Trading Ideas for March 29th 2021

One of the indicators I like to use to confirm and support my stock picks is the Golden Cross.

Golden Cross : A golden cross happens when a 50-day moving average for an asset trades higher than a 200-day moving average.

Pretty simple in theory, the 50 moving average is faster to respond and will may show indication that the asset is building support for a bull run.

AT&T (T)

I still hold my position in AT&T from my earlier entry in March.

  • Price Entry 28.24

  • Current Postion +7.9%

  • Dividend Yield 6.86%

While I am already doing well with this trade, and am still waiting for my first dividend payout, I am surprised I am already up 8% in less than a month. I guess the market as a whole is still doing well along with it.

I am considering a small add to see if I can get some dividend and and share price bump in a shorter time frame.

Getting the Golden Cross indicator gives me confidence to hold my position for longer and not take the quick 8% gains and run. While it is tempting to see if I could stack 5-6 8% gainers in a year, I think the likelihood of failure is too high to make a bad trade, at least at the current investments size.

VMWARE (VMW)

  • No Position

  • P/E 31.62

I have been watching VMWare for as an as an option to gain more exposure to Could Solutions. While they look interesting, I have stayed away from trying to trade the band I think has developed since the Covid Crash. I typically stay away from companies that miss earnings by large margins every quarter. I will dig deeper to see if there are more indicators or reasons why VMW is more compelling
