Markets yoyoing both bulls & bears ???

Markets are extremely frustrating to both "bulls & bears in base building mode"

Bears are looking for a "retest of 11,600 on dow" & bulls are wishing for a clean breakout on the upside........

Guess what...we are getting neither......

Why ????

Because .......after such a sharp & straight line drop...tape NEEDS to build a nice base before it trends higher......

It IS highly encouraging to see that dow is resting comfortably above 12,200......

So much for technical mumbo jumbo......

On the fundamental side...markets are digesting lot of positives & negatives......

Did I say positives ?

Yes I did....

Positives are.... that fed & white house are focussed on any remedial steps to help the economy..

Negatives are sub-prime related mess...which still needs CLARITY.....

So .......we are involved in mud-wrestling......lot of slip & sliding ..but going nowhere FAST !!!

In my portfolio :

AGU UP $2.09

CSIQ down $2.32

CMED down 62 cents

LDK down $2.40

MA UP $2.54

SOLF down 94 cents

@11.22 AM the following are green :

RIMM,POT,MOS,HPQ,BRCM,DELL,VMW,AMAT,GS,ICE,
AAPL,TSO,CTRP,NYX,AMZN,FFIV,NVTL,LRCX.

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

I know what you mean
I sold mt CMED for $350 profit today

I thought that that the market was going down real bad so I booked a profit.
So I was looking at COIN, RIMM, AAPL to put my $$ to work

Looks likr our AGU is busting out just like you said it would--wow what a GREAT call.
Have a good afternoon
