Voltaire,

Happy Friday,

The porch is full of your friends looking for some guidance. Can you give us, if you like, a brief summary of your current positions (QCOM stock, options, and leaps, cash, cree, etc).

I hope this was not asking too much or in your mind too personal.

Take care,

Have a great weekend,

GGamer

V, you scare me when you get mad. But speaking as a little chump, don't let it get to ya! After recently reading "Liars Poker", I'm convinced that it's logical people like you and I that will end up beating those jerk-off traders.... how did Lewis put it?

'It's a traders job to convince two a$$holes that one of them paid too much for their bond and the other one is getting a bargain for paying more than the other a$$ sold it for!?'

Have a great weekend!

most interesting stock market in my memory
interest rates are hurting Dow stocks, if any
the Dusty Dow stocks lack one critical element -- strong growth

one might conclude a mild recession for non-tech stocks and a boom in tech stocks, quite the incongruous development, or is it?.. in revolutions, the old guard is displaced

big deal today, Naz selling off
NazComp had a breakout week, establishing new highs
with Russell2 making new highs this week, got confirmation
I noticed several fave smallcaps up today, while largecaps dropped
so what? Cisco came all the way down to 130, but up for week
Microsoft can eat shit; their software is shit

on QCOM, we have an "inside week" technically
lows were no worse than last week (perhaps 3/4 lower)
highs were not quite 140, less than last week
this is a green light signal to the pros
they look for a signal that the stock "wont get any cheaper"
they got it

interesting ratios on this QCOM correction
from 180 down to 110, and recovered 50% to mid/high 140's
lost 3/8 back down to 132, where we sit
we are now showing zero potential energy in the chart
we are "resting" with reduced volume
we are sitting within a couple points of the 20day Moving Avg
we are just above the 50day MA
a couple up days and we mark a MACD crossover

we now are displaying an upchannel lower boundary linking 110 and 132 in the last three weeks

we have a real live event next Thursday with analyst meeting
I recall the last big one was Nov2-4 timeframe with HDR demo
I will be happy with 25% the impact on our stock price this time

what a dull week, just what I needed
/ Jim

Well, today was the day to back up the truck as I had suggested. Sure hope you're right and these DOW guys don't mess up the NAZ too much. We've now had 2 10% corrections in the NAZ and 1 10% correctoin in the DOW (S&P probably coming on Mon/Tues). I suppose we should be glad that QCOM didn't tank more.

When do we get a head fake to the upside. I'll take any excuse for an up substantial (+10) day for QCOM.
