And here comes the relief rally predicated upon the not-horrid news flow out of Japan. That’s not to say the news flow isn’t tragic and worrisome. We’ve got a nice, wide rally to start the day but I don’t expect we’ll get a whole lot

The DJIA has again rallied more than 100 points intraday off its lows…and just starting on the contra-hour. I was actually hoping that we’d get down to 11500 or so today so I could really step up the buying, but as it is, I’ve continued my disciplined,

Bought some Apple common and some more Riverbed. Markets are freaking out over the reality that Japan’s nuclear problems are indeed worse than the Japanese government had been letting on. I’ll look to buy more every 100 points lower for now and I’ll be more aggressive each tranche in.

And the contra-hour was a strong one today, with the DJIA rallying more than a hundred points from its intraday lows and cutting its daily loss in half. I’ll continue to step up the buying into any coming weakness. I’m walking around with butterflies in my stomach as

I’ve bought some common stock in Celestica, Cypress and Nokia, as planned. I’m as nervous as any other trader about the downside possibilities if this Japan nuclear crisis gets any more extreme than it already has — if you even believe that the governments aren’t downplaying the contamination

Yesterday after the market close I said that if we had had a down 2% day I probably would have bought more stocks yesterday. Well we have that 2% close down day this morning as the world wakes up two more nuclear headlines out of Japan. I am indeed looking

Nuclear fears are back. But unlike in the Cold War, it’s natural disasters and not the fear of man-made catastrophe that’s the driver of those fears today. Japan’s tragedy remains the primary catalyst and focus of these markets, and until we get some lock down on the

Take a look at this 5-day DJIA chart and you’ll see we’re just about the same levels we were late last week when I stepped up and bought a double tranche in some of my longs. I get asked all the time how a new subscriber to Revolution

In a general sense, my mission is always to find the best companies in the fastest growing sectors and invest in their stocks when they are cheap and to find the worst companies in declining sectors and short them when they are way overvalued. More specifically for the last year,
