Stutland says the options pits are pretty optimistic on Amazon (AMZN). I think you could still play it to the upside. He got long for some of his investors before the last earnings. At least there's a floor on this stock and I think it should hold here, he says.

  • $14.25

Jared Levy of Peak6 Investments thinks that the financials may be at risk for a pullback, simply because the reality of Washington's role in financial regulation basically is up in the air. He points out that financials had led us out of the recession, but there is still big options action surrounding the financial index (XLF) on downside puts, trading up 40,000 times with investors hedging against downside risk. Levy's point is that if new regulation throws a "monkey wrench" into the works of the financial industry, the sector is at risk for some downside movement, although upside potential remains.

A. any forward growth guidance you get from
a company has to be taken with a grain
of salt. dubai was not news 2 days ago,
yesterday it clipped the s n p for 20
points. these are turbulent times and
all forward statements are a guess. 5
year ones are a joke. we've had a really
nice upternd for the last 8 months, that
may be coming to and end or at the very
least its probably gonna get choppy.
you're gonna have to be the judge of the
reliability of any future estimates and
any one stock can have multiple guesses
at theirs.
