About market, TAPE continues its record run with S&P 500 @ new all time high while Nasdaq notched another 14 year high. Nasdaq big caps were the star of the day by showing impressive gains. Dow was the only laggard on record game. Looks like we had a minor flattish day today, but we may be setting UP for a strong day again. Strong stocks are running away towards new highs, giving hope for strength in the TAPE going forward. Internals remained positive for the most part. Calls for pullbacks are not happening.

Hey Saleem,

Sold WDAY @ 89.636.

WDAY is obviously not a SPLK, and I shouldn't try to use it as a replacement at this point. WDAY's TAM is more penetrated, and they are having to spend to try and get into adjacent markets, markets where competition is greater. At their $16B valuation, they are really not an acquisition target, so that potential big upside is not available.

Hey Saleem,

Finally bought SPLK @ 56.537. This could test as low as $48-$50 again, but I'm taking my cues from the huge accumulation during the last two days, plus my belief in the longer term story. This could certainly be a $10B company again given the early stages of growth still...
