About market, TAPE staged an oversold bounce on low volume. TAPE may remain erratic & we have to watch for direction. Nasdaq is well above 50 DMA which may be telling us that there is strength in some techs, overall direction for other stocks may be challenged. This remains a trading market & profit may be difficult to keep unless you book it quickly.

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

Hey Saleem,

I think the geopolitical events are mostly risked to the better now after some digestion, and good July economic data allays my fears of a slowdown in the US somewhat.

Hi Stocktrader,

I feel August and September will be choppy....Chinese economy and conflicts are the main issue.
