This bull market has been going since October 2011 with a slight break in Dec.2011 and June 2012, while unemployment rises and the latest earnings season not fairing well with lowered analyst earnings projections.
I am in the camp that the U.S. stock market is being heavily manipulated. You have the U.S Fed chairman saying that they are holding off on QE 3, but they are lying and in the background they are injecting more printed money to prop up the stock market.
I am glad Bloomberg is recognizing that the tech earnings hasn’t been that great. I’ve been noticing this and trying to figure out the disconnect between what is going on with the NASDAQ. The majority of tech reporting bad earnings but the NASDAQ is still at lofty levels of 2900…there is a big disconnect here.
This 1 hour audio book is definitely worth a listen by anyone wishing to achieve in the endeavor of trading or investing. If can get past 2 years without blowing your account, you are on your way.

I recently closed off a few AMD PUT option contracts/LEAPS. These were AMD PUTS for January 2014 at a strike price of $4.00. I purchased these when AMD’s share was trading around $6.75 (contract price was $0.53) and sold the contracts when AMD’s share price hit $4.26 (contract price was $0.91). See above MetaStock chart.
