This is one powerful market, to have the Dow come swarming back up after all the bad news on Nok and Iraq.

There is investment money available, as indicated by all the IPO's coming out recently.

I am not running any hot stocks at this time , kind of fully invested. Siri is doing OK so will be contented with that one.
