QuoteI got this from another service I have what do you guys think?
First of all don't forget the #1 rule of this board which says the title has to be just the ticker symbol.
Or else, to get attention, people will put ever growing titles, for example "Outstanding Pick: XYZ", or "XYZ to the moon" and stuff like that. Just the symbol, we need to give all stocks an equal opportunity.
(Accordingly, I changed the title from "GLNG target $32" to "GLNG")

This is the first time I look at GLNG so I know nothing about the stock. Your reasoning for buying is:
1 - Short interest is high
On my service I have 6.3% of shares issued and outstanding sold short, which doesn't look high. But it's 17% of the free float, which is more relevant. However, this could only be used for short term purposes. I wouldn't dare to say a $1.1 B market cap stock would move 80% to the upside just because of this. Is it possible that the bears have good reasons behind their actions? Most stocks that go down a lot are heavily shorted.
2 - MACD is showing strength
The MACD you're using is a 24 period one, which is a short term technical indicator. Let's see the results the last couple of times this particular MACD "showed strength":
A - The MACD said buy in December 21, 2007, when the stock closed at $21.52. Then it said sell
in January 11, 2008, when the stock closed at $19.69. -8.5% return.
B - Buy again in January 31st, 2008, at $20.65. Sell in March 3, 2008, price was $18.46. Return was -10.6%.
Now, I'm not saying GLNG won't go to $32, I don't have a clue, I'm just saying that your reasoning for believing this will happen is flawed.
Anyway, good luck if you decide to follow this pick :)
