Buy and Hold This Safe Stock for a 14% Dividend Yield

Yielding a retirement-saving 14% with a rock solid business model and crystal clear cash flows, you may not find a better dividend paying stock in this market. And, as an added bonus this company’s profits will actually increase when the Fed hikes rates. This is a no-brainer investment in a market that’s starved for yield.
Although I don’t like to see falling share prices, last week’s stock market reaction to the strong Jobs Report numbers that increased the probability of a Fed interest rate hike in December, can only make me laugh. Companies with interest rate exposure have been expecting a rate increase for several years, and if management teams are smart they already implemented business plans that will let them thrive in a higher rate environment.  (more)

Take a look at the 1-year chart of Chemours (NYSE: CC) below with added notations:

CC had been declining since its IPO, but now the stock has started trading sideways during the most recent month. While in that sideways move, the stock has formed a common pattern known as a rectangle. A minimum of (2) successful tests of the support and (2) successful tests of the resistance will give you the pattern.
CC’s rectangle pattern has formed a resistance an $8.50 (red), and a $6 support (green). At some point the stock will have to break one of the two levels.

The Tale of the Tape: CC is trading within a rectangle pattern. The possible long positions on the stock would be either on a pullback to $6 or on a breakout above $8.50. The ideal short opportunity would be on a break below $8.50.

Realty Income Corp (O): Buy on the Dip

REITs have fallen out of investor’s favor quickly as fears that higher rates will suddenly render these investments useless. Realty Income Corp (O) focuses its investments on commercial real estate properties — a market that is likely to maintain growth as interest rates edge higher.
O shares enjoy the strong underpinnings of long-term technical support while having seen short-term selling pressure that has knocked it down to a technical support level at $46. Only 13% of the analysts covering the stock have it ranked a buy, signaling potential for upgrades to drive prices higher.
We expect the overreaction to the FOMC’s interest rate activity to result in higher prices for O and other REITs. With a target of $52, Realty Income has about 13% upside potential over the next three months.

ZIOPHARM Oncology Inc. (NASDAQ:ZIOP)

Nice breakout on ZIOPHARM Oncology Inc. (NASDAQ:ZIOP) on decent volume. Buyable on a pullback to the pivot.

Chipotle Mexican Grill, Inc. (CMG): Buy on the Dip

Recent headlines concerning an E. coli outbreak combined with a lighter-than-expected earnings report to careen Chipotle (CMG) shares from $740 to $600, a decline of nearly 20%. While the stock’s longer-term fundamentals have some questions, the short-term charts favor a rally as they have breached dramatically oversold conditions.
Last week, CMG shares touched $600 for the first time since July, triggering a psychological support level. Our models rank the stock as a short-term bullish candidate with a short-term price target of $675 as the overreaction to recent events has opened the doors to bullish traders.

Stratasys, Ltd. (NASDAQ: SSYS)

Stratasys Ltd. provides additive manufacturing (AM) solutions for the creation of parts used in the processes of designing and manufacturing products; and for the direct manufacture of end parts. Its AM systems utilize its patented fused deposition modeling and inkjet-based PolyJet technologies to enable the production of prototypes, tools used for production and manufactured goods directly from three-dimensional (3D) CAD files or other 3D content.
Take a look at the 1-year chart of Stratasys (NASDAQ: SSYS) with the added notations:

SSYS has been in a solid downtrend for the past year. However, the stock has been trading sideways on top of a $25 support (green) during the most recent three months. Now that the stock appears to be testing that support level again, traders should be able to expect some sort of bounce. However, if the $25 support were to break, lower prices should follow.

The Tale of the Tape: SSYS has a key level of support at $25. A trader could enter a long position at $25 with a stop placed under the level. If the stock were to break below the support a short position could be entered instead.

Oil could hit US$130 as U.S. output "falls off a cliff," says analyst

Emad Mostaque has had a profound change of heart on oil prices. The analyst with London-based consultancy Ecstrat says US$130 per barrel crude could be less than a year away for the European benchmark as lower prices drive demand in both emerging and developed markets, while a weakening stream of capex dollars constrains new exploration and production.
“What we are seeing is supply is about to roll over dramatically. Demand is continuing to rise,” he said an in interview with BNN. (more)
