Recommendation
This company recently saw a sharp drop in it's stock price that seems to have no particular reason. Taking into account that Continucare provides a very important service and that it's valuation if fairly conservative compared to it's peers in it's sector, an investor should see current price levels as an sign to acquire some of it's publicly traded common stock. There is still some potential downside left so a couple of days might be necessary before opening a position.
Entry strategy
For the cautious investor:
At the time of writing, it is suggested to wait about one or two days before initiating a long position. Keep in mind however that one should buy the stock for 4.25$ or less.
For the risk-taking trader:
The May 2011 5$ call option contract seems to be the right position to take, they can be acquired for 30$ per contract.
Exit Strategy
For the cautious investor:
Sell when the stock reaches 4.75$, or keep it until 5$ if the stock crosses the light resistance level.
For the risk-taking trader:
The contracts should be kept until the underlying reaches around 4.75$, as for the cautious investor.
