About market, TAPE continued its march towards higher highs, S&P 500 is above 50 DMA alongwith Dow, Nasdaq is next to conquer, its only 31 points away. Tonight IBD is changing its markets outlook to " market in confirmed uptrend " Dow has been UP 5 days in a row. When VIX reaches 15 area, market will be @ fair value. Rotation needs to be in focus as first mover stocks need a rest.

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

Hi Saleem,

Sold XON @ 36.00 to take profits.

I really don't trust the speculative biotech stocks yet. It seems like there's a lot better options for institutional money right now given the reflationary environment.

Hi Saleem,

Bought GM @ 32.90

I kind of hate myself for buying after such a run, but valuation and momentum appear to be working here along with a nice buyback and dividend support. GM is the beneficiary of the Volkswagen problem as well as lower taxes for auto sales in China (I think I heard +20% YoY during Golden Week). The stock seems off today in profit taking only and therefore could be a good entry point.

Hi Saleem,

I'm looking for maybe a strong close and Monday morning for BABA. I hope to trim my overweight around $72, but may keep the standard position size. I'm too enamored with the prospects of a fully-connected China.

Hi Saleem,

Good luck with TSLA. The trade is too tricky for me here, but you have had a great track record in both TSLA before and your recent pickups.
