About market, TAPE anticipated and greeted Fed hike and statement with predictable moves, before UP 350 points on DOW then lost that then moved UP almost 300 points then lost that and closed down 351 points after being down 500 points prior to close. IF you listen to market vs how technicians and traders felt, it was a classic case of market being right. My interpretation of market and TAPE is Fed have it perfect that resulted in TAPE recovering from 500 loss and closing @ 351. Noticed VIX was unchanged on such a bad decision by Fed, VIX disagrees and I agree with VIX & FED.

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

Hi Saleem,

Bought TENB @ 21.99

I think it already took its pain, and valuation is supported here. There's 10% more downside possible if the market keeps falling though.

Hi Saleem,

Bought VICR @ 34.47

It just refuses to drop and does have a bright future. Maybe investors are looking behind this weak patch towards that.
