The market was weak at the open, but, managed to bounce back. However, immediately after the Fed minutes were released, the market suffered a quick drop. It paddled back up in the last hour to closed flat, flat and mixed. Techs were on the weak side with semiconductors getting hammered; mining stocks, on the other [...]

August 22, 2010 – 7:43 pm
Last weekend, in my Market Forecast, I forecasted, "For the new week, the latest development in the charts are certainly not bullish. However, it may not necessarily dictate a breakdown. If SPX 1080 does not hold, the next support is 1060, set back in mid-July. The market could still be range-bound, and, is very mixed." As [...]

We traded this week beautifully and ended with 100% of our trades in the GR$$N. We locked in profits on Monday and Wednesday; stayed light on Thursday, [...]
Hammer Time! Markets Deflect Poor Jobs Report
August 7, 2010 – 3:53 pm
What a relief! After that awful jobs report it certainly seemed as if the rally started Monday was going to fizzle out, and maybe break some support levels. Well, the dip buyers had other things in mind. Volume was big early in the session, of course many bailing out on stocks as the BLS released [...]
A Day Of Huge Gains! SPX, Nasdaq, PCLN, POT, AGU, MOS, CF, GOOG, GS, CLF, FSLR, LVS
August 4, 2010 – 4:23 pm
The market pushed higher today as investors cheered better economic data, such as improvement in private employment. The broader market itself only advanced slightly, as SPX added just +6.78 points. But, certain stocks really went higher, including most of our positions. PCLN was the headline grabber. After last night’s blowout earnings and bullish guidance, PCLN jumped [...]

Lamentations on Google
July 19, 2010 – 2:15 pm
The market unraveled. There were signs it was going to happen. Key among them was the behavior of Google before, during, and after its earnings release. I especially like the phrasing of the update in the Financial Post on Friday morning: "Responses to second quarter earnings reports released overnight were disturbing." GOOG reported second quarter [...]
