About market, TAPE was under mild selling pressure again on interest rate hike anxiety and oil slumping highest % loss in 13 months.Internals remains weak. Job picture was pretty strong vs consensus in private sector job growth, this keeps Friday's jobs report under extreme focus. This is a very orderly mild selling with eager buyers, thus no real technical damage.Keep an eye on buying opportunities in this mini sell off.

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

Hi Saleem,

Bought Z @ 35.24

It has been showing strength despite the market pullback and rates rising. Now it appears on the verge of a breakout. I'll get back involved and see what happens.
