BOTTOM LINE: The Portfolio finished higher today on gains in my Software, Computer, Wireless and Internet longs and Oil Tanker, Base Metal shorts. I did not trade in the afternoon, thus leaving the Portfolio 100% net long. The tone of the market strengthened into the afternoon as the advance/decline finished modestly higher, almost every sector rose and volume was average. Measures of investor anxiety were lower into the close. Overall, today’s market action was positive considering recent gains and weaker economic reports. The fact that the dollar rose today on weaker economic reports suggests further gains for the currency near-term.
