Will stick with ULTA (long) again this week, although it may the wrong choice (luck rarely does not run for very long).

Well, we are off and running, but in a negative market. Hope the darn thing can find a way to get positive once again.
Be glad when all the election "crap" is over and done, and hopefully most things can get back to normal (if at all possible).

Cheer up, gals, the week has several more days to run. You may get lucky yet. Even ULTA with its outstanding prospects is off to a bumbling start.
Perhaps this just was not meant to be our week?

well, my prediction for my horse (DFRG) is that his 3 day ( F/M/Tue.) charging in front will be ending soon; but I hope he'll end up somewhere in the middle ..... hopefully, not the last place. ...... at Friday's finish line. |
