• Q: Chipotle Mexican Grill (CMG):
  
  My absolute favorite restaurant play and one my favorites. Seeing the potential
  for a great straddle play here as the market trades in this steady range....
  
  Any big move to the upside at this stock easily surpass $100. I sense a market
  correction and this stock could retreat down to the low 70s. Possible 3:1 win on
  a $10 move in this stock in either direction... Looks appealing to me.
  
  Very well run corporation with a very compelling business model. One of my
  favorite places to eat as well....
  
  Any thoughts?

• A: hey Kurt, there is an article on CMG in this weekend's IBD, page A8: "Why Chipotle
  Promotes from Within". (This is in IBD's "managing for success" column.)
  CMG is also in the IBD 100, it is #80 (it's been in the IBD 100 for weeks). The mentions
  in IBD have an upside and downside. The fact that it's mentioned in IBD at all is an
  upside and a downside. Upside because IBD's focus is on stocks within their CANSLIM model
  (earnings growth, strong technicals, etc). Downside because visibility in IBD increases
  volatility by attracting momentum and other short term traders. more

• Q: Does anyone know if Jim posts under an alias on thestreet.com? I've seen a
  series of comments throughout the day on multiple articles written. It'd be nice
  to know if it's him making these because a lot of them coincide with what I've
  perceived as some of his views on the market......
  
  Thanks for any input....

• Q: Market up about $64 as the crude pits closed. I anticipate some afternoon
  sellers to step in towards the end of the day here leading into earnings reports
  after the close from additional retailers. Just my two cents on the day's
  action. Any thoughts appreciated.

• Q: Anyone else think it is a great time to start writing covered calls for their
  equity holdings? Looks like this market is set to trend steady, or slightly
  downward for the next several weeks in my opinion.

• A: IMO, you should be writing calls every month. It's just a question of at what strike,
  which will vary with your bullish/bearish outlook. For example, if you own some stock at a
  low cost basis in a taxable account and don't want it called away because of the tax event
  then you should write calls that are 7-10% out of the money each month. You may only get
  0.5%/month, but that's 6%/year that you're not getting otherwise.
  On the other hand, if you want to do buy-writes then I prefer ITM calls. If not called
  then you own stocks you like at a discount to what you were willing to pay today anyway.
  And with the new weekly options you can have 4 expirations/month (on some securities)
  which, for those of you action junkies, should keep you busy all month.

• Q: What is the major news out there dragging down the futures? I see the AIG news
  but struggle to see how that could possibly be a big surprise.....

• A: The sheer size of the insurance and derivative contracts on AIG books is bad enough.
  However, as the markets get worse, AIG exposure to those risks that it insured is getting
  larger. Thus AIG is caught in a viscous downward spiral. more

• Q: Been watching a couple indicators all week:
  
  Gold continues to be unable to sustain a rally despite the supposed fear in the
  market.
  
  Recent market leaders have been the primary source of the downfall over the last
  few trading sessions.
  
  The VIXX continue to narrow in the trading range its been forming over the last
  couple weeks, more specifically the month of February. See lower highs and
  narrowing bollinger bands.
  
  Sentiment extremely bearish yet no washout and simple drip, drip, drip type
  selling.
  
  Was looking at a break of the 740 level to initiate long positions. Got that and
  hit a somewhat subjective level of support at 734. Ran some numbers adjusted for
  inflation back to 1996-1997 and it seems as if there might be some relative
  support in the range we hit today. My personal trigger was a break under 740.
  
  Continue to look for an extended rally past 780, and through to 810 or so on the
  S&P 500.
  
  Thoughts?
