27% profit every 20 days?
This is what Nic Chahine averages with his option buys. Not selling covered calls or spreads… BUYING options. Most traders don’t even have a winning percentage of 27% buying options. He has an 83% win rate. Here’s how he does it.
In a report published Wednesday morning, Stifel analyst James Albertine commented onCarMax Inc (NYSE: KMX), after a few investor meetings with the company’s management. Albertine said to be “encouraged by management's humility, in a sense, to constantly refine existing programs and to dial-back pilot
programs when results appear insufficient to merit further investment.”

Stifel maintains a Buy and a $71 price target on the stock, which currently trades below $63.
Growth Thesis
According to the report, Stifel believes that the CarMax “growth thesis is on track, as results from existing site renovations (front of store only at this point at 6-7 locations) and small store format roll-outs (we count 5 to date) meeting or exceeding management expectations.” While the firm’s analysts consider that “updated technologies and strategic operational changes (i.e. add'l workstations, structural modifications, personnel relocation within stores) will help improve customer conversion rates,” they also suspect that “small store format techniques will also yield material expense leverage when strategically applied to larger format stores.”
The Wall Street research firm also pointed out the potential of online wholesale auctions, especially for the longer term.
Bullishness Throughout
Other important research firms and investors are also bullish on CarMax. Last week, Oppenheimer named it amongst its top stock picks going into this earnings season and, a week earlier, Jim Cramer recommended the stock on CNBC's Mad Money, as used cars with bad gas mileage are more attractive when gasoline is cheap.
