'Fast Money' Portfolios of the Week

 

Fast Money's Options Trades & Activity: The traders have noticed some unusual options activity in a number of stocks. On Tuesday's "Fast Money" show, Pete Najarian told viewers: "Options volume suggests to me that Harley-Davidson(HOG) could make a sharp move higher. There's speculation that the motorcycle maker could be a takeover target for private equity firm KKR." The Fast Money's Options Trades & Activity portfolio includes EMC(EMC) and Nike(NKE).

Fast Money's Top Coal Stock Trades: Massey Energy(MEE) agreed to buy privately held company Cumberland Resources, to boost its steel-making coal reserves. With the coal sector clearly in play, how should you trade this? On Tuesday's "Fast Money" show, Guy Adami told viewers: "If you're looking for a trade in the space, I'd look at Walter Energy(WLT)." The Fast Money's Top Coal Stock Trades portfolio includes Patriot Coal(PCX) and Plum Creek Timber(PCL).

Fast Money's Weak Euro Trades: The crew is watching the action in the euro after the EU said it was ready to consider a bailout for Greece. On Monday's "Fast Money" show, Tim Seymour told viewers: "Buy Germany here because they're going to benefit from a weaker euro. And it will continue to get weaker, and there will be no deal for Greece." The Fast Money's Weak Euro Trades portfolio includes Daimler AG(DAI) and Syngenta(SYT).

Fast Money's Oil Acting Up Trades: The traders want you to put a few energy names on your radar after the latest data showed that crude inventories unexpectedly dropped last week. On last Wednesday's "Fast Money" show, Joe Terranova told viewers: "You can put on a pairs trade. Go long the Energy Select Sector SPDR ETF(XLE) and short the Consumer Discretionary SPDR ETF(XLY) against it as a bet that higher prices at the pump hurt the consumer." The Fast Money's Oil Acting Up Trades portfolio includes Transocean(RIG) and Tesoro(TSO).
