Yes, don't be fooled by our journal title again!    On the contrary, this market has been anything but a disappointment.     We had a "mild" pullback early on into the middle of our 972-966 intraday note for a bid support.    It's considered mild because we really haven't even seen this mkt down more than 7 or 8 pts on SPX intraday in quite a while.  Believe it or not, today’s -2.5 pts SPX decline was the biggest in over 2 weeks!!.  So when this mkt was pulling back early on, we were excited and hoping that we may be able to get some stock cheap for once.  But…

Here comes the disappointment.   Things just don't seem to stay "low" for long these days and you only had a chance for a handful of light dips.  We had plenty of reason to dip (notably CC #), but long demand came in the form of an underlying bid.    Again, this is becoming a normal phenomenon with this market these days.     Little rants aside, this market has once again exhibited the kind of strength that is typical of a strong bull market.    Dip buying will be the game!   Plays like HITK SWI  don’t even give us a chance pause before they inch higher,  these names actually were climbing to 5-10% gains and new highs while market dipped.   HITK, for some reason, turned out to be the best runner among the ones we've covered, so far.     At this point, we do feel it may needs to settle down a bit.    We still have many reports left in the earning season and we won't be surprised to see some exciting reports/reaction surface as a result.   Currently, plays like JDAS  ATHR  ININ  are all developing nicely.  If Nazzy/ Techs come out of their oxygen tanks for some follow through this week these names should benefit.  If there's strength that accompanies a breakout among those plays, we won't be hesitating to chase higher aggressively by adding to positions.

Bottom line, we are pretty choosy as far as plays are concerned.  We do have plenty of earning plays to work with and we'd imagine there's more good ones coming out within the next couple of weeks.   For now, lets just enjoy what this market is offering us.
