todays trade

nothing yet. there are a couple things on my radar,possibly profit taking with todays huge run up. Ihavent pulled the trigger yet though. My master limited partnerships seem to be sitting todays rally out so Im not having as good of a day as i would predict.

right now im short AMZN,GMCR and NFLX.

sears would be a possible short but after the 25% decline last week i think i may have missed the boat. Its a crappy company but I dont think the risk reward is there right now. as to BOA I assume you mean BAC (bank of america). that is actually one of my picks for the best preforming stock in 2012. I look at BAC as an eithe or stock. either its worthless or its a $20 stock. my gut says its a $20 stock. yes they have problems,especially with countrywide but I dont think the problems are severe enough to destroy the stock. Im actually looking at BAC-L a prefered stock of BAC. currently its yielding 9%. I may also but some BAC as a spec although not today after a 5% rally
