  1. Hey Saleem,

    Sold SPLK @ 44.523 while gone briefly this morning.

    If CRM drop sharply after beating on all metrics, I can't see how SPLK will do anything when it reports next week.

  3. Hey Saleem,

    It looks like a horrible idea so far. Almost all the cloud/internet stocks are moving nicely higher this morning.

    Sooner or later everything recovers from high volume selling.

  5. Hey Saleem,

    I have felt so foolish so many times this year--it's been quite humbling. I'm lucky to be only down ~5% after that +66% last year. I haven't been hurt much by all these missteps.

  9. Hey Saleem,

    The biggest of the mistakes was selling YELP (which was one of the last I sold). Even though I was afraid the market might treat them poorly, and I feel there's a low probability of takeover, the business they have is worth more than $4B eventually, and the opportunity for competition to substantially take business is pretty much over--they have dominated the market now and should only gain strength and recognition over time.

    This is definitely where my next investment will be should I get a chance again.
