International Business Machines (IBM) … too much of a good thing. IBM is up twice as much as the market the past 12 months (and, per chance, twice as much as the S & P 500 Technology Sector and the NASDAQ 100 Index). The stock is trading in an increasingly steep and uncorrected uptrend and far above its 150-day moving average. So far above, in fact (25% above) it is at present further away from its 150-day moving average than at any time in the past 20 years. At this point, the idea is to take measures, before – as the expression goes – somebody does it for you. Trim, sell calls, do something. And those engaged in the business of short selling, IBM is judged to be a good candidate. -Carter Braxton Worth For actionable recommendations via email and live nightly videos become a member at worthcharting.com DISCLOSURES: (None) All opinions expressed by the CNBC Pro contributors are solely their opinions and do not reflect the opinions of CNBC, NBC UNIVERSAL, their parent company or affiliates, and may have been previously disseminated by them on television, radio, internet or another medium.
