contactdoctorstock@gmail.com.

Now, for the June 9, 2011 US Stock of the Day.

• For June 8th, I chose NVS.TO @ $1.08 and it did not trigger.
• For June 9th, I am choosing RR.VN @ $10.24 (stop loss at $10.12).

See you tomorrow!

Small Cap Stock of the Day for June 8, 2011

Please join me later this week for an explanation of how this works... for now, please not these are not recommendation, just my personal picks.

See you tomorrow!

Postponed until June 6

Join me next week for stock picks each day

Coming May 15, 2011

I'm shifting the focus of this blog beginning May 15, 2011 to focus on one Small Cap Stock of the Day.

By definition, these will not be penny stocks, but companies with proven results.

So, beginning May 15, 2011, I'll begin posting a small cap stock of the day... including specific purchase prices, etc.

In the meantime, longer term investors can go to www.investinthemarkets.com to find specific educational resources and investment opportunities.

Until then, cheers!

Canadian Stock Picks Weekly Review

It was a good week... and profitable.

CSF.TO triggered on February 14, 2011 at $12.30 and is now at $13.15 up 6.9% on the purchase.

STB.TO triggered on February 14, 2011 at $6.90 and is now at $6.90, basically even.   

CPG.TO was a loser... but with only 1% risked, it's almost meaningless.

So, on the week... up 5.9%.  This is going to add up quite nicely over the next few weeks... I hope you'll join me Sunday for Monday's Canadian Stock Picks of the Day.
