About market, TAPE is under tremendous selling pressure so any positive close is a major sign of strength. Seasonally we are in a weak period, earnings are out mostly. Most stocks whether Chinese or Cloud based are under intense selling pressure. It is important not to be concentrated in any one sector, diversification & focus on strong sector should offset any market weakness. It is becoming a "stock picker" market, so do your analysis on a daily basis.
BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

Hey Saleem,
Well...after two days and the subsequent price action, I think the market has decided nothing is wrong. I'll be getting more long today with either stock buys or closing my TZA hedge or both.

Hey Saleem,
Sold TZA @ 14.64.
With the prospects of a recovering US economy, I'm not sure how the small caps can be held down. One of the things I was counting on was all the issuance, but we are well into the impact of that now--just look at the charts of YELP, FEYE, etc.

Hey Saleem,
Sold RALY @ 17.42. It was a mixed report, and the conference call didn't have the enthusiasm of other calls nor others in the cloud space. They are struggling with the costs of growing I want to see better progress here before re-entering. Their best option might be to get bought--I would not be surprised to see them do a bit of shopping around.

Hi Stocktrader,
It was a good move to sell RALY....their EPS picture has worsened...

Hey Saleem,
Bought WLH @ 27.995.
After falling the last couple days post-Fed, I think the housing sector is priced right and I expect a nice Spring selling season.
Stocktrader
Hi Stocktrader,
YES..i agree that spring should bring buyers into housing..pent up demand...i am watching LEN to see where the support is.
Good luck with WLH.
