Ideas

Fed interest rate pause turned out to be a non-event. Most everything closed slightly in the red - stocks, bonds, dollar, metals. The rest of the week these sectors will go there separate ways.

INTV short at 6. Acting weak.

NAT New high on okay volume. 10.7% short interest. Shipping stocks have been strong.
PXP At resistance at 46 where it has failed before.
VIP Down .66, overbought, triple top, turning down. Had gone up on light volume. Sell.
WAFR Large selling spikes, below 50 day moving average. Short.
GT 11.67. Last week gapped up through 50 day moving average (Marc buy indicator) with volume. Wait for close over 12 to buy.
DSTI Harry Boxer favorite. Failed at 50 day moving average yesterday. Going lower, could be a short.
