Saleem,

I picked up some more BIDU at 128. it has been weak, but it can turn up anytime. I also bought back AUY at 15. Like what you said never wrong when booking profits. I don't know if Gold still a good hedge or not. Well if you sell it, please inform. Thanks.

CLF was a disaster for me. However, I am holding tight. It may be reaching bottom.

Hey Saleem,

We've just experienced an amazing 8+% drop in 48 hours. Although there may be a little more to come, the repricing has to be almost complete for now.

Hold on tight! :)

Saleem,

BIDU broke all technical supports and it seems that there is more to come. Is that a bad sight? Thanks.

Saleem,

Thanks for your comment. It is very tough. I had managed to limit my lost by last couple of days, they have been in disarray.

Stocktrader,

Yesterday, your call was correct about the sell off in the end of the day. How's about today? Thanks.

Hey Michael,

It's a bit tricky, but I'm not sure people want to be short risk into tomorrow after the latest EU headline, plus the corporate and economic news was decent/good. You may see the combination of traders short covering and fund managers dipping their toe in.

My base case is a rally into close, but of course anything could happen.

Stocktrader,

Thanks for your comment. I don't hold you on to that call. You had made many correct moves before, so I just want to learn of what's your thoughts. I have been happy to find Saleem's blog with all constructive comments and help readers to make $$$$. Thanks again.

Hey Michael,

I hate to pile on to a call that already isn't working, but this is a classic setup for a 3:30 rally...would be nice :).

Hi Saleem,

I hope the visit to the doctor went well.

Best health wishes!

Michael said...

Saleem,

As always, wish you all the best!

Reading your Sunday blog, you expected the sell off through Wednesday and it happened like what you predicted. I wonder why you did not sell and reduce your exposure when uncertainty was high? I did reduce my exposure, but not enough for this brutal market. Where do we go from here? Thanks.
