Hey Saleem,

There's definitely a lot of red on my screen today, but I think some of my stocks may have seen emotional bottoms after being sluggish for weeks.

It was a big disappointment that FB didn't replace DELL in the S&P 500--RIG got those honors.

YY plunged early today on margin fears from a note by an analyst at 86 Research. It has recouped most of those losses to trade down approximately where I'd expect given some other high-beta losers. With a stock growing this fast, I'm not really too concerned about margin yet, so I'll be holding.

Hi Stocktrader,

There has been profit taking on high fliers by some high exposure group like big mutual funds......but most are recovering nicely after selling off.....

I think your confidence is well placed.....

Hey Saleem,

It is tempting to sell LCC ahead of earnings tomorrow as management was likely distracted by the merger delay and litigation and the stock already gained on the heels of DAL's report today.

Hi Stocktrader,

You have good analysis skill to come to that conclusion.....booking profit is good !!!!

Hey Saleem,

I ended up not selling. I figure it'll be a "buy the dip" anyways in anticipation of a positive resolution to the merger litigation, so I'd rather not play the game in case it doesn't drop at all.
