FIRE dependent picks


FIRE sector of economy (FIRE = Financial, Insurance & Real Estate).

bullish uaua, bdn, fmd, nhi, hov, ibn, bbd, bma, itu, wbk, nabzy.pk,yavy, pmbc

bearish dhi, cal, joe, psa, wabc, hcbk, bari, std, hdb, bma, bpop



We have seen massive volatility within worldwide FIRE stocks. The picks I am bearish on (red thumbed) read the following as total opposite:
Stocks I am now bullish on here may offer great future dividend potential, great valuation to earning potential, and is a great pick within its respective sector.



These are companies I'd put my money into right now rather than into residential real estate, apartment buildings, other stocks, commodities, or bonds. Few may fail, but just as many will quadruple within the next decade.



Again, if this was a red thumb, sell the stock.



These picks are within this CAPs account that is market neutral - all longs are offset by a short. All long & short picks are diversified across industries & world location to limit downside exposure. This CAPS account will maintain at the very least 20 picks and at the very most 80 picks. Picks will be ended in long/short pairs to remain neutral.
