About market, TAPE looks tired and internals are so so.Dow closed @ new all time high and S&P 500 missed by few ticks. It is important to book profit as market may pull back to regain strength. Mixed TAPE is a tell tale of fatigue. Jobs report may pressure Thursday's trade. Earnings are very mixed in former leaders.

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

Hey Saleem,

I've been working on sell BALT all morning. Results were uninspiring and they didn't have really positive comments about the dry bulk market going forward. When the CEO expects "choppy" trade in the fourth quarter, it makes me nervous.

I was able to sell 1/3rd right at open for 3.50, but sold the other 2/3rds finally now at 3.33.

Hey Saleem,

Sold AKS @ 6.21.

Given the negative sentiment surrounding the steel sector, I don't see how it can rebound into year end despite great operational execution. I'll be more interested if it regains the 200 DMA again.
