Financials DOWN & S&P 500 UP 8.71????

S&P 500 went to new 52 week LOW @ 1236.76 but managed to close @ 1253.39 ABOVE previous LOW !!!!

Technically markets are "washed out 10 times over"

There is NO capitulation HIGH volume on hitting new LOWS......

VIX is NOT hitting "proverbial 36 area"

So...It is NOT wise to short a "dull market"

In my portfolio :

AAPL rating 25/45 target $187.77....3G iphone goes on sale midnight around the world...lot of excitement on this mobile medium...lot of new games/applications being rolled out by hundreds of independent developers some are even FREE.....3G iphone actually has a button for new application to browse from.......I expect this 3G iphone to be a huge success and AAPL will get tremendous top-line & bottom-line growth......Halo effect for Macs is a GIVEN.......

SOL rating 100/95 target $17.33.....Looks like SOL is just about ready to move UP........

Today many sectors participated in late rally......

Oil stocks were UP

Gas stocks were UP

Coal stocks were UP

Steels stocks were UP

Ag came along for the ride also

Gold stocks were UP

Mining stocks were UP

US Solar rocketed UP...Chinese solar were barely green except for strength in LDK......

Select techs showed strength also.......

So...who cares.....that financials tanked AGAIN !!!!!

Looks like markets are "on the verge of a MAJOR RALLY"

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

lately, you will see that we have been selling off on thursdays, but not today... so it looks like, today might be a turnaround thursday instead of a terrible thursday... it all depends on GE tomorrow... good luck to everyone...!!

Looking like a down day today!

My VISA is hurting, AAPL looking week here, I hope J Cramer Lemmings do not follow hi advice and sell AAPL and buy AT&T. APPL has gotta rule. Look ahte long line of people ready to Buy Buy

Hey all, get some Natural gas plays and some shares of a driller
Example: PX, GMXR, CHK, SWN.. I own HAL the best of breed in the big boys!
You need a tad of diversification

Good Luck all
