Today is what I'd describe as a 1% true selling day. All major averages are down about 1%. It is too early to tell whether it is a change in trend or just a 1 day sell-off but it is important to take some money off the table and look for opportunities in the coming days. Ritten: Get William O'Neil's book on How to make money in stocks for fundamental analysis and Secrets of Profiting in Bull and Bear Market from Stan Weinsten for technical analysis. Other wo really good books are How I made 2 million in Stock market by Darvas and How I trade for a iving by Gary Smith. I have read those all and they are all good but I like Gary Smith the best.
