bluebird bio, Inc. (NASDAQ:BLUE) had a big day on Thursday. It pulled back after the breakout four days ago, and held the moving average and the prior breakout point. It exploded, and on Thursday, it ran really hard, jumping 12.35, or 11%, to 124.85, on 2.8 million shares traded. In the last two days, it has gone from 102.80 to 125.60, about 23 points. Thursday’s high is right where it was back in June. I’m looking for this stock to make a run to 140-44. I think if it gets some back and forth action in the next few days, that might be a buying opportunity. The long-term chart looks incredible. It has 12.35 days to cover .

Swing trade Corcept Therapeutics Incorporated (NASDAQ:CORT) is working out great, gaining 1.13, or 7%, to 16.67, on 3 million shares traded. It’s been up four days in a row and reached 17.06, which was my swing target. My next target is 19. It has 6 days to cover .

KEMET Corporation (NYSE:KEM) just keeps rocking, up another 83 cents, or 3.6%, to 23.91, on 2.7 million shares traded on Thursday, and reaching a high as 24.17. I gave this one to you last Nov-Dec at 5.25, and its up 300% since then, and continues to fly. My next target is 29-30.

Loxo Oncology, Inc. (NASDAQ:LOXO), a swing trade of ours, was up 4.18, or 5%, to 83.40, on 348,016 shares traded on Thursday. It is right up against the double-top from June. If it gets through there, it could rock up to 100-05. Stay tuned on this one. It has 15.7 days to cover .
