The stock market was lower today as I thought it would be in my weekend update. Continue watching for the low $100’s on Adanced Micro Devices (AMD). It was $120 after earnings yesterday but closed under $110 Wednesday. That circa $102 area is one I will be monitoring closely for a potential buy level.
Another of my long favorites was Starcucks (SBUX), which was one of the few stocks up in a sea of red today. Continue to keep a close eye here for a buy set up.
Neither AMD nor SBUX do I consider a buy at current levels to be clear. The other stock on my radar was OXY. Going to take OXY off my list and put it on the shelf for now.


On the short side I like NIKE (NKE). If we get more back and fill to the upside I will very likely wade in short here. I don’t mind being long a stock and short another stock at the same time! Stock Market Trivia … The long one stock, short another stock, was the origin of the name “hedge” fund.
Thanks,
Joe
