Quick Update 1-9-23

The market is heading up, especially the tech sector. The SP500 looks to be heading to 4,000. If the YTD pattern continues, the market may bounce off the trend line and go back down (this is, of course, not a certainty). 

My thinking is to hold for now and buy if/when there is a retrace. The stocks at the top of my watchlist are ASML and NOW.

Have a great rest of the day!

Buying Back into CELH

I sold CELH due to a double top formation and the thought that parabolic runs eventually correct. Now, the stock is down over 60%, and the valuation is much more reasonable. The reason for the CELH drop is, in my estimation, due to two factors.     1. Inventory problems at PEP. PEP had too much CELH on the shelves, so they are ordering fewer      CELH products. PEP buys CELH products directly from CELH, so when CELH products are  overstocked, PEP buys less from CELH, which means less revenue for CELH.     2. Overall slowdown in the energy drink sector. Combine these two, and you can see why the stock sold off. Sentiment toward CELH as an investment could remain negative for a while (until the inventory situation improves, one would hope). I am adding 15 shares of CELH at $33.07 for a total of $495.15. Marlin Sandlin owns shares of Celcius Holdings Inc. (CELH).

Adding to CELH Position

CELH is undervalued, IMO. The biggest problem facing the company is an inventory problem that I believe will be a short—to medium-term problem. The stock may not do so well in the meantime, but I see this as an opportunity to add at a reduced valuation. $34 per share x 6 = $192 For those who want additional information about Celcius, you can see the summary by ChatGPT below.
