About market, TAPE was stronger than headline numbers based on internals. Nasdaq made new high again since 2000. TAPE wants to go higher & in process of making series of new all time highs. It is important to show conviction & stay with your own theme, any hasty move generally backfires in a strong TAPE, I have learned this over & over, again & again.

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

Hey Saleem,

Sold YELP @ 77.205 to take profits.

Something about these cloud/internet stocks tells me they are tired. Maybe I'm reading the low volume wrong, but it's nice to do some selling on a big up day.

Hey Saleem,

Sold KOG @ 14.412 to take profits. This specific chart looks toppy here, and the energy stocks generally are overbought. If oil starts to crack, they could fall more sharply than the market.

Hey Saleem,

Major short squeezes happening...look at the 3-D printers DDD/SSYS (and NFLX). This could send all beta rocketing today.

Hey Saleem,

GTAT is probably one of my best speculative picks in a while. They are in the midst of an industry paradigm shift, and the chart has based for a long time before staging this breakout now. Short interest was huge as of last record.

Hi Stocktrader,

This is a Breakout where shorts are decimated.....

Good luck with GTAT.
