About market, TAPE continued its run higher and closed @ new high of this move. Indices closed @ its high of the day and internals were strong. Many traders are in disbelief about this move and are waiting for averages to plunge, it may be a very long wait. This TAPE has a feel of a very strong and sharp quick move, it is not too late to change strategy and be a believer in this bull tape.

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

Hi Stocktrader,

Good day to buy as fear of jobs report takes hold.

Hi Saleem,

Generally I agree with buying the Thursday before the jobs report--often good deals on the uncertainty. This market, however, I think is not ready for another leg up just yet, especially in some of the vicious gainers we've seen in recent weeks (FCX a prime example). I do hope to find some more opportunities on even a shallow pullback though.

Hi Saleem,

Good luck with more SBUX.

I'm still eyeing some stocks for re-purchase hence my decent amount of cash on hand currently. HUN and SPLK could be immediate buys if they pull back enough. DKS and FDX I'm looking to enter after earnings if they report poor quarters.
