OUR TRADE PLAN: LONG
ANALYSIS: StockJumpers trajectory analysis reveals a surprise beat (though still negative EPS) on the main metrics and a positive market reaction to the release. Expectations are lowered and there is trouble here, but there is also a huge gap up potential from previous 2 quarters (40%) drop in market cap. We think they will beat today and the bar is not so high that investors will see opportunity.
We are overall LONG for the event.
(Note: This is an after-market release – today)
TARGET ‘JUMP ZONE’ POTENTIAL: 8-14%
CONFIDENCE RANKING: 8
POTENTIAL OPTIONS CONTRACT: NONE
