About market, TAPE was under selling pressure and took out recent lows. Mass selling in many technology stocks while Oil, Nat Gas Base metals & Gold help up well and saw buying rotation. Many are unwinding their allocation from popular technology names as they have been overbought since pandemic.

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

Hi Stocktrader,

Good luck with more TZA...

Hi Saleem,

Luckily I trade in a retirement portfolio so that there's no immediate capital gains tax issues (but also why I can't specifically short things and have to use those 3x inverse ETFs so that it's a "long" position).

We'll see what the final bill passage looks like for revised corporate profitability calculations.
