Dead flat to start the morning but you never know, of course, where it is going to end up and thats why you have to watch every minute. I promise. Take a look at this. The nasdaq in record territory, fueled of course by big tech and for those of you who wonder why we talk about these stocks so much, here is why. They are all going to open at record highs, starting with amazon. Today will make six days in a row that it has hit an alltime high. Apple at 384 bucks, that stock up 40 in a month. Microsoft, 215.
