Here come the superman2006, ok let me do some analysis...

Mmmm...........from End Dec 14 to Now. There is a pattens spotted start with *A.............* Triangle.

1970 level has the chance of breakdown (70%) due to buy orders is used up liao. Yup...something like that.

Wah, really trading within that ascending triangle... Hopefully it can break the 2100 for S&P(INX), DJI 18000...

Gild has gone past $106, next resistance at $108, still a good buy in my book.

MAIN finally rises above $30 since the oil plunge drag it down even though it has little exposure. =)

LINE has gone way above $11, good to keep for it's huge dividends though a cut is never too far away. =)

IDRA has barely survived $4 after reaching $5.30 at one point. Still holding.

MSFT has stabilised after the recent disappointing results.

BRK.B has recovered quite a bit since I recommended to buy at the $144 level. $148 now. In fact, I picked the bottom, haha, rare case.

AAPL has taken a break since it's outstanding result, waiting to see if it can break $120.

JNJ is still struggling at the $100+ point since July 2014.

Overall the S&P, DJI, Nasdaq is still showing bullish trend even as volatility has spiked.

What do you guys think of FRO? Was thinking of punting on this one a few days back, then 2 days ago it went up by 12% i think but last night down 3%.

Not in my watchlist, can't comment much.
Chart does shows bullish trend. Support at $2.30. Resistance is hard to say.

This is what a ton of people are thinking, read the comments.

KMI can hold long term, they say will raise dividend by 10%+ per year till 2019-20. I buy more on dips. Of course, still need to see how they cope with the oil plunge, but so far so good, everything is humming along as they expected.

XOM revenues and earnings down 21%...

Disney, will add more on dips, the business is superb as far as one can see. Until Marvel is no longer popular, Disney will always have a solid baseline, with any other movie upside a bonus. The marvel franchise is a stronghold every single year until 2019-20.

GILD, added at $96.90.

AAPL has taken a break since it's outstanding result, waiting to see if it can break $120.

It has come to pass, $120! What's next?
According to the chart, $105/6 is a support.
According to the trend, which I'm a noob at, it's slowly building a upward support, which the next one will not be below $110.
I don't play the take profit and run game with AAPL, but I would enter at anywhere near $110 level.

Target price is unlimited. Why? Breaks 52 week high, in fact all time high.
It's bull run hasn't stopped since June 2013, taking on a big upward trend since April 2014.

US market dived in the last 1/2 hour of the trading period, due to ECB's suspension of the Greek debt waiver.

I pick mostly blue chips, not difficult. Just need to pick up on their news once in a while like MCD, that MCD is cannot make it.
But having said that, the day I dumped MCD, they immediately changed CEO, which also tells you patience is important. I don't regret dumping MCD now, because more likely than not it will take 2-3 quarter to turn it's business around.

Also, the blue chips has loads of comments in seeking alpha, thereby providing a clear picture of what the general investing public view a particular counter. That to me is the gem. The bear/bull fan all come together and place their argument in that caged box. They are mostly financially strong people who use numbers and figures to argue instead of 'feelings'.

Locally, there isn't such a platform nor a knowledgeable crowd who is willing to share their bull/bear thesis. Even VB or SJ, SV forums are lacking. I'm not a financially literate person, reading the Financial statement is not my forte, digesting other people's thesis is what I prefer.

Put it another way, it will be impossible for me to cherry pick from 800 companies after going through their quarterly or annual reports of their financial health. By the time I finish 20 companies, it will be the next quarter already.

Oh and for DIS, your guess is as good as mine. I think we need to wait for a new support now that $100 is breached.
