Being long. The index funds churned out about 1% today. I’m still there.

HSKA – Bounced a little bit today.

What Didn’t Work Today

My home builder lottery option trades are slowing going down the tubes…

MDT call options are also dwindling. I’m considering sucking it up and taking the loss there which stands at 60%.

What Will Hopefully Work Soon

August EBAY 32.5 calls are up 26%. I added the August EBAY 35 calls today. They are going to get pinched tomorrow with the Nasdaq likely having some trouble tomorrow due to INTC and YHOO having some sour earning reports. Tomorrow will probably be a buy though. EBAY reports after the close tomorrow. I’m overloaded on EBAY, so if it goes up on Friday, your favorite StockRake author will be celebrating this weekend.

Remember my low PE buy candidates? Sure you don’t. Here’s the list I posted back in late April.  75% of the list are kicking ass, while the one you would most likely not have purchased anyways has stagnated.

Oh yeh and DOW closed above 14,000.
