One of the names that stood out for me in the latest Under the Hood report, was unsuspecting. These days I expect the names that are popping up there to be the sexy tech high flyers and/or cheaper low cap speculative names. But a certain name with a pretty popular cheerleader caught my attention.
A semiconductor name that we got into a few weeks back stopped us out, and that sucked. But the beauty of honoring stop losses and stepping aside is that it allows us to gain fresh perspectives on new setups.

And it isn't always the super high tech, VC-backed, trendy startup company that benefits. There are plenty of "old-school" names positioning themselves for the new reality of commerce in our new world.

I'm on vacation and trying to stay away from the screens as much as possible this week, but you broke out on Wednesday and today you're just hanging there, baiting me into getting involved.
Maybe it's because I've got some leftover pizza in my fridge which is on my mind for lunch today, but I've been taking a look at a pizza play the research team discussed during the recent All Star Charts Monthly Conference Call and it's got my mouth watering.
