About market, TAPE was given not one but 2 jolt by US policy action, first auto tariff of 25% threat then cancellation of visit to Singapore in the middle of trading, Down tanked almost 300 points but indices fought back to highest level almost erasing all the losses, fractional loss on the day, a very good sign that market wants to go higher. There is only a closing BLOG on Friday's around 7 PM.

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

Hi Saleem,

Bought RCL @ 106.78

I've kept my eye on this even as they have fallen on hard times of late. I think the customer spend is doing well, but fears of overcapacity and fuel costs have been holding it back. I think maybe we see relief on the fuel side, and overcapacity fears overblown, potentially putting the stock back in play.

Hi Saleem,

I sold BILI to take profits, and because I was uncomfortable with their very high percentage of gaming revenue which I think is less predictable and susceptible to significant up/down trends.

Hi Stocktrader,

It is always about comfort level with any stock...BILI or others, you did the right thing based on your analysis.

Hi Saleem,

Bought HAL @ 49.58

I think today is more of a panic sell than thoughtful price discovery. I'd been waiting to look for an entry, and I think there's a lot of catalysts that could drive oil back higher again including robust demand in the world and underinvested dyanmics for so many years now.
