About market, TAPE was under mild selling pressure due to weak data from China & uncertainty about Greece debt. Chinese inflation data is below expectations both @ consumer level & wholesale level. These weakness allows many to buy strong stocks @ lower prices. Internals were neutral in this selling. Hopefully we should get a strong day on Tuesday as it has been an UP & Down market taking turns.

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

Hey Saleem,

Bought NXPI @ 81.00 for more cyclical exposure.

They reported a great quarter that was mostly ignored due to high expectations already. If world economies get better, NXPI should start another move higher after this grinding pattern for months.

Hey Saleem,

Bought a speculative position in TTPH @ 34.389 as my biotech play. There seems to be numerous catalysts for this stock in the new hot sector? Haha, I probably have no idea, but some positive analyst commentary today resonated with me, and I had looked at it a few times in recent weeks.

Hey Saleem,

Added my remaining small amount of cash to HUN @ 23.50. The chart looks constructive, and long term value is highly attractive in my opinion.

Hey Saleem,

Chinese solars are difficult trades--look so cheap, hard to value. Good luck with new pick! :)
