I still prefer technology stocks. The tech sector is still the place were the earnings momentum is. |
I think we'll probably see an up session in the market over the next several days. |

The underlying interest rate picture and liquidity picture is starting to improve significantly. |
We're starting to put in a bottom I think in the Nasdaq, but it's not quite there yet. We're going to probably stagger around and see some volatility over the next week or so. |
