Hey Guys,
The market has been relatively flat the last couple days after the big green day on Monday. Yesterday, the S&P 500 had the smallest range we've seen since a day back in January. It's as if the market is taking a rare breath during a month of volatility.
My SJM stock position reached its time limit, so I manually closed it at the opening bell. It locked in a small profit.
The healthcare sector took an industry-wide hit yesterday. I have a number of stock and option positions in that sector, and that impacted those positions negatively. As always, though, I'm staying calm and patient. The trades aren't over until they're over. And beyond that, I realize that there will be losing trades at times.
There haven't been any new trades yet today. I have buy limit orders in for the stocks and options at the top of the watch list. None are especially close to getting filled at this moment.
If you have any questions or feedback, I'd love to hear from you.
