About market, TAPE was down sharply and closed @ high of the day 2766 area was the support for S&P 500. Most sectors went UP. Friday trading depends on High Frequency Traders but today's TAPE eliminated fears created by vested interest. Internals were mixed.

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

Hi Saleem,

Sold CHGG @ 65.87 to take profits

Also want to move away from the highly overbought stocks for a while. I will likely sell DKNG by close also.

Hi Saleem,

Bought SQ @ 78.72

With new financial technology and some economic sensitivity, it could be the right play at the re-openings tentatively happen.

Hi Saleem,

Bought WEN @ 20.88

It seems the meat issue will be temporary, and their very recent breakfast offering provides a catalyst for market share gains. I think they are a long term winner after some restaurants are forced to permanently close.

Hi Saleem,

Bought HUBS @ 186.47

An economic re-opening benefits this company significantly. I still think they are an acquisition target for a larger player too.
