About market, TAPE continues its melt up by making new highs in S&P 500 & Dow. China HSBC final PMI came in @ 49.4 vs flash estimate of 49.7, this is another number which may be the low point in Chinese economic scene. I am expecting this rally to broaden out as laggard may come into play.

Hey Saleem,

I was wrong about the car and airline numbers. Early reports out of Chrysler and Delta show strong numbers. I'll just have to be a buyer up here for AAL and GM...

Hey Saleem,

Trimmed SPLK @ 41.544 and sold CTRL @ 17.13.

Given the great numbers from traditional industries and stocks, I fear pressure on the software/internet stocks still, and therefore trimmed SPLK back some.

Based on learning more about the home ecosystems and CTRL's products, I don't have the confidence to hold this anymore. The area is being commoditized quickly, so there's a large chance for P/E contraction despite good growth metrics right now.

Hey Saleem,

Bought GS @ 160.36.

They appear to be expanding their business lines into other areas (including some of those working for MS right now). With an improving chart, I like the stock, and may pare back MS to even out the exposure.
