Hi Saleem,

Sold PAR @ 75.7835

I've been looking at selling this for a while on full valuation and lack of upside for the interim.

Added more TNA @ 42.35

I think small caps after this drop are the best mix of risk/reward in the market.

Hi Saleem,

Sold BITU @ 54.28 on shakeout risk given the extreme over-leveraged positioning in the market

Hi Stocktrader,

Frothy part of market is in trouble thus good riddance of BITU, good luck with TNA....

Got rid of my miniscule foray into QBTS @ $6.02......

Hi Saleem,

I think that's it exactly - froth part of market could get really hurt in this low liquidity time of year. Good luck on your next pick!

Hi Saleem,

Used available cash to buy more TNA @ 41.75

I really like the small cap risk/reward here.
