Basket of Shorts Covered

Housekeeping item.

Into the afternoon swoon I have covered the basket of high-octane/beta shorts I recently put on.

Some of the stocks in the basket include $MU, $AMAT, $SNDK, $AVGO, $MRVL and $TSM.

As I have noted in the Comments Section, this strategy is not recommended for home gamers!

Speculative Short Basket Doubled

I doubled the size of my speculative short basket this morning — and not for most homegamers.

My half life on these baskets are short and I am disciplined as this package includes such high-octane stocks as $SNDK, $MU, $AMD, $AMAT, $MRVL and $TSM among others!

In all likelihood I will cover the package by the end of the day — especially if the market averages keep falling.
