About market, TAPE was under selling pressure when oil took a tumble again, by close indices closed near high of the day. Tuesday is the last day to book gain or losses for 2015, we may see selling again which may be a good time to buy as we should see year end buying on Wednesday & Thursday. Think 2016 now and see what stocks should be in your portfolio and position accordingly.
