Market Madness

I'm still maintaining my position in Holly Corportation (HOC) and I am actually up over 16% since my last posting. I am also up approx 23% with the Australian ETF (EWA). I ended my position in Aluminum Corp of China (ACH) with a nice 33% gain. Got in at $26.00 and was out at $34 and some change. I still like this company and will keep an eye out and can hopefully get in again at a lower price. China will be a force to reckon with up through the 2008 Summer Olympics. After that, I will take a wait and see approach. Any thoughts from fellow investors?

DOW 13,000 and Beyoooooond

Wow!!! What can anybody say about the Dow closing at 13,089. I must say I did not expect this to happen this week at all. I'm hoping we can maintain this level, but time will tell over the long run. I established another position in a smaller refiner Holly Corporation (NYSE: HOC). Today it was a benefactor of the nice trend upward and increased by over 3% to $64.30, but was down a few sheckels in afterhours trading. Got a softball tournament this weekend and amazingly it should be in the 70's here in lovely Colorado. I will still post on the Investor's Business Daily, in which, HOC and ACH are still listed within the IBD 100.
