  2. Saleem,

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

    Will BIDU be fine looking forward?

  3. 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.....

  5. 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.

    thanks so much for feedback on BIDU

    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

  8. 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.

  10. 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!)

  12. 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.
