About market, TAPE confirmed this rally by closing higher two days in a row. Nasdaq closed above 50 DMA in almost 2 months. Volume was higher today. I am expecting higher close again & should see new all time highs in S&P 500 ahead of memorial day long weekend. Staying diversified has helped my portfolio to balance any negative TAPE due to earnings reaction which @ best has been unpredictable. Staying the course with conviction is the only way to counter wild swing in stocks & market.

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

Hey Saleem,

Bought AXLL @ 44.474.

With new home sales doing better, these guys should benefit. Also, natural gas prices have eased back some. This could be a nicely leveraged play with many things hitting positively right now.

Hey Saleem,

Bought WLH @ 26.018.

It seems like it has formed a nice base for breakout possibilities.
