S&P 500 closed @ 1358.44.....OVERSOLD????

S&P 500 went to 1351.56 but closed @ 1358.44......

Are we deeply OVERSOLD on Wall Street ????

Are we OVERSOLD in Solar stocks???

Are we OVERSOLD in Techs????

Are we OVERBOUGHT in Ag,Oil,Coal,Steel????

Next few days MAY give us the answer to the above trading questions......

When I analyze any sector......I personally ask a basic question???

What is the RISK/REWARD ratio in any sector......

Markets have been TOUGH lately......so it is more CRITICAL to buy stocks where risk/reward ratio is very compelling.....

Do NOT forget to LOCK GAINS whenever you see it...JUST TAKE IT !!!!

My portfolio remains the same RIMM,SOL & MRVL......

I doubled my position in MRVL today cost went down to $16.48...

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

PS.....I am leaving for Houston 11 AM wed for a week.......to see my mother....who has made good progress in the last 24 hours...thanks to all well wishers.

I will TRY to update BLOG...IF I can access a reasonable computer.....otherwise my next BLOG posting will be Thursday 11.30AM on June 19th......

In the meantime wishing all of you "Profitable trading/investing"

Hello All,

Another poor showing in the market.

Due to higher oil prices? Old news.
Due to Fed report on reserves? Naw.
Due to possible rate hike? Huh?
The Fed has some more treats for the financial crowd? Hmmmmmm.
The only way to get the treats is drive the market lower. How else to entice the Fed to make a move?
Prices are at a discount and appear oversold IMHO. But I've been wrong before. Any other suggestions?

Best Regards

Now we are moving in the right direction!!! Sen Joe Lieberman is putting forth a bill that would limit institutional involvement in commodities!! YES this should help ease the pressure on oil and other commodities! My best to your mom Saleem!! God bless you!

standardshigh said...

Hi Charlie,

Yes i agree,,,everyone is trying to TALK the price of oil down with vague threats of action. I feel for the people in Europe paying $9 a gallon. They are in deep trouble.

Best Regards

Hi,
Hope you are doing well.

I am out all the stock ,Bought JASO but sold immediately,Took loss 5 cent.

I am buying CAEI , It is a strong company and it is in energy conservation business,Also they got ISO certificate from germony.One more thing they move from AMEX to NASDAQ.Old symmbol was RCH.Ceo ring the bell today.

PL. let me know your input.I bought 2000 shares today.

standardshigh said...

Hi Dsinbull,

Caei China? This is a new issue. The action today is not encouraging. The future may hold better days. I thought of buying some myself, but I am sitting tight until the market shows some direction.

Best Regards

Hi Saleem,

Wish your mom a nice recovery and you have a wonderful time with her in the U.S.

The secondary offering price is out. Please follow the link:

http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1417892/000119312508129626/df1a.htm

It seems to have a confusion in the market now since 1 ADS equals 2 shares so the offering price should be 24.14. But why it is in free fall mode now.

Would someone explained this while Saleem is out. Thanks.

Michael

Hi All -

Any thoughts on RIMM - we had a nice day on Friday bt with earnings coming up soon think we'll see a run-up based on that?

Good luck to all,
Ad

standardshigh said...

Hi Dsinbull,

I like solar, yet its tied with oil and oil looks like its peaking. V on the other hand is a keeper, name brand with growth, strong stock. I bought more.

Best Regards
