About market, TAPE was under mild selling pressure after 3 days of gains, there is lot of uncertainty going into G 20 meeting when it comes to China US trade issues. Internals were negative. Market seems to have found support after Fed changed its interest hike definition. There is only a closing BLOG on Friday's around 7 PM.

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

Hi Explorer,

Unfortunately, I had obligations and so didn't get to listen to either conference call yet, and might be too tired to try tonight. I might act on the stocks anyways tomorrow though, especially trying to get back SPLK if it fades the gap open higher.

Hi Saleem,

I find myself with cash when I don't want it. I need to find some new picks haha!

I also am really short on cloud exposure right now, and I'm not quite sure how that happened...

Hi Saleem,

Added a small amount to LQDA @ 21.90

I think it has a glide path into year end with positive sentiment, lack of selling interest due to pre-lockup status still, and no big catalysts until 2019 (which removes the chance of a bad outcome for now).

Hi Saleem,

Bought DHI @ 36.98

I think something's brewing with housing here after a serious pause in buying over the last few months. I think costs in both materials and labor are abating somewhat, and rates are moving back down. This should provide a nice tailwind to a currently under-housed generation of people.

Hi Saleem,

Bought SWKS @ 72.01

As you probably know, this is one of my favorite semiconductor companies. It has the inside track on the 5G explosion coming, and I think the chart signals it has bottomed.
