Greetings,

Last week was another negative week in the equities market in general. As a result, none of my stock positions advanced enough to close or exit the trade.

In fact, BBBY at one point earlier in the week was in positive territory for a brief moment before tumbling by weeks end to the mid $37.00 range. TEK also fell lower as many stocks in the market did last week. The DOW and most all the indexes fell lower for the week. Much of this fall is attributed to a combination of three current factors. First being the speculation in the news media that oil could reach as high as $80.00 per barrel. In addition, inflation and a quicker than expected rise in interest rates has many investors concerned and not in a bullish mood.

If BBBY continues to fall back further it may reach a cost average trigger point. MOT and MSFT price levels will also be considered for cost averaging if they fall back further.

I call times like these, "gut check" time. Do you have the stomach for trading? Some of us do and others simply don't. We are all made different and have our different tolerances when it comes to money. I cope with negative market results by stepping back and looking at the big picture, remembering my long term goals. This exercise puts it all into the right perspective for me. It allows me to relax and not to overreact. It allows me to think clearly and to be methodical. As I've stated before some of my best trade decisions are those you never see. Those are decisions not to trade at this time. Sometimes no action is the best action. And it seems sometimes opportunity is everywhere to make a good trade, but creating that consistent winning trade every time is where the challenge is. I've trained myself to be patient. Let's see what course of action the market dictates this week.

Have a great week,
Anthony
