About market, tonight IBD is changing its market outlook to "market under pressure". Nasdaq internals were horrible with 5.44 to 1 in selling volume, this may have been overdone. We should see some stability in Nasdaq going forward. Today's selling was pretty intense & sudden sharp drop in high beta stocks. Stay with stronger stocks & prune weak stocks which is what i did today.

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

Hey Saleem,

Despite the runup, YHOO seems nicely priced still given its stakes in Alibaba and Yahoo Japan. The only risk is the overbought nature of the stock. Do you see any opportunity here?

Hi Stocktrader,

YHOO is overbought, besides its BABA Stake not much is happening in its core business...I think it is near top of its range..
My 2 cents.
