I use Benzinga Pro (Essential) for 90% of my research each day. I have recently subscribed to a LIFETIME subscription for $1650. This is incredible value. If this is something you’d be interested in then shoot me an email ([email protected]) and I’ll put you in touch with the Rep to receive the agreed price. I couldn’t recommend it highly enough.

1) Lucid Group (LCID) (Rating: B, Multi-Day)

X-Ray LCID: Industry Group: Auto Manufacturers, Market Cap: 6.99B, Float: 1.20B Short Interest 33.00%, Days to Cover: 3.09, Exchange: NASDAQ

LCID Announce 10-1 Reverse Stock Split. Reducing the Float way down. This announcement coincides with UBER Partnership. Global Robotaxi Program developed for Uber. Uber intends to deploy 20,000 or more LCID vehicles over the next 6 Years. Certainly in theme, High Short interest, about 60% of float is locked up by the Saudi’s. Severely neglected stock, but likely not an EP in my opinion. It’s difficult to find a company that UBER has not partnered with now.

Honorable Mention to:

BULL : Reintroducing Crypto trading to Global Customer base and integrating WeBull Pay back into WeBull Group. In theme. Has a habit of frustrating traders with fades but very nice Daily Chart base, severely neglected. May continue to frustrate. Just a SIP Idea.

X-Ray BULL: Industry Group: Software - Application, Market Cap: 6.25B, Float: 157.76M Short Interest 3.14%, Days to Cover: 0.49, Exchange: NASDAQ

VLCN : $500m Private Placement to buy Bitcoin. Just the usual daily Bitcoin Treasury Pump. Already up 300% on the day. Tiny float, all the mechanics to go full stupid. Beware of crazy Vol on this, not for the faint hearted.

X-Ray VLCN: Industry Group: Auto Manufacturers, Market Cap: 5.02M, Float: 0.54M Short Interest 5.16%, Days to Cover: 0.75, Exchange: NASDAQ

Delayed Reaction Watchlists:

Market Awareness

Choppy looking open on the Indices. A few macro figures came in positive this morning. We are seeing some total pump moves this morning. I’m a little cautious of a reversal today, but this is likely because I am fully invested (on margin) going into the day.

Will be managing positions and watching for delayed reactions and cautious about new risk going into the weekend.

PS: There are many ways to trade stocks in play. It does not have to be the one that keeps going straight up and sometimes it doesn’t even have to be day one of the catalyst. Everyone must find a setup, timeframe and method that works for them. This list is supposed to educate on the criteria I use and the methods in which I find Stocks in Play. Yours may differ and that is completely okay.
