Before open, LULU reports, expectations are :

Guidance expected Q1 Sales $441.88 million, EPS 39 cents

Despite extreme pessimism in LULU from pundits, i expect a beat on EPS.......

About market, TAPE was "ugly" today and closed @ lowest level fractions included, S&P has close @ absolute lowest point 3 day's in a row, an extreme rarity in any TAPE. Dow & S&P 500 both closed below 50 DMA, IBD has changed its market outlook to "market under pressure". I think we are approaching an excellent "buying environment"........

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

Hey Saleem,

Swapped M @ 63.40 for C @ 50.80.

I like how C came through on the stress tests, and it looks like the yield curve is steepening against some people's expectations.

Hey Saleem,

Sold NXPI @ 96.007.

I may have exited a bit early today, but I think the semis will remain heavy and wanted to free up the cash for other investments.

Hey Saleem,

Added to SPLK @ 59.331.

I needed some more business/cloud software exposure after RHT's nice report, but missed the move on PANW/PFPT this morning. I think SPLK is flying under the radar as other software areas get more press coverage and is still in very early innings of growth.
