About market, TAPE has been steady with a bullish bias. S&P 500 on its way to take out much dreaded 1420 area. Friday is Jobs Report, expectations are 93 K, some estimate are 80K....actual numbers may be well below consensus & market may ignore completely...it is the momentum which matters now & Fiscal Cliff may be in the process of getting an agreement.

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

Hey Saleem,

I just realized ELOQ was under pressure due to tax selling from cliff consequences. It IPO'd for $10. I wish I would have figured this out sooner--I might have pulled a sell/buyback move and saved $$$...selling probably not done even yet.

Hi Stocktrader,

Have you sold ELOQ already?

Hey Saleem,

No I haven't. At this point I'd just be guessing at a trading bottom. Instead I'd rather hold for the fundamental story (which includes a possible buyout) and ignore the next couple weeks of tax shuffling.

Hi Stocktrader,

I think @ this stage "downside" may be limited in ELOQ......
