Constructive close today....NICE !!!!

Despite rumour of European downgrade whole day, markets stayed within its uptrend line.

Before we closed we learned that France indeed was downgraded a full notch to to AA.

Markets actually improved on French news & closed near best level of the day.

Markets are displaying tremendous resiliency even when multiple country downgrades were being talked about.

S&P 500 went to 1277.58 @ low of the day, but we closed @ 1289.09 down 6.41 points.

RSI @ 61.41......

VIX closed @ 20.98 UP 2.49%, staying near lows, great for equity.

Oil closed @ $98.70

Gold closed @ $1630.80

Internals of the markets were negative.

New 52 wk highs held their lead, 93 in NYSE & 37 in Nasdaq

Portfolio AMZN,CNQ,CMG,COH,LVS,RIMM,RVBD.....

Stocks which had $ gains or more included CMG ( new all time high), AMZN,
AGU,FIO,PCLN......

Most world markets are open on Monday including Canada, while US is closed to observe Martin Luther King Jr day.

Next post by 2 PM on Sunday.

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

PS..bought Blackberry Playbook with 64 GB memory, price was more than right in Canada. Extremely stunning tablet. Form Factor is simply awesome.Graphics unbelievable. Dont know why it was labelled a failure.

Congratulations on the Blackberry Playbook with 64 GB memory,

I bought the daughter an Ipad--she loves it
I have no feed back form her--so no comments
From what Consumer Reports says the Ipad rules!

I will get one some day
Sold my Itouch and got the Apple smart phone, expensive to use all features

I will NOT pay for all text message plans and $14 per month min plan for texting
Good luck on using the tablet--from what I hard they are all game changers

Happy Holliday
We may go see the movie, ticker solider taylor spy

Hi C,

I paid $338 including taxes for 64 GB....best purchase i have done in a long time...Playbook is being promoted big time by RIMM....

Same thing was sold for $699 +13% tax in Canada before...talk of deep deep discount.........

I am thrilled to use it..have set up all my favourite websites......

Today i am going to transfer all my music & Photos from desktop.....64 GB is lot of SSD storage.....

Enjoy your time @ movie.

For the life of me I do not understand the differences between the 2 playbooks/tablets

and huge storage space

Hi C,

YES..64 GB is all flash..which was the highest they could produce until few days ago..now highest is 128 GB......

IF you look @ Playbook..you will like its format much better with same MAX 64 GB Flash Memory also known as SSD...which matches biggest Ipad.....

Also i can use playbook with NO ADDITIONAL cost...or additional monthly cost.....

My internet covers WiFi usage in my flat monthly cost of $83 per month for Satellite,Internet, phone & long distance...all for $83 per month...best FIOS fee
