XLF (financials)
XLF looks to be in a good position to make another move up. After jumping to $35.5 last week, people took profits and drove it back down to test $34. It bounced off $34 and is now above the 20- and 30-day MA, which are curving up. Jumping up from here […]

Good morning! Happy Sunday! I haven’t posted yoga videos for a while. I think this is a good one to do on the weekend. Maybe after your Sunday morning workout? Just to relax and stretch. I especially like the “chest/shoulder expansion” exercise! Enjoy!

Wow, time goes by fast! A new month and a new quarter! Last weekend, I said, “For the new week, I’m looking for the market to test the July highs, which for SPX is around 1550 and for Nasdaq is about 2720. Once the market gets back up to these levels, it might […]

GS Oct 200 calls, […]

The market rallied today. The Dow gained almost +100 points! SPX added +8.21 points, and Nasdaq jumped another +15.58! This rally was actually well-distributed, in that some of the usual leaders just sort of “sat and watched”. For example, GOOG closed down 0.84 points, BIDU lost almost 12, AMZN was flat, […]

The overall market was flat today, but, the techs were strong! Nasdaq closed up +15.5 points; the Dow managed a small gain of +19.59 points, while SPX lost just 0.52.
We continued to cash in on some profits today. We hit a jackpot with FMCN, which gave us an +150% gain in one day! […]

It was very nice meeting you all on Thursday! I had a lot of fun and it was very interesting and educational for me to be able to spend time with you.
Now, you will recall that my alarm clock broke last week and my entire schedule was out of whack! I seemed to have lost […]

Phil and I are doing a new portfolio together. We are calling it Happy 100! This portfolio starts with $100,000. Happy 100 is to be a longer-term portfolio, in which we don’t trade everyday; and, we don’t necessarily need to watch it everyday, either. The main criteria are:
1) further out options, 2 to […]
