About market, TAPE continued its bull run with buying interest, Dow made it into another all time high @ close. Many stocks are outperforming overall market. Diversification is key to making money in this TAPE, some stocks rest for a day, then jump to new all time highs. Show conviction and patience in letting profit run. Some stocks can be for long term but most should be for near term strategy.

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

Hi Saleem,

Sold that last bit of TRIL @ 7.10

Hi Saleem,

I'd sell ZYNE if I could. Trump's comments about drug prices should shake the whole sector, probably through the rest of the year.

Hi Saleem,

I am really eyeing OCLR here. I think they'll see a rush of orders by Chinese customers ahead of any potential restrictions or tariffs in trade.

Hi Saleem,

Took a speculative size (5%) position in OCLR @ 8.42

The huge 100G build-out in the world is in the early stages and this company is well positioned. Trade fears are a concern, hence the 5% weight.

Hi Stocktrader,

Sold TRIL @ 6.92. You are right, the stock might go further down. The price action shows that the people are selling the stock. I try to get a better price, but in vain. It is always good to take a loss and move on. Good luck with your trade.

Hi Saleem,

Yes, PI was a good buy at the right time. Nice to have a little extra booster as the year winds down.

Hi Joseph,

TRIL was definitely disappointing. Good to move on when the story has faded. If the story changes, we can revisit.

Hi Saleem,

The action today is the least healthy in this run. It reeks of that kind of panic buying we see at a top. I am looking to pare back positions.

Hi Stocktrader,

You have a huge reason to protect your gains.....take a back seat for 16 trading days.

Good luck in sell sell sell.

Hi Saleem,

I looked at my positions. I'm not really uncomfortable with any of the big positions' valuations. The worst of the group are FDX PI ZYNE CY OCLR and only FDX and CY are eligible for non-restrictive sale today. FDX is part of the broad transport group breakout, so possibly has more room to run, plus doesn't move fast enough to hurt me too badly in the event of a decline. As for CY, it's a smaller position and has speculative characteristics which are desirable. I guess I'm on hold for today...

Portfolio: MET(2x), LYB FDX M CHK PI SPLK, TECK, ZYNE CY OCLR, cash 2.2%
