About market, TAPE showed strength by reversing losses after open and closing near high of the day. CMF finally showing green which is a big improvement in internals of this market. Chinese Flash PMI has little significance tonight as China has embarked on stimulating their economy since latest easing of lending. Hopefully we have better reaction to earnings in AH of Thursday to have a strong Friday's close.

Hi Saleem,

Sold YELP @ 50.62 to take profits.

Hi Saleem,

I thought the GM conference call was very positive. They are laser focused on profitability and investing intelligently into their business. They talked about buying back shares as soon as they possibly could, and how the $5B buyback announced was only the "first tranche". They addressed the issues with the revenue/earnings miss, of which the "known" trouble areas of South America and Russia were highly contributing and a higher-than-expected tax rate hurt.

Overall, I think this pullback could be a great opportunity given the valuation, buyback, and dividend.
