So what is the hot stock pick for today?

I'm pretty much into biotech, it's been under fire lately but for no good reason other than panic and idiot politicians flapping their gums.

Exelixis...Exel has some great cancer therapies about to be approved. also a good pipeline...

Trevena TRVN has a new post op pain management therapy that is doing excellent in trials , When it is approved it will take billions from the conventional opiods market -a $11 billion, conservatively, market

If there is a sale, they might in fact move to Mexico where it would cost less to make products which in return mean bigger profits?

Bought some Walmart today. I haven't owned this one for many years, but today it's lower than it's been in nearly 5 years and is suddenly a bargain. LOTS of big money buying in this one earlier this year - Buffett, Bill Gates, Jim Simons, etc.

Bought some Voxx and Cepheid as well.

Also bought a little more of a speculative position in a company called Amyris I already owned a bit of.

The fact that companies like Walmart and Yum Brands are reporting bad numbers is somewhat concerning. But if they continue to get even cheaper in whatever may lie ahead in the broad markets, I'll probably buy even more of them as they go down farther.

The more volatile long positions in the biotechs, energy companies, tech, etc are usually backed up with put options in my portfolio. I also have put postions as bets against the big 3 overbought tech superstars - Amazon, Netflix, and Tesla, among many other overpriced and fundamentally declining companies.
