Your minting money in BIDU

Lets go LEN

Did you see drop in old MCD
I am so surprised that SINA is lousy

I did buy some KMP

I open a tiny account with E-trade--e trade gives $$ and free trades for new accounts. If I do not like em I will switch to Fidelity

Hey Saleem,

My two horseman, CLF and PANW, both showed good price action today. I feel so comfortable with the portfolio, I'll have a hard time stepping it back next week. Hopefully we get some more great run before then.

Hi Stocktrader,

Your PANW rocketed UP huge....do not monitor @ all.

TAPE giving clear message to "undecided"

Hey Saleem,

Yes, this rally is powerful. Even this "rest" day was unchanged--huge positive.

After 4-5 more days of grinding higher that I expect, I plan to be much more cautious next Wednesday by close ahead of CSCO's report. It sounds about right to take a real rest at that time anyways if the S&P is another 30-40 points higher.

Lots of China data tonight--expectations are so low that it can only be good reaction, right? :)

Hey Saleem,

About PANW...absolute disruptive technology in cloud network security/firewall protection. There's a reason it is the second largest stock in my portfolio despite having IPO'd less than a month ago--these guys are on their way to being huge.
