About market, TAPE showed strength on higher oil prices. IBD still saying that "uptrend under pressure". Friday is all about Jobs data, expectations are for job growth of 230,000, many are predicting a miss, which will be taken as positive as Fed interest hike will be delayed.TAPE wants to move UP and any weakness in your preferred stock needs to be bought.

Hey Saleem,

Bought HUN @ 23.52 based on their plans for capacity expansion (indicating business strength), cyclical exposure, and good valuation.

Hi Stocktrader,

Added 35% BBRY @ $10.03.

Good luck with HUN.

Hey Saleem,

Bought X @ 23.033 based on amazing execution in a tough environment. As oil stabilizes (rises?) and world economic activity picks back up, this has major leverage to the upside.

Hey Saleem,

Good luck with BBRY!

I am disappointed I have no financials exposure. I almost bought GS a couple days ago--would have worked for sure.

Hey Saleem,

One of the few things I did this week was trim some YELP @ 57.62 yesterday. Story is in transition although final profitability and valuation is likely still intact. Investors just need to digest that YELP is moving from user/client growth to monetization, and that will likely be bumpy. A partnership with a payments platform would be huge--ordering from local businesses via mobile is probably the way to go for these guys.

Correction: "One of the few things I did well* this week"

Hi Stocktrader,

Good luck on X.

It was a good move to trim YELP.

Hey Saleem,

Bought PANW @ 124.867.

These guys are going to have a spectacular quarter, and while some of that might be built in already, I think this is a decent price to establish a position.
