About market, TAPE was under selling pressure due to run up in Dow & S&P 500. Nasdaq continued its weakness & high beta remained under selling pressure. Today's close in negative is quite healthy as many skeptics increased their short exposure & weak hand got taken out. I expect next 2 days to be healthy & positive for longs.

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

Hey Saleem,

It feels like something really bad is brewing today.

Hi Stocktrader,

Sometimes markets get very sloppy...today it feels like that.

I will not worry too much until it breaks key technical level.....

Today could be the final flush?

Hey Saleem,

It feels kind of like that flash crash day--where traders are reluctant to make any moves making liquidity low and the treasury market going counter to what the data is showing...confusion rules at the moment which could succumb to fear. Lots of day ahead though--maybe it all turns out great instead.

Hey Saleem,

Ok, finished out with a little more TZA @ 18.938. I feel comfortable enough with the portfolio for now. Let's see what happens today and tomorrow.
