About market, TAPE went into overdrive and improved its technical picture, DOW is above both 200 DMA & 50 DMA, S&P 500 above 200 DMA and very close to 50 DMA, Nasdaq above 200 DMA, these are tell tale of DOW leading other indices into higher ground. Internals were mostly positive and strongest I have seen in a while.

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

Hi Saleem,

Today is a big day. We ran right back up to resistance from the failed rally attempt we had in mid-October, so we are at a natural point to take some profits. However, the Fed statement today could give indications on how hawkish they remain or if maybe some of the slightly weaker data points on growth and inflation could bring them back more toward neutral. I will be closely watching at 2pm ET to see if my favorite stocks can indeed rally into year end.

Hi Stocktrader,

I do not expect any rate increase today.

Fed in future will do what it needs to do....

A song comes to my mind

" future is not ours to see "

Good luck with your 2 PM decision...

Dipping my toe back into some names.

Hi Saleem,

Bought CSOD @ 52.99

They continue to turn the corner with respect to business model momentum and the new learning products are gaining more traction and really expand the TAM. Although gains might be slow here without a buyout, I think the downside is very limited and upside continues to grow. It's kind of my "defensive" cloud play haha :)

Hi Saleem,

Bought VICR @ 39.54

This was probably one of the more exciting conference calls I listened to this season so far as they are so in the early innings of their ramp into a chip supplier powerhouse. I think they have both massive future earnings power and buyout potential as the transition to 48V chips is only getting started.

Hi Saleem,

Bought SAIL @ 25.90

After smoothing for a *pull-forward* deal, this was another beat and raise quarter for SAIL. Their story is as powerful as ever as government and corporations desperately need identity governance to protect all their data. I still like their prospects going forward and profitability is surprisingly nice.

Hi Saleem,

Bought TENB @ 31.53

The last of my "must haves", these guys are helping corporations assess and understand their vulnerabilities on every device in a quickly changing landscape. They showed impressive growth last quarter and appear to be gaining momentum.
