Indices closed down .41% to .73%......

TAPE had to deal with weak inflation & M earnings report.

S&P 500 @ 1685.39, low 1684.83

RSI @ 52.24

CMF @ 0.179

Internals were :

Down volume led by 1.58 to 1 in NYSE & 1.27 to 1 in Nasdaq

Declining stocks led by 2.11 to 1 in NYSE & 1.42 to 1 in Nasdaq

Net new 52 wk lows were leading by 143 in NYSE & highs were leading by 91 in Nasdaq

VIX UP 5.93% @ 13.04

Oil @ $106.85

Gold @ $1333.40

AH ER :

NTAP Down 3.47%, CSCO Down 9.62%, NTES UP 5.86%

AH Futures Down

AH Asian Markets Mixed

AH Oil & Gold UP

About market, TAPE was weak & internals were weaker. This IS normal in a strong bull market, TAPE may find support after initial negativity based on CSCO earnings. It may be smart to scoop up bargain @ open. Sector rotation has taken place, factor that in your exposure. Materials & Precious Metals is outperforming.

Hey Saleem,

Added a small amount to FB @ 36.80.

Hey Saleem,

Just went ahead and bought RALY @ 28.876. The stock can move fast and I felt like the market was losing the sell pressure (i.e. hitting bottom for the day).

Hi Stocktrader,

Good move in buying RALY.....FB $36.80 is better price for add-on.
