TAPE is looking beyond current conflicts......

YES there is Gaza massacre & there is ashes of MH 17...but TAPE is looking ahead to resolution of these disputes in short order.

S&P 500 pulled back 1.65% @ its low, while Nasdaq lost 2.25%, this is remarkable considering worldwide serious issues.

S&P 500 is giving a clear picture of finding higher support & should move to 2000++ area.....

Earnings so far has exceeded expectations which is a very good sign for bulls......

Big cap stocks are in vogue these days & has established leadership position, they are in "breakout mode"

This TAPE is the best TAPE i have observed with small periodic pullbacks.

It is important to maintain exposure & booking of profit is a good idea to buy other bargain stocks.

Even in techs there is rotation, cloud is a bargain now vs being overbought & extended before.

Oil stocks have been the-best performing group to the surprise of me & many so called market timers & seasonality junkies.

Gold Stocks are a good hedge & have broken out, small exposure of 5% to 10% is not a bad idea.

SO....stay engaged in this TAPE & go where money flow is.....

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

Hey Saleem,

I was surprised the AAII numbers got more negative this week. I am with you that the market looks very attractive still.

I will have a huge week of earnings for the portfolio and in many of my favorite/past names. It should be exciting! :)

Hi Stocktrader,

Media can scare traders with 24/7 endless analysis of old conflicts.
Sometimes it is all about Strategy to prolong conflict.

But it can all end with a twist of arm...then photo op and victory of diplomacy...International Politics 101...

Market knows and predict all of the above over and over.
