The Market's Stagnant, But Our Portfolio Sure Isn't
No ratings
Well, that was a fairly lethargic start to the trading week. Though stocks certainly could have fared worse, they also could have fared better. I suspect traders are still mostly stuck on the fence, unsure as to the market's true undertow. Rather than take a swing in either direction, they were content to simply sit on their hands. Volume was quite light today too, underscoring the theory.
You know what though? While the market as a whole wasn't impressive on Monday, we had a couple of stock picks make some surprisingly big gains. Let's just show you where we are with those first, since we want to raise our stop levels on them. We'll take care of the marketwide stuff in a moment.
