MARKET NOTE:
Q3 GDP fell from the prior quarter but managed to beat estimates. Still, slowing growth is weighing on the minds of traders. Fortunately, Visa (V) has given a lift to the Dow Jones based on its latest quarterly report. Issues certainly remain in the stock market, but the bulls are trying as best they can to continue this 5 1/2 year bull market. I'd continue to stay focused on the long side, but with continued caution.
ADDITIONS TO WATCH LISTS:
There are no additions to our Watch Lists today.
BRIEF COMMENTS ON SELECT WATCH LIST STOCKS:
Short Watch List:
There are no Short Watch List stocks at this time.
Large Cap Watch List:
PLL - Has triggered our 90.25 target. We'll keep this one on our Watch List for possible re-entry later.
SPR - REMOVING THIS ONE FROM OUR WATCH LIST AS IT REPORTS EARNINGS ON FRIDAY. GREAT TRADE!!!
Mid Cap Watch List:
MLNX - Approached our 42.00 closing stop, but has reversed thus far, trying to print a hammer on its rising 50 day SMA.
VEEV - Bouncing off 20 day EMA support once again.
Small Cap Watch List:
NX - Our target of 19.35 has already been triggered, but the positive action here continues. Looks to be heading for 21.00, although a pullback to test that rising 20 day EMA could occur at any time.
DELETIONS FROM OUR WATCH LISTS:
WE ARE REMOVING SPR as it reports its quarterly results on Friday. There are no other deletions today unless closing stops are triggered.
Happy trading!
