Saleem,

I got hit on RVBD. $1 billion for OPNT was not expected.

Will BIDU be fine looking forward?

Hi Michael,

Sorry to hear about RVBD..i say stay in for a turn....

BIDU will be more than OK....i expect BIDU to go green on Thursday.....EPS was a huge beat of 11 cents...China & the world has slowed down big time & BIDU came awfully close to consensus Sales......BIDU is guiding $200K less in Sales...NOT an earth shattering gyuide down....look @ high fliers about their earnings & guidance...then you will feel lot better....

I am staying in BIDU.....

Hi C,

I am currently down 5.07% from my buy price......

Every company has to deal with Chinese slowdown which gives BIDU lot of room to grow within six months...BIDU price today reflects discounted value.

I did not know your buy price for BIDU but assumed that like me your in the red.
I did rebuy SFL ==you may want to join me $15.47 it is
a good entry price for a swing trade at $16-17

best of luck and again thanks for your views on BIDU--I like a price discount

Saleem,

Thanks for your note on RVBD and BIDU. I may enter BIDU soon.

C,

No, I did not sell AAPL. However, I was lucky on AMZN and sold it to take a profit. This was enough to offset the losses on RVBD and AAPL.

Hey Saleem/all,

Good afternoon after a surprise long weekend! CRUS's numbers look pretty good after the bell here--halted until 4:30. It would be nice see a good post-earnings reaction as I've taken a lot of lumps recently (FIO, PANW, GHDX, GWAY, SPLK to name a few!)

Hi Stocktrader,

Please post your recap of CRUS cc.

Good luck !!!

Hey Saleem,

I'll post more when I have better time (kind of crunched at the moment), but I think the reason for the AH sluggishness is the company's guide for a 15% sequential revenue decline in the March quarter. I think some people are suddenly uncomfortable with how much cyclicality there is surrounding Apple product launches.
