OJ;

I'm long May MSFT calls. With the split, possible settlement talk in the air, new high, ect it seemed like a relatively safe bet. Of course we all know how relatives can be. The problem is what this thread has highlighted so clearly. Broad divergence between the market in general and the leaders, misc worries on many fronts.

There are many people here who have studied the market and indicators much longer than I, but I can find no clear indicators. At this time the best bet seems to be going with the trend. Hope it goes well for you.

MJ

Hi Jerry...Well I held my trading position on MSFT based on todays action and think the retail investors/general public/laggards will be buying stocks based on todays evening news/10k headlines. That could move us somewhat higher but I will look to sell into that strength...Still holding my long term position in MSFT though...

Good Investing to you...
