About market, TAPE manged to stay mixed despite profit taking & Greece news near close. Chinese Central Bank has started easing after a gap of two years to stimulate & grow Chinese economy. Greece situation will sort itself out in next few days. TAPE is healthy and day rest is expected after such a huge move in last two days. Given the market volatility, it is important to come up with a game plan and execute that plan well, second guessing is not healthy for your financial health.

Good luck with AAL.

Hey Saleem,

I have been tempted by KORS many days including today. I just worry they stretched too far too fast in this fickle fashion world. I always make sure to walk by their store in the mall to see traffic :)

Hi Stocktrader,

KORS lowered their guidance for this Q and for the whole year, this way then can beat lowered expectations.

Risk / Reward is pretty good near 52 wk low.

Hey Saleem,

Yes, and many analysts coming to the defense today.

You have a great knack of picking up retail at the right time (see LULU!)
