About market, TAPE is all set to make another green close for Thursday. Indices tested support & made lower lows, sometimes this forms support. Jobs report on Friday may have been discounted by the market already as weather has been in news for months which can be explained for any weakness.

Hey Saleem,

Sold all at 40.67 avg just now--great way to start the morning.

It might go further, but that was the easy money part and fundamentals are still challenged.

Hi Stocktrader,

Great move in selling SODA..it was not easy money..it was GUTSY money which involves "contrary analysis" for a quick trade....

Hey Saleem,

It's more the regret of selling last night. I can't justify buying it now.

Hey Saleem,

Bought DATA @ 89.70.

The quarter was absolutely amazing and I think these guys are a perfect fit for someone like IBM or HPQ.

Hey Saleem,

Any thoughts on OCN? The chart and earnings look interesting despite the news today.

Hi Stocktrader,

Normally there is 3 day reaction on any bad news....so it may be a good idea to wait till it OCN is stable...
