CAF Gives Us 25% Trade

Back on October 29, we posted a chart and trade set-up on the Morgan Stanley China A Shares Fund (CAF), in anticipation of business growth and profits emanating from mainland Chinese companies, in particular those that serve or will serve the enormous middle-class consumer.
This anticipation was evident not only from the macro picture but from the giant base formation developing in CAF chart.
We issued a trade alert in CAF at 24.00, and were able in just a little over a month yield in excess of 25% as we took the profit on Friday December 5 at 30.77.
That's certainly not the last we'll see in trading CAF, which we expect to be re-entering on weakness.

More Top Calls From Mike
Back on February 3, Mike Paulenoff highlighted the potential for a continued rise in gasoline futures.
This past Tuesday afternoon (Feb 9), one of our long term subscribers, Sid_F, asked Mike in his MPTrader discussion room what he makes of QS (QuantumScape Corp), which develops and commercializes lithium-metal batteries for Electric Vehicles.
Mike responded: "Sid, QS looks to me like it ended a major correction from its high at $132.73 (12/22/20) into its $40.62 low (2/01/21), and for the last week or so, has been carving out a potential bottom ahead of lift-off into a powerful rally phase.
Back on November 23, Mike Paulenoff alerted MPTrader members to a long opportunity in Occidental Petroleum Corp. (OXY).
OXY, he explained, stood to benefit from the Biden Administration's "much less friendly" view of fossil fuels than its predecessor, which could result in reduced output amid increasing demand, thus lifting the price of crude oil.
Plus, technically he saw the stock in a developing multi-month base formation, and emerging from a significant double-bottom low.
This past Monday, after Vaxart, Inc. (VXRT) popped above key technical resistance, Mike Paulenoff posted a timely update alerting MPTrader members to a potentially significant upside breakout:
"VXRT has again climbed into heavy, but very consequential resistance from 8.30 to 9.45," Mike wrote. "If VXRT can chew through the resistance zone, it will be poised for upside continuation that projects 14-15 in a 'normal' market.
On Thursday of this past week, Mike Paulenoff alerted MPTrader members of a long set-up in CRM (salesforce.com), writing:
"After making yet another new multi-month corrective low at 212.98 last Friday, CRM has turned up and has climbed above initial resistance at 219.50-220.00, which triggered an initial 'long alert' in my work."
Mike added: "My work argues that CRM has turned up, and has triggered a preliminary buy signal.
