About market, TAPE was under pressure from strong consumer spending and British potential exit from EU, but by close market were @ upper end of trading range. Internals were strong all over. Internal strength of the TAPE was evident even @ low of the day.Diversified portfolios are working better as sectors rotate on a daily basis. Internal strength may take this TAPE to new all time highs in short order.

Hi Saleem,

Sold BAC @ 14.80

Despite the prospects of higher short term interest rates, the significant yield curve flattening has me worried. At the very least, it likely limits the upside of the banks either in perception or reality. The data this week has not been as robust as other data recently, so I wonder if we are in a "one and done" scenario, which likely won't help much. Also, the higher likelihood of Brexit could weigh on overall sentiment.

I like the idea of individual stories much better than mostly generic economic plays here.
