MediaSentiment Pro - Update |
Dear Subscribers,
We would like to welcome our new subscribers to Media Sentiment® Pro, as well as take a moment to thank all of our subscribers for using Media Sentiment®. We want to share with you three examples of the trading success that was possible this week with our tools.
1) The Power of Positive Sentiment
Utilizing positive media sentiment, on Thursday, March 22nd at 4:35 pm EST, Media Sentiment® gave SYNNEX Corp. (NYSE: SNX), a Heads Up™ Thumbs Up recommendation just moments after the company released a positive earnings report.

At the same time Media Sentiment® also gave SNX a Big Movers™ Three Thumbs Up Buy signal based on the combination of positive earnings release surprise factor and analyst surprise factor. BigMovers™ com delivers Buy/Sell signals based on a combination of HeadsUp™ Thumbs Up / Thumbs Down recommendations based on quarterly earnings releases for NYSE and Nasdaq companies in near-real time traders in near real-time and analyst surprise factor. Earnings Surprise Factor is the percentage difference between forecasted and actual earnings per share from a company’s quarterly earnings release. When this surprise factor shows that a company beats Wall Street analyst expectation about a stock’s performance by five percent or more, the stock is likely to move big.

Those Media Sentiment® Pro users utilizing Big Movers™ would have had ample opportunities to enter the stock during the aftermarket and profit as SNX moved up 13.87% between market close and the next days session high. The stock was $19.74 at the stock’s 4:00 pm Eastern closing during the previous trading period, before the impact of the earnings news. Then Media Sentiment® issued its Heads Up™ and Big Movers™ recommendations at 4:35 pm EST, with the stock going up in price from there throughout the aftermarket.
The gray area after 4pm on March 22, 2007 shows SNX’s price movement during the aftermarket.
2) The Power of Negative Sentiment
Meanwhile, utilizing negative media sentiment, on Thursday, March 22nd at 8:55 am EST, Media Sentiment® gave KB Home (NYSE: KBH), a Heads Up™ Thumbs Down recommendation just moments after the company released a negative earnings report, in an atmosphere with negative news about the cooling housing market, rising mortgage rates, and tighter lender standards.

This combination of factors led to negative conditions for much of the trading period. Media Sentiment® Upper Hand™ allowed users to take advantage of this softness throughout the day. UpperHand™ combines HeadsUp™ sentiment recommendations based on quarterly earnings releases for NYSE and Nasdaq companies, with technical indicators, the Commodity Channel Index and Stochastics. These three signals align when the market places buy or sell pressure on a stock. When negative sentiment aligns with technical indicators that suggest a stock is overbought, UpperHand™ Issues a Two Thumbs Down Sell recommendation for the stock particular price and time during the market open. The recommendations’ technical indicators are calculated using five minute price bars, and 50 minute look back periods to determine whether or not stocks are over bought or over sold.

In the case of KBH, Upper Hand™ issued an Upper Hand™ Two Thumbs Down recommendation at 1:30pm EST, and again at 2:30pm EST. Between market open at $49.15, and the market low of $47.00, KBH went down over 4%, giving investors using Media Sentiment® Heads Up™ and Upper Hand™ ample opportunities to profit.

3) The Power of Historical Correlations
Regardless of whether earnings releases are positive or negative, knowing that a particular stock is strongly influenced by sentiment is a powerful tool. In the case of G-III Apparel Group, Ltd. (Nasdaq: GIII), in previous quarters, Media Sentiment® Heads Up™’s recommendations based on the company’s earnings releases have been positive correlated with the stock’s subsequent performance.

Knowing the outcome of previous quarter’s Heads Up™ sentiment recommendations on March 22, 2007 at 4:17pm EST when the stock released earnings again, gave Media Sentiment® an edge up when Heads Up™ gave the stock a Thumbs Up. GIII proceeded to move up from $19.87 at market close on March 22nd, before the news broke, to the market high the next day at $20.50, a 3% move.

Thanks again for subscribing to Media Sentiment® Pro and we look forward to providing you with great trading ideas.
Sincerely,
The Media Sentiment Team
