This morning on “Opening Playbook” — my weekly live trade room at 10 a.m. ET each Thursday! — I covered a ton of actionable info and trade ideas, broke down the biggest market stories, and took a sneak peak at upcoming earnings from Google parent Alphabet (GOOG; GOOGL), and Nvidia (NVDA).
First, let’s talk about my top Trump stocks… and let’s start with the obvious:
✅ Tesla (TSLA) — Elon is on the Trump train and I believe it will open doors for Tesla to continue riding the wave of deregulation, government subsidies and energy…
More on energy later.
✅ Meta Platforms (META) — Mark Zuckerberg jumped on the Trump train as well — better late then never! — and Meta has a legitimate shot to become an Apple (AAPL)- / Microsoft (MSFT)-sized behemoth with new products.
My question for Zuck is: What about buying TikTok?
That’s it for the buddy-buddy stocks, now let’s talk energy, specifically nuclear energy and aerospace/defensive stocks…
✅ GE Vernova (GEV) — Nuclear energy will be hot, hot, HOT under the new administration because it’s needed as a better power source. Look for the red tape to get rolled back and this new energy-tech combo to break out.
✅ Oklo (OKLO) — This is a very, very speculative play we took my Exotics program with an $8 entry a few months back. Today, it’s up to $25 a share — though volatile, so be prepared for big swings.
✅ Howmet Aerospace (HWM) — GE (GE) is also solid here along with Raytheon (RTX) and Lockheed Martin (LMT).
I also covered gold, Nancy Pelosi’s latest stock buys, seasonals, sentiment, upcoming earnings and more, so be sure to catch the replay up top and join us at 8 a.m. ET each Thursday!
Top Apex Signal of the Week (Again!)
I don’t mean to sound like a broken record here, but the top Apex Indicator signal this week is the aforementioned META…
And now for everyone’s favorite part… trade ideas! Here’s my monthly breakout trade…
Monthly Breakout Trade Idea
Ticker: NFLX
- Options: 21 FEB 25 EXP.
- BUY 980 CALL.
- SELL 985 CALL.
Price: $2.50 during this morning’s show — if we close above $985 by 2/21, we make a 100% ROI!
And my weekly momentum play…
The Weekly Momentum Play
Ticker: GE
- Options: 31 JAN 25 EXP.
- BUY $200 CALL.
- SELL $202.5 CALL
Price: $1.17 fill during this morning’s show — if GE closes above $202.5 next Friday, 113% ROI.
We usually have an overnight trade as well but I’m going to pass today with Donald Trump speaking this morning, which could wreak havoc on an overnight option.
Remember, sometimes taking no trade at all is the best play when you’re not super confident in anything — cash is a position, too!
That’s all for today but I’ll be live again at 10 a.m. ET Tuesday, when I’ll do a strategy training session with some live trade examples, and then 10 a.m. ET on Thursday again for “Opening Playbook”!
