About market, TAPE was very erratic went DOWN then way UP then way DOWN. All indices are below 50 DMA and made lower lows. Technically we are looking text book bad, BUT we are awfully close to big time support through RSI...RSI 30 has been a magnet to make a move UP. Many technicians look @ below 30 as absolute buying opportunity. Fed should realize the gravity  and impact of weak Russian currency & for a change show some leadership to assist in dealing with worldwide weakness. I expect Fed statement & conference call to "stay the course & verbage to support markets"

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

Hey Saleem,

I feel like everything is a buy based on oversold conditions, but I'm fearful that is a mixed bag when it comes to fundamentals--look at FDX. What to do?

Hey Saleem,

Bought AAL @ 46.458.

It is around a support level and I want to be involved in good relative strength companies on dips. Nothing has been better than the airlines--it's not like oil is suddenly going to spike $10, right?
