Good Companies Don’t Always Make For Good Stocks

Published September 14, 2021

Picking good stocks is not enough…

And picking good companies is not the same thing as picking good stocks…

Especially when it comes to your portfolio.

Today, I’ll give you two examples of great companies with stocks that aren’t doing anyone any favors right now.

But I’ll also provide you with an interesting stock from a good company with upside right now.

First, the good companies with stock challenges…

Take Amazon (AMZN), for example.

It’s arguably the greatest company in the history of the world.

There’s never a bad time to buy AMZN stock…

Right?

Wrong.

Look at the chart below…

Amazon stock has gone nowhere for over a year.

Netflix (NFLX) created a media empire unlike anything we have ever seen.

Its competitors don’t come close to matching its dominance.

But investors have not been rewarded for the company’s success in a while…

That’s why I stick to surging stocks – the ones making big moves right now.

Amazon and Netflix had their time in the sun. And they will almost certainly make another big move higher.

But right now, both stocks are range bound.

Investors are sitting on dead money.

And there are too many good opportunities where your money can actually work for you.

The Company with a Stock to Buy

Case in point… Penske Automotive Group (PAG).

After a modest pullback following a big run higher, shares of PAG are completing a cup-and-handle pattern.

Price action is getting tight, with retracements down to about 7%.

If it continues to tighten, even better. It will allow me to risk even less with a tight stop.

I’m looking for a breakout above recent highs on heavy volume.

If we get it, I’ll be targeting a move to around 112.00 on the upside.

Embrace the Surge,

Even Bill Gates himself has said that generative AI has “peaked” and that the next version of ChatGPT won’t be much better than the current version.

So where will the next wave of AI innovation – and profits – come from?

I'm a new member of 'Insider Effect' and sent a support email and was responded to within minutes. It starts very well.

I'm happy I recently opted in to the Ross Givens's Trading Club at Traders Agency (at the best and fairest offer I could possibly get). I'm new to trading U.S. stocks and options on a regular basis but it doesn't matter, Ross does all of the hard work for me while I'm trading at my own pace (he knows how to trade successfully most of the time and I know that I won't win every trade. Fair enough). He and his great team share a lot of their trading experience in live sessions. Great job. Thanks a lot!

I started with Ross Givens and Trader's Agency GOLD in September of this year and have had some significant success on all but one of the trades he suggested. I have actually made 157% in profits over what I paid to join Traders Agency within my first 30 days. I am no stock expert and I want to know more about how to invest in the market. Ross's videos and strategy sessions are very insightful, and you can chat during the sessions to get his feedback. He's got all the tools at his disposal and has set up some good algorithms in order to help one understand the chaos and fundamentals to watch for in order to make a good investing decision. I have had other investment "helpers" that never yielded what I have within such a limited amount of time. I think Ross, and his team, is the "Real Deal"
