About market, TAPE was strong going into Fed minutes but took off knowing that there was no surprise. Most pundits are excited about today's strong rally & giving all kinds of explanation for this move. In my opinion, stocks were deeply oversold & needed to be bought before today's jump. With today's jump many stocks are @ fair value already & may not move too much from hereon. Earnings will be a wait & see game which is getting underway.

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

Hey Saleem,

I may have been too hasty in dumping those cyclical. What a great jobless claims number!

Hey Saleem,

Yes. I'm trying not to make any hasty moves, but I definitely need to do some things to adjust the portfolio today.

Hey Saleem,
