About market, German courts on Wednesday, should give its blessing to Germany's role in ECB financing.Thursday, Fed should "improve their language" in their statement. All this should be a positive catalyst for the market. I suggest stay engaged till we see a defined reversal in the market.Near 1500 we may see hesitation.
BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

Hey Saleem,
ReplyDeleteAfter two days of rest and German court uncertainty removed, I look forward to a good day tomorrow. I am definitely more worried about Thursday and a lose/lose Fed scenario. Also, after the bell tonight, TXN's mid-quarter update was not very inspiring, and pre-announcements from STLD, PCAR, and XRTX (which caused weakness in NTAP?) were rough.
I'm certainly nervous here after such a long, good run. I'm making my "to-sell" list tonight although I'm always more hesistant to do it than think about it!

ReplyDeleteI keep saying that it is not over till the fat lady sings
PM DOW up +$40...
APPLE took a little hit may drop some tonight or do a pop after announcement like it always does.
I say get some on any weakness

Hi Stocktrader,
ReplyDeleteNothing wrong in having a sell strategy.
It is all about your own comfort level & execute accordingly.
Good luck in your hour of decision.
Saleem
Hey Saleem,
ReplyDeleteSold YELP at $26.34222 and FIO at $28.49. YELP is losing the catalyst today (AAPL maps), and FIO has really struggled the last couple of days as well as the XRTX warning (although probably not serious, still a sentiment thing a little).
I'll be looking for more opportunities to sell as they arise.

Hi Stocktrader,
ReplyDeleteGood move with your reasoning on YELP & FIO.

ReplyDeleteExcellent call on APPLE
Generally on iphone launch day...AAPL goes UP, then starts to fade into announcement ...then sharp down...then some recovery....that is the trend based on past launch.....
BUT it can change its pattern ..just to prove me wrong......
You the man!!!
We now have an upgrade at $1,600.
they claim new products launches and 50 million sales of new iPhone
wow
