About market, TAPE was under renewed selling pressure due to upcoming fear of trade war, market friendly image is being tarnished with Steel & aluminum tariffs being imposed on every country who are exporting those items. Dow was down a sharp 586 points @ low of the day but recovered a bit to down 420 points. Nasdaq went below 50 DMA but recovered to close above, it could easily go below and close there. There is only a closing BLOG on Friday's around 7 PM.

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

Hi Saleem,

Bought MCHP @ 92.50

I think they paid a good price for a nicely accretive acquisition with good synergies.

Hi Saleem,

Bought TWTR @ 31.67

This has become a company with resurgent momentum. I thought I'd take a chance on this market pullback.

Hi Saleem,

Bought X @ 43.61

It seems like the tariffs will indeed go through, and should benefit X the most. I'll use this dip to buy.

Hi Saleem,

Bought TDOC @ 40.43

Heavy short interest, a new catalyst in the MSFT expanded collaboration, and chart breakout after a long base build could provide a nice upside here.
