Sometimes a stock is hot and other time it just burns. Following are the Fast Money misfires.

On June 9^th the Chairwoman found herself dazzled by the big “Citi”. At the time she said,  "I have a position in Citigroup

[C  Loading...      ()   ] as a proxy for the general financials. I know people say never pick a bottom, but I will build a position overtime.”

Looks like Finerman made her trip to the Citi a little too early. Since her buy recommendation shares slid 15%.

Guy Adami

Terranova’s trade never got the gas. Oil’s up and his trade is down 4%.

I’m still riding this trade, says Terranova.
