Hi Saleem,

Posted that I sold URI on the previous thread you made.

Today's action was confusing throughout the whole day, and didn't leave me with a good feeling after the Fed either. It is a strange day to see both energy/materials and financials rise while the rest of the market dropped. Small caps had a rough day again and technically still look weak.

I am less comfortable than I've been in a while and my 26.6% cash reflects that. This is not a time for speculation--need to have a high comfort level with every position.

Hi Stocktrader,

TAPE has been troubling for almost 3 weeks as evidenced by market internals.

This is a time for extreme caution.

I am glad that you are comfortable with you 26.6% cash.....

Selling position for profit or reducing exposure is the right approach.
