    Hi Saleem,

    Good luck with the swap.

    AMD is crazy volatile for such a highly traded stock.

    Hi Saleem,

    Sold SWKS @ 69.36

    Despite what looks like a bottoming pattern on the chart, I think I might be too early as semi estimates appear to keep coming down.

    Added to PLAN @ 28.12

    I didn't get my full amount yesterday due to low cash, so I filled up a bit here.

    Bought COUP @ 61.72

    Another company with a unique niche and after reporting a great quarter.

    Hi Saleem,

    Trimmed a little DHI @ 37.18 to raise cash

    Despite good price action, the outlook is still troubling even with the lower rates.

    Added to COUP @ 61.59

    I had been a bit short on cash, but this completes the position sizing.

    Hi Saleem,

    Market is bleeding again. It is more so creating opportunities and could recover in a flash since there is no inherent weakness in the US economy. The geopolitical aspects, trade/tariff noise is taking its toll. Interest rate element is settling down now.

    I am invested although, down in value in the last few sessions.

    Stocktrader, I bought COUP too @60.75 and added some of TRIL (too oversold-. ASH was not too bad for TRIL - Stock is highly manipulated though..).

    Happy Weekend!

    Thanks
