Trade Alert: Sell JAZZ

By Scott Chan • May 16, 2018

Sell Jazz Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: JAZZ).

As you know, Brain Trust Profits (BRAIN) has merged with Profit Catalyst Alert (PCA), managed by Linda McDonough.

PCA has sold JAZZ today.

The stock price had risen above Brain Trust Profits’ suggested buy-up-to price of $160 and was a “hold.” In light of PCA selling JAZZ, we are closing the position in the legacy BRAIN portfolio as well.

I find these mergers so confusing!

“As you know, Brain Trust Profits (BRAIN) has merged with Profit Catalyst Alert (PCA), managed by Linda McDonough. ”

Where was this stated? I don’t think I saw it in PCA. If you are going to merge services is it possible to actually merge the alerts on the website and make the obsolete service go away?

Dear Lisa,

The alert was sent out on April 27:
https://www.investingdaily.com/brain-trust-profits/articles/41897/brain-trust-profits-joins-forces-with-profit-catalyst-alert

You should have been getting alerts from PCA since that time.

If not, please let me know and I will ask customer service to investigate.

Scott,

I am a lifetime member of the Wealth Society so I am inundated with alerts from all the services. But to be frank, I have not been extensively reading the alerts from you and Stephen Leeb because I have been with ID since 2014 and my trading is primarily options focused so I have been concentrating on OFI, VT and PCA. When one works full time, it is a lot of stuff to read so I have not added in much of the new items, more from lack of time, than lack of interest or anything. I was more commenting on the fact that Linda made no mention of the merger in any of her alerts.

Dear Lisa,

From PCA’s perspective, the merger doesn’t affect what Linda’s doing very much. She’s added a few picks from BRAIN. But other than that, it’s business as usual so I think that’s why she didn’t mention anything.

My mention of the merge is really to legacy BRAIN subscribers.

And thank you for being a long-time Wealth Society member! Happy investing!
