About market, TAPE was stronger than anybody's expectations, excellent price appreciation. Only knock @ the start of any rally is lower volume which is to be expected. Indices have made a very strong support & is ready to make series of higher highs. Dow & S&P 500 are @ new all time high on a closing basis. Stay with your max exposure & it should work out very good.

Hey Saleem,

I really like the housing and housing-related plays right now. I think with interest rates low, jobs and economic activity/sentiment improving, and housing stock sentiment poor, I think these guys could really outperform. I have WLH (homebuilder), Z (housing internet), and AXLL (building materials) to take advantage of this dynamic.

Hi Stocktrader,

You are exposed to Housing with good plcks.....

LEN is my favorite in this group.

Z looks very strong in charts...

Hey Saleem,

Yes, LEN had big short interest so is moving first. WLH has better earnings power, but needs time to get the longs accumulating.
