The Latest Picks That Paid – Friday July 17th

Our traders are good but you knew that. Check out their latest picks that paid in a feature we call “Quicker Than The Ticker."

Karen Finerman

On July 6^th the Chairwoman suggested that choosy moms choose.... err, Children’s Place. “And the reason that I like it,” she said, ”is because I love their target customer. It's a mother and mothers are loathe to cut out spending for their kids.”

Finerman’s maternal instincts really paid off. Since she recommended getting long shares are up 16%.

Jared Levy

On May 29^th the Strategist sensed that crude had run its course. “What I’m a little bit afraid of here is a little bit of an overbaked situation in oil,” he said. “At the end of the day, the fundamentals really do come to roost. And the fundamentals aren't there with oil. “

Levy knows when to play and when to walk away. Oil fell 10% since he suggested parking money elsewhere.

Joe Terranova

On July 8^th the Liquidator recommended a down-market trade which headed straight up. “I think the consumer is still looking for basic items at the lowest possible price,” he said. “So Kohl's work well.”

Terranova found a retail bargain. Shares of Kohl’s are up 9% since his call.

Pete Najarian

On July 1^st the Pit Boss spotted an energy trade that was bursting with upside. “Look at Peabody,” he said. “These guys are exporting to Asia where coal demand is expected to see explosive growth. That's where coal's going to surge and you're already seeing it in the imports already.”

Najarian can never sit still and neither could this trade. Shares of Peabody climbed 12% since Pete made this pick.

Now that’s Fast Money
