Don't Chase Facebook

The market is slightly extended in the short-term and Facebook's positive earnings reaction is adding a little more fuel to the fire.  Facebook is up $12 dollars pre-market, this is a huge gap for a stock that has 2.3 billion shares in the float. Chances of Facebook digesting this gap up for a few weeks is a high probability event, don't chase it.

With the market so extended in the short-term, good risk-reward swing set-ups are drying up. There aren't many out there right now. Over the next 5-days or so I will be extremely selective with new buys.

We are in the middle of earnings season and it's going to heat up next week with over 1,400 stocks reporting, check the earnings date for your holdings and potential buys. Holding through earnings is a crap shoot.

We live in a world in which we are bombarded with information, tweets, blogs, etc., content is the new salesman, content is the new marketing, content is the new networking. With information being so readily available, bloggers try to differentiate themselves with their writing skills, volume, and consistency, putting out blog posts to meet quotas. We are seeking to stand out from the crowd by showing performance, by taking all the information and seeking alpha, that’s the sole purpose of the blog. It won’t always be pretty; it’s never easy, and performance is spotty, but we seek superior risk-adjusted returns, not notoriety for our writing skills.  If this is something you can relate to, then this blog is for you.
