Mish's Daily
By Mish Schneider
The Talking Heads
Today’s commentary prepared by Jonathan Griffin, Assistant Director of Trading Education and Research at Marketgauge.
All last week, Mish wrote extensively about holding onto the older more established long positions looking for profit targets, on new long trades, tightening the trading timeframes looking for the “quick “ money and looking for shorts as hedges when applicable.
All turned out as stellar advice.
Mish will be back on Monday with more commentary as we head towards the end of a tumultuous 2014!
See below for my comments on the indices and various sectors and groups.
