Hey Saleem,

I decided to keep the CF, partly because I expect a decent jobs number tomorrow, but also the fact that CF has outperformed for so many days now that it leads me to believe good things are in store for the company, even if there is a sell-on-the-news reaction.

Trying not to overthink things right now...

Hi Stocktrader,

CF has been "the best stock" in AG sector..no doubt about it....

CF could be a long term hold.....

Good luck !!!!

Hey Saleem,

I am so highly disappointed by the action in OCZ and APKT post earnings that any hold through earnings makes me nervous now. Both those stocks opened nicely higher and just tanked the rest of the day...

Hi Stocktrader,

Post earning TAPE depends on HF take & how they want to play it.

OCZ is coming back nicely....APKT AH & during the day is a major surprise....

BUT..it all depends how you feel about those stocks.

Hey Saleem,

I listened to APKT CC so I feel fine holding.

I missed OCZ CC, but revenue guide up was so huge I didn't think to worry. I'll have to check out the transcript this weekend when I have more time.
