Lets check in now with Scott Shellady of trean. Joining us now to talk all about the market. Good monday morning to you today and of course we are facing a holiday week here, so what do you anticipate as far as as far as volumes in the Trading Market . Well volumes are going to be thin. We are not open on thursday. Its the end of the month, you have to be careful these quiet markets tend to be volatile and because theres not a lot of selling behind you its hard to get short. Quiet markets tend to gravitate sideways to slightly higher, be careful about getting short because you are going to need that calvary to come in, let you out and then sell it back to you. Its an ominous there and like some good advice. Thank you for that scott. Moving on to your plays. Are you doing anything with the s p 500 right now . You know we are.

We think that we dont see any decent Economic Indicators that are gonna make a change our mind about the economy still. Staying difficult and Going Forward we also have bought some 10 year treasure puts because we think that taper talk is probably going to play with eo worry there. We we bought some 10 year puts and were staying on our s p calls because we think that the Economic Indicators arent going to change, were going to grind higher in equities and a tapered talk is going to drive down those treasurys. Is this a bullish stance new for you . Not really. I mean i have to go with what is going to happen verses what i think its going to happen. Weve gone from Alan Greenspan in 1996 and a rational exuberance to ben burnanke in 2013 in a rational empathy. We set an alltime high on friday and you didnt see it in the news media or the trucks outside like we did the last time around. So im cautious up here you need to be taken some stuff off the table but, there is no reason we have seen any change in the economy and arguably with yellin on the spot. If she sees anything bad what if we put the foot on the gas here. So we have to keep a big eye on it. Well they are taking money off the table on gold. How low will we go here scott . You know what, golds a hadge against inflation. We dont see any inflation, in fact hardly any at all and if we have a deflationary environment, which i think the fed are worried about. How expensive is 1,300 or 12 hundred 50 gold in a deflationary environment. That is pretty expensive. Always a pleasure to have.

You have 5 things you have to consider, 1, figure out how much you need upon retirement right, and this is easier said than done.

Just ahead the Cable Company stock that has a potential buy signal. A trader explains next in chart talk. As we mentioned earlier in the show Cable Companies are talking about coupling. Joining us now is James Ramelli of keene on the market dot com. Happy monday to you and no doubt you are in this to watch for the possibility of a way to make money here, so what do you see on the comcasts side . So, comcast has had some extremely bullish order flows on fridays trading sessions. We saw calls out trade puts almost 10 to one. Thats a huge ratio and some very, very bullish indications that the market expects comcast stock to continue higher. Theyre involved in this deal with twc now and Charter Communications as well. We saw three of those stocks hit higher on friday. It should be a good thing for any of these companies if theres more consolidation in this space. Ill have an upside target in comcast for the end of this year around 52 which is a little bit more than 4 higher from its current levels here. I will be looking to play comcast to the long side at that target. Is comcast a stock you like technically or fundamentally . I like it in both a technical and fundamental sense here. You know we saw the stock having a really good technical set up going into earnings and then pulling back some off of its 52 week highs and then entering a period of consolidation and then breaking out on friday session. That price action that i love to see and i really like the fundamental story behind comcast now as well here. So i think that its kind of a all in long here for me. Im buying with both hands. All right there you go. So is this a long term play or just a quick in and out . I think this could serve as both here. Like i say we can use the Options Market to project upside targets as far out as we want here. I have this 4 percent upside target for the end of this year but, i will be looking to play it further up as we move further out and get into to next years trading.
