MOVE has had strong cyclical winds at its back in recent years, and the stock is up 95% year-to-date. The stock is richly valued, and several red flags hidden in the footnotes raise questions about the company’s ability to justify its stock price. MOVE operates in a niche field with significant competition from companies like Zillow (NASDAQ: Z) and Trulia (NASDAQ: TRLA), not to mention Yahoo (NASDAQ: YHOO), which has its own real estate listing site. Clever earnings management and the recovery in the housing market has helped propel MOVE upward this year, but don’t expect the ride to continue. The company is already lagging its competitors and continuing to lose market share. - [By WWW.DAILYFINANCE.COM]
www.ea.com There were plenty of winners and losers this week, including a merger of two fast-growing real estate website operators and a theme park operator taking another hit. Here's a rundown of the week's smartest moves and biggest blunders. Tesla Motors (TSLA) -- Winner The country's coolest automaker -- and one of the hottest stocks over the past two years -- continues to grow in popularity. The maker of luxury plug-in electric cars posted a better than expected adjusted profit in its latest quarter, with revenue nearly doubling. Tesla is on track to deliver 35,000 of its Model S sedans this year. It also announced on Thursday that it expects to produce 60,000 cars next year as the Model X crossover joins its lineup. Tesla's rich multiples aren't for the squeamish, but the company seems to be revolutionizing the automotive industry. One can only imagine how things will be when it starts rolling out its more reasonably priced Model III car in three years. SeaWorld (SEAS) -- Loser SeaWorld can't seem to catch a break, even when misfortune results in denial. SeaWorld and Southwest Airlines (LUV) are ending their marketing partnership after 26 years. The relationship had Southwest promoting the marine life theme park operator on some of its planes and SeaWorld offering Southwest-branded relaxation and charging stations. Anti-SeaWorld protestors had demonstrated at Southwest's headquarters earlier this year, and more than 32,000 people had signed an online petition at change.org urging the air carrier to end its association with SeaWorld. However, this already unfortunate story makes the cut this week because of SeaWorld's explanation on why the two companies will part ways when the latest contract is up at the end of the year. "With an increasing international visitor base, SeaWorld is looking to focus on new and growing markets in Latin America and Asia, among others," SeaWorld explains in a joint statement with Southwest, almost as if it's saying that

One under-$10 business services player that looks poised for a run higher is Higher One (ONE), which provides technology-based refund disbursement, payment processing and data analytics services to higher education institutions and students. It also provides banking services to campus communities. This stock has been hit hard by the bears so far in 2013, with shares down by 26%.
If you take a look at the chart for Higher One, you'll notice that this stock has been downtrending badly for the last three months, with shares plunging from its high of $11.93 to its recent low of $6.97 a share. During that downtrend, shares of ONE were consistently making lower highs and lower lows, which is bearish technical price action. That said, shares of ONE have recently formed a double bottom chart pattern at $7.05 to $6.97 a share. This stock has now started to rebound sharply off that double bottom and move within range of triggering a near-term breakout trade.
Traders should now look for long-biased trades in ONE if it manages to break out above some near-term overhead resistance at $7.85 a share and then once it clears its 50-day moving average at $8.11 a share with high volume. Look for a sustained move or close above those levels with volume that hits near or above its three-month average action of 196,360 shares. If that breakout triggers soon, then ONE will set up to re-test or possibly take out its next major overhead resistance levels at $9 to its 200-day moving average of $9.77 a share. This stock could even tag $11 a share if that 200-day gets taken out with volume.
Traders can look to buy ONE off weakness to anticipate that breakout and simply use a stop that sits right below some key near-term support at $7.39 a share, or below $7 a share. One can also buy ONE off strength once it takes out those breakout levels with volume and then simply use a stop that sits a comfortable percentage from your entry point.
