Your Questions About Flowserve and Las Vegas Sands

Time to sort through the "Fast Money" inbox and answer some of your questions:

MARGE FROM ALEXANDRIA: "Flowserve — a former favorite. Went long on options at the bottom, largely because of the Chairwoman's previous comments. Stock is up nicely. What about the outlook?"

To that, Karen Finerman of Metropolitan Capital Advisors said her firm still likes Flowserve and still a position in it. The risk reward has definitely changed, though. She thinks its next quarter will be good, but not as good as it has been and recommends lightening up a bit.

WILLIAM FROM STEWARTSVILLE: "I own LVS and just love their classy casino in Bethlehem, PA. Why so much volatility in LVS in recent weeks? Are the shorts squeezing LVS?"

Jon Najarian, co-founder of optionMONSTER.com, the stock had a huge run. A lot of people took profits, so he thinks it will continue to fall to the mid-$40 range and could then pick up again.
