McDonald's. It's Difficult To Fight Strong Stocks.

Here is McDonalds five day chart at the close on Wednesday. Now here is it's three month chart. Now consider this. In two days the stock is up about twelve dollars. I often talk about Wednesdays being the one day in the week the markets can do reverals. Today the DJIA was up over four hundred points and McDonalds was down 60 cents. It dipped on the opening and came back a bit and then selling pressure came into the stock again on the closing. I personally hate McDonald's food. The internet has tens of Youtube videos saying their fries are poisonous. Yet I get it. But think about this. Whenever a new residential subdivision goes in anywhere in North America there is room for another one of their restaurants to go in. They just pop up and everyone knows what they are. Here now is a snippet I posted in a past McDonald's blog. After a lackluster trading session today McDonald's could drop in the next two days or at least on a Thursday afternoon sell off.

The Stock Nio. Do You Know It?

Interesting action this week. The company had an earning report but more importantly was a release of the number of units they have recently produced. They are still as of yet to break even. The day they break even will be a day to rejoice. Once again all investors really care about are production numbers. This has being an exhausting ride for buyers who bought the stock back at $40.00.
It's jump from four dollars to five dollars has being noted. Look first at it's one day chart above and the volume of trading on the five series of Call late into the action on Friday afternoon.
Sometime after 9:58 a.m. when we first looked at these Calls at $.06 cents or six dollars a contract they sold down to $.02 or two dollars a contract and then rebounded back up to a high on the day of $.20 or twenty dollars a contract. Is any this action playable? Well in this case the options jumped up in about a fifteen minute period of time. If you look at the one day chart you can kind of figure out when that was. You would of have being kind of quick to catch both the highs and lows. In two of my past three blogs I focused on the topic of playing five dollar Call options. They are scary. Anyone buying the $4.00 series of Calls on Nio at the start of the week have done very well. Some people don't like the transparency of Chinese companies. I get that however Nio has become a global player in the electric car industry. Once again , options on five dollar stocks can sometimes suprise. **Nio was the most activity traded stock on NYSE this week up $.98.or 24.3%. Nio popped again ion the following Monday, Sept.9th. Options on a five dollar stocks can sometimes be on fire.
